Industry Leading Concrete Crushers
Benefits of Concrete Crushers
Eagle Crusher’s concrete crushers offer several key benefits:
- Portability: Our crushers are designed for easy transport between job sites, with rapid setup times under 30 minutes on our RapiDeploy line. This allows you to quickly move and begin crushing at new locations.
- Rebar Handling: The solid-steel rotors in our impactors are built specifically for concrete crushing and preventing rebar tangles. This enables the rebar to be easily separated for recycling after crushing.
- Versatility: While optimized for concrete, our impactors can also handle asphalt, aggregate, and other materials with simple blow bar changes and screen adjustments. This allows you to process multiple material types with a single machine.
Applications
Concrete crushers are used across industries for:
- Demolition and construction debris recycling
- Crushing concrete washout and slurry waste
- Onsite material reduction and reuse
- Producing recycled aggregate products
How It Works
- Material is dumped into the crusher’s hopper feeder
- A grizzly deck removes dirt and fines
- Material is fed into the impactor and crushed
- Rebar and metal are removed with a magnet
- Crushed concrete is sized with a screen or stockpiled
Cost-Saving Benefits
Recycling concrete onsite with a crusher provides significant cost savings compared to hauling and disposing of the waste material. The crushed concrete can be reused as base fill or sold as recycled aggregate.
In 1984, one of Eagle Crusher’s customers used recycled concrete for a runway project at Wright Patterson Air Force Base, winning the contract by pricing with recycled material compared to virgin aggregate. With this single job, they earned $1 million more than their competitors.
