A correctly sized hydraulic rockbreaker and suitably positioned boom system is a are well-recognised, safe and reliable solution that can maximise the productivity of any crushing circuit.

However, before purchasing a new rock breaker boom system, it is important to consider four critical factors to maximise the return on investment and ensure optimum performance of the new boom system.

Firstly, a hydraulic rockbreaker must be correctly sized by considering all aspects of the application, including rock hardness, rock size, expected duty and the space available.

The boom size and reach must be correct to carry the weight of the chosen rockbreaker and meet the reach requirements for the application.

Correct position, elevation and working slew angle of the boom system can make a big difference to the useability and maintainability of the system.

The boom system has advanced safety systems, automation and remote operation options available to increase safety and efficiency.
