Everything You Need to Know About the RipRap Portable Scalping Plant

In an industry like aggregate production, it’s critical that rocks and other material are screened and conveyed as efficiently as possible in order to maximize profits. After all, any additional time spent processing aggregate more than what is needed can lead to consequences like a decrease in tonnage per hour or even an increase in preventable costs like equipment wear.

Enter the RipRap®, a portable scalping plant designed to combat inefficiency for aggregate producers by providing a machine that generates higher production results through its optimal scalping system. The RipRap® plant enables aggregate producers to save time and money all the while generating high quality products.

How the RipRap Scalping Plant Works

As aggregate is loaded into the RipRap® scalper, it’s processed by the plant’s two-step, heavy-duty grizzly decks. The scalping power provided by this double set of adjustable 5-foot grizzlies reduces the amount of time spent sorting and conveying by screening out fines and smaller aggregate to separate conveyors before releasing larger material from its front chute.

Not only does the RipRap® allow for maximized aggregate scalping capabilities, but it provides aggregate producers with the widest heavy-duty feeder in the industry. Measuring in at 67 inches by 24 feet, the RipRap®’s feeder accepts maximum loads of aggregate thereby reducing the overall amount of time spent collecting material and feeding it into the plant.

Flexible Configuration and Performance Features for Your Scalping Equipment

Beyond loading and screening, the RipRap® portable scalping plant also shows its flexibility in a 42-inch cross conveyor with a 5-foot impact bed and reversible functionality, allowing stacking conveyors to be arranged on either side of the plant and enabling aggregate producers to configure their crushing site exactly as needed to ensure efficiency.

Additionally, the RipRap® can be manufactured to accommodate multiple power options, including a Tier 4 diesel genset, or direct connection to line power. The scalping equipment is fully equipped with a main control panel to distribute power to its motors as well as controls and plugs for two stacking conveyors.

Equipped with its two-step, adjustable grizzly decks, the widest, heavy-duty feeder in the industry, and a reversible cross conveyor, the RipRap® portable scalping plant makes a massive impact on the job site and on your business, making this machine a valuable addition to any aggregate production operation.
