OverviewThe Finlay C-1550P is a self-propelled mobile cone crushing plant built around the proven Finlay 1300 cone crusher with direct drive. The machine offers an optional patent-pending single-deck pre-screen (2.45 x 1.52 m) to remove or bypass fines, an integrated chute system to divert or reintroduce fines, and telematics (T-Link) as standard on applicable units.
Design & Operation- Tracked, self-propelled cone plant with large hopper/feeder and automated metal detection plus purge chute to protect the cone and reduce downtime.
- Optional pre-screen module (single deck 2.45 m x 1.52 m) to remove fines before the cone chamber.
- Hydraulically adjustable feed conveyor for operation with pre-screen or direct feed to the cone.
- Fuel-efficient direct drive transmission via wet clutch with variable speed cone drive and electronic monitoring.
- Hydraulic tramp relief system with automatic reset for chamber protection.
- Integrated chute system enabling bypass or reintroduction of fines to optimise throughput and reduce liner wear.
- Dust suppression provision fitted as standard (hose and spraybars; pump not supplied).
Key Features- Fully hydraulic Closed Side Setting (CSS) adjustment with electronic monitoring for on-the-fly change.
- Fuel-efficient direct drive through wet clutch.
- Hydraulic tramp relief with automatic reset to minimise downtime and protect the chamber.
- Metal detection on feed belt with auto-stop and controllable purge system for removal of metal contaminants.
- Pre-screen bypass or reintroduction options to improve product control, plant throughput and liner life.
