The construction industry is one of the largest contributors to global waste. Construction and demolition accounted for roughly 30–40% of the total solid waste stream globally in 2022, and nearly 30% of construction materials end up as waste. This waste takes up space and is expensive to transport to disposal or recycling facilities. It also adds to the project’s costs and increases its environmental impact. Auger Torque’s Cone Crusher Bucket provides a simple and effective solution by turning this job site waste into reusable aggregate—and it never needs to leave the site.
The science is simple: attach the bucket to an excavator, instantly converting it into a mobile crusher. Construction teams can crush waste materials like concrete and bricks directly at the job site, saving money on transportation and reducing their environmental footprint.
The Cone Crusher Bucket is straightforward to use. After attaching it to an excavator, the bucket uses the machine’s hydraulic power to drive a rotating cone. This cone moves inside a fixed outer shell, crushing the materials fed into the bucket. The crushed aggregate is then discharged at the bottom. You can adjust the output size by changing the gap between the cone and the shell, giving you flexibility in the size of the crushed material.
Crushing waste on the job site has never been easier or more effective:
- The Cone Crusher Bucket reduces the volume of waste, making it easier and cheaper to dispose of.
- By processing materials on-site, there’s no need to pay to transport waste to off-site facilities, which saves money.
- Lowering the need to transport waste helps reduce greenhouse gas emissions, making construction projects greener.
- You can adjust the output size to produce different aggregate sizes depending on company needs.
- The bucket easily attaches to various excavators, making it a handy tool for different construction sites.
Construction companies can easily improve their waste management, reduce costs, and build more sustainably with Auger Torque’s Cone Crusher Bucket. It’s versatile, easy to use, cost-efficient, and environmentally friendly, making it a great addition to any construction project.
Key specs:
- Crushing output: The bucket can crush materials into various sizes, from fine gravel to larger aggregate.
- Hydraulic power requirement: The crusher bucket requires a specific hydraulic flow and pressure to work efficiently. These will vary based on the bucket’s size and model.
- Bucket capacity: The capacity determines how much material can be processed at once, affecting the speed and efficiency of crushing.
- Attachment compatibility: The bucket is designed to fit different excavators to be easily added to existing equipment.
