Plus, they can process a wide range of materials, including aggregate, asphalt and concrete.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The attachments feature powerful components that allow carrier operators to crush as much as 110 tons of material per hour. The drive system \u2014 two hydraulic motors and a timing belt \u2014 generates the high torque needed for powering the crushing jaw. The attachments also feature a reverse function to easily remove any blockage by pushing material back through the inlet.<\/p>\n<p>Crushing material onsite allows contractors to save on transportation costs to a landfill or processing center since they can fit more material in each truck load. They can also reuse the crushed material onsite as backfill, which reduces the costs associated with hauling in material.<\/p>\n<p>Atlas Copco designed the attachments for high reliability and maximum uptime in challenging worksite conditions. For example, Atlas Copco\u2019s internally mounted drive system eliminates protruding components to minimize the risk of dust entering the hydraulic system and to protect key components from flying debris. Additionally, operators can control the diameter of the crushed materials by easily adjusting the jaw outlet without any special tools. This keeps set-up times to a minimum and allows operators to create varying material sizes.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Atlas Copco Construction Equipment introduces its new generation of bucket crusher attachments that offer higher output and greater reliability than previous models.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"slim_seo":{"title":"Atlas Copco Launches Next-Gen Bucket Crusher Attachments at Bauma 2016 - Attachment News &amp; Announcements - Attachmart.com&#039;s Blog","description":"Atlas Copco Construction Equipment introduces its new generation of bucket crusher attachments that offer higher output and greater reliability than previous mo"},"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1653","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.attachmart.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1653","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.attachmart.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.attachmart.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.attachmart.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.attachmart.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1653"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/www.attachmart.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1653\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1656,"href":"https:\/\/www.attachmart.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1653\/revisions\/1656"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.attachmart.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1653"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.attachmart.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1653"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.attachmart.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1653"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
