Among the many services offered by REMco is its in-house test crushing lab that offers existing and prospective customers an opportunity to see how a given configuration of REMco VSI will perform with their stone. Once the test crushing is complete, REMco will custom configure a crusher to suit the specific needs of the material and provide its owner with the best all- around crushing performance for finished product tonnage, power usage and wear parts cost.
REMco backs its products and will provide a written guarantee for wear cost and performance when the material has been tested at REMco … a unique feature in the world of crushers.
REMco provides crushing tests to prospective buyers of REMco crushers. The basic tests are provided on a no charge basis subject to the terms of the testing contract. Each test requires a completed testing contract. REMco uses a Model 100 VSI/VSG with a 75 hp motor and variable frequency drive. This unit can be arranged in three basic crushing configurations: Autogenous (rock-on-rock), Semi-Autogenous (rotor-anvil) or Full Hard Parts (shoe table/anvils) or special chambers as may be necessary. In order to have the test is completed promptly and accurately, please adhere to the following requirements:
1.
For an accurate test, it is essential that the minimum quantity of material is provided. that is, two (2) 55-gallon drums of material, approximately 1,500 lbs. (680 kgs) per test. If both autogenous and semi-autogenous tests are required, twice the minimum is needed, 3,000 lbs (1,361 kgs). Multiple speed tests may require greater quantities of material. Super sack shipments are OK, palletized 5-gallon pails are OK. Paper and plastic drums are NOT acceptable. If in doubt about the containers or the quantity of material required, please contact REMco.
