Demolition specialist Brown and Mason is using three Sandvik mobile jaw crushers to clear the site of the recently demolished Rugeley B power station in the UK.

The family-run company, which has carried out the decommissioning and site clearance of around 55 power stations to date, is currently using the Sandvik QJ341 machines to process the site’s demolition debris into smaller reusable materials. The Sandvik QJ341 crusher weighs 48.9 t and can process up to 400 t of material an hour.

It features a C12 jaw crusher with adjustable jaw settings and a hydraulic drive that allows users to start the machine while under load.

According to Sweden-based Sandvik, the reverse crushing action of the QJ341 machines allowed Brown and Mason to relieve blockages caused by the high level of steel content in the power plant’s rubble.

While Brown and Mason already owned two QJ341 crushers, it added a third to its equipment fleet due to the size of the project.
