The majority of rock and stone crushing occurs in the quarry industry with a sizable percentage in the sand and gravel and recycling industries.  The reduction of blasted rock is normally done by using jaw crushers with cone crushers and impactors typically being used to reduce the aggregate sizes further where necessary.  In applications where there is a clay sizeable content it is normal to remove this prior to crushing via a vibrating grizzly.  The advent of trailer and crawler mounted crushers has enabled the crushing equipment to be taken to the face rather than drawing the material to the more traditional static crushing plant.
 
MH Screening Services offer the BL Pegson jaw and cone crushers for both static and mobile applications.
 
Where crushed aggregates required to be have their shape improved the Pilot Twister VSI range of crushers are ideal.  These work on the principle of a stone on stone impact thus reduction and shaping can be achieved with relatively low wear costs.  The Twister has also been readily used to produce sand from excess stone products on site.
  
The crushing of demolition material is also within the remit of the BL Pegson jaw crushers.  In smaller projects the Rubblebuster SL2.  Horizontal shaft impactor can be used.  Both BL Pegson and the Rubblebuster products come in hook lift, wheeled trailer and tracked chassis versions.
Where relatively soft concrete, bricks and clays are to be crushed the ALLU Processing Bucket can be used in conjunction with an excavator or wheel loader.
