hey guys my name is jason with not baker mining and metals and on today's video we're going to
be crushing up some granite countertop remnants through this jaw crusher and hopper behind me
all right guys so here's an example of some of the stuff we're going to be running today
this is a mix of natural stone quartz countertop remnants broken pieces and we'll run some of
these bigger slabs over here as well so you can see the jaw crusher work we're going to run two
samples we'll run some of the smaller stuff and then i think our customer is going to bring some
bigger sink cutouts and remnants so we'll we'll see the smaller stuff go through crush down and
then we'll see the bigger stuff go through as well here's taking a quick look at the system
this is a vibrating hopper that we can dump the material in there it'll take about a yard
of slabs remnants and pieces it'll vibrate its way down through this six inch by 30 inch jaw
crusher here here's a quick shot looking down the jaws these drop plates are adjustable right
now they're set pretty open for faster throughput but coarser crushing once it gets crushed through
the jaw crusher falls down onto this conveyor belt stacking belt and goes out here into a bin
foreign
you
foreign
so
yes
okay
so here's some of the stuff that was crushed this is that uh quartz countertop stuff and
it's pretty coarse-grained and it crushed pretty quartz like i mentioned earlier the jaw crusher
is set with a pretty wide jaw gap so we're getting a little bit coarser material but you can increase
your throughput that way and this customer was interested in crushing a lot of tons really
quickly so they get rid of their rock they make a lot of waste every month so they wanted they were
interested in throughput through the machine here's a quick look at the jaw crusher itself
this unit is a diesel powered unit so it's run with a perkins uh diesel motor there's a little
clutch here with the clutch arm to engage the belts to the jaw crusher flywheels so that runs
the jaw crusher part of it the hopper and the motor here on the conveyor are both three-phase
but we have a phase converter so that single phase power can be run into the phase converter
and provide three-phase power uh to the electrical motor so this whole unit can be run uh in a remote
area or doesn't need electricity about a 5000 watt generator is all you need to run this thing
and uh you can be crushing your granite out in the back 40. all right guys well thanks for watching
our video hope you guys enjoyed it if you have any questions or comments you can find our contact
