Stress relief the Dragon way!

One of the common problems with crushers, we hear about over and over again, is how quick they are to jam, get blocked and then break. Here at Dragon Equipment we’re all about solutions, not problems, and our experienced design engineers make sure our machines address the common problems our customers are likely to face.

You can see this first hand in the innovative design of our CR300 Crusher. It may look sleek and simple – a conscious design decision to ensure it is easy to service and maintain – but behind the scenes some very clever programming eliminates the problems of jamming, blocking and breaking.

This ‘no stress’ and ‘anti-stall’ technology programmed into the machine’s electronic control unit (ECU) will detect when the load is too high and switch the jaw movement into reverse, reducing the load on the engine until the material is processed. If this is not enough to process the material, the ECU will switch off the feed completely to prevent the engine from stalling. With the engine still running, the operator can manually switch between forward and reverse to overcome the jam. 

The powerful jaws of the CR300 Crusher are in fact so robust that these features are rarely called upon, but ensuring the solutions to these problems are close at hand is key to product development at Dragon Equipment.
