QMS Provides the Cone Crushers and Screens for New FP McCann Quarry Plant

 


Headquartered and based in Northern Ireland, FP McCann is the UK’s largest manufacturer and supplier of precast concrete solutions, owning and operating its own quarries to provide a variety of solutions to its extensive customer base. In 2023, in order to improve its production capabilities, the company upgraded the plant at one of its quarries with the acquisition of two Quarry Manufacturing & Supplies (QMS) cone crushers along with screens for accurate material grading.

FP McCann provides a wide range of sustainable and innovative product solutions that complement its standard package of products and services. This includes an extensive range of quality precast concrete solutions for rail, power and infrastructure and building products as well as architectural and structural products.

The quality and reliability of FP McCann’s products and services are the foundation of its success, with team members constantly developing and improving solutions, whilst striving to exceed customer expectations. The company’s foundations are based on sustained trust with its stakeholders, and by implementing its corporate values, aims to deliver through its products and services the very highest levels of customer focus. In order to achieve this, FP McCann constantly looks at its production capabilities so as to ensure it has the right equipment to do the job. In addition, the company looks to ensure that its equipment not only produces the right materials, at the right time, but also provides an environmentally friendly and cost effective solution.

Due to the excellent relationship that has developed between the company and QMS, when it came to look at upgrading the crushing and screening operation at one of its quarries, the company had little hesitation in selecting solutions from the QMS offering. After a series of site visits and assessing exactly what would provide the most cost effective and efficient solutions for FP McCann’s requirements, QMS proposed supplying 2 of its B-Series cone crushers along a variety of screens. In addition QMS has been selected to provide parts, consumables, and aftermarket care for the crushers, screens and most of the quarry operation.

One of the key features of the B-Series cone crushers is a unique hydraulic system which provides automatic overload protection by allowing the head assembly to drop, permitting the passage of tramp iron and other non-crushable material. The system then automatically returns the head assembly to its original position. The unique design of the hydraulic system means the crusher operates at a definite setting with less setting drift and greater stability throughout the circuit. The crusher setting is instantaneously maintained even after passing a piece of uncrushable material.

In addition to the B4 cone crushers, parts and aftermarket support, a key component of FP McCann’s new quarry plantconsists of 4 screens. These are two 2 m x 7 m double deck screens and two 2 m x 7 m triple deck screens.

Each component of a QMS screen is 100% manufactured and built in-house by QMS, incorporating the latest in design and manufacturing techniques. This commitment to quality and reliability makes the screens a preferred choice for companies seeking efficient and effective screening solutions. One of the key advantages of the screening equipment is the easy maintenance features and quick replacement of screening media, wear liners and spare parts. This design aspect allows for maximised uptime and the enhanced profitability of production, making QMS screens an asset for any quarry screen setup.
