WCL operates three quarries around the West Midlands and reports rising demand for its aggregate waste and recycling services.
Director Mark Deadman said: “At WCL Quarries we are continuously upgrading and investing in new equipment in order to meet our customer’s demands for more quality aggregates at sensible costs. Our latest purchase is one of nine Terex Finlay machines we have bought to assist with faster processing, as part of our growing business.”
The J-1170 crusher feeds through a Terex Finlay 683 Supertrak, to split quarried material into three products for different applications. WCL specified additional guarding to help with safety on site, an extended telescopic side conveyor and radio remote control.
Although it is bigger than the previous machine on site, it uses less fuel, consuming 23 litres of diesel an hour compared to 28 litres an hour before.
