With a solid reputation of providing the mining industry with manufactured and re-built rugged, dependable jaw crushers for almost 50 years, PR Engineering says it has taken its proven design technology to a new level, but this time by downsizing. Co-conceived between PR Engineering and Heath & Sherwood, a “mini” version of their industry-leading Birdsboro Buchanan crushers is being unveiled at MINExpo 2012 in Las Vegas that provides the performance of a production crusher in a lab package.

The unit is the only crusher in its class that features double-toggle action. This means better crushing performance which results in a more consistent final product, less effort to crush the same amount of rock and reduced wear on moving parts. Weighing just 2,300 lb, it’s a portable, robust, 6 x 10 crusher that is ideal for sampling stations, pilot plants, prospecting, exploration, labs and quarries, and for use in adverse conditions where smaller lab crushers would be ineffective.
