Each year the Institute of Quarrying NZ (IOQ), and the Aggregate and Quarry Association of NZ (AQA) hold an annual joint conference. This year the conference was held in New Plymouth between 13 and 15 July.

A once per year event where the AQA and the IOQ do a tremendous job in facilitating interaction, socialising and the sharing of experiences for all those involved in the quarrying industry. This year they exceeded expectations, bringing together a record number of industry professionals to raise standards and share knowledge which are the principles that guide the Institute of Quarrying today.

Inside your cone crusher

The basic principle is straightforward: the material to be crushed (the feed) drops into the crushing chamber. The mantle is a moving part that gyrates in an eccentric motion. That is, it doesn’t remain completely centred – it swings slightly as it rotates, continually altering the gap between the mantle and the concave (the ring outside the mantle that stays fixed in place.) As the mantle moves, it crushes the material against the concave at the points where the gap is smallest (the stones in the feed are also compressed against each other – that’s known as interparticle crushing).

The Moxy Articulated Dump Truck (ADT) offers a larger load capacity in all weight categories. Additional load capacity, combined with superior power and traction, improve productivity. The unique advantages of the Moxy ADT’s permanent 6-wheel drive, free-swinging rear tandem, front-mounted turning ring, independent front wheel suspension, and sloping rear frame provide excellent driving stability with equal weight distribution and superior traction.

Two Moxy models are available from MIMICO, the New Zealand distributor of Moxy ADTs.

Scalping Screens

The Sandvik Mobile Scalping Screen range comprises the QE141, QE241, QE342, and QE442 models. Scalping screens are predominantly used in the production of oversized product. By design, these models have a smaller hopper and are loaded directly via an excavator. The main wide conveyor carries the oversized product, with smaller auxiliary conveyors expelling fines and mid-sized product from the sides. Scalping screens tend to have a smaller footprint and are well suited to confined jobsites. Scalping screens are often used in recycling and organic material processing applications.
