Texan mix
MMD has won its first Texan order for an all-electric powered 2,500tph semi-mobile limestone crushing plant, due to be up and running by the middle of 2015. It consists of a 1000 Series Sizer and D7 Plate Feeder, and is due to replace an old static crusher. Nominal product size is set to be 10in. It is destined to be filled with run of mine limestone either by trucks or front- end loaders. Te sizer/discharge and feeder/ hopper units are skid mounted so they can be moved more easily. Te company is expecting them to be shifted around every two months, depending on the quarry’s schedule. l
