Herbst concrete crusher

[tm140]

Anyone running one, If so how well do they work. Been asked again today about contract crushing and they seem the best suited machine but very expensive for what it is.

Neighbor has one, think it’s been ok since fitting a new flywheel, bought new but didn’t seem to do a lot before it started wobbling, don’t think it had been tightened up properly at the factory!
Since then it will have done a fair amount of work contracting.
Oh and it doesn’t like blue cobbles, fires them back up in the air apparently.

Arden precision engineering in Tullamore make a tractor driven one which is a lot stronger . Works very well.

They may be a lot of money but there should be a lot of metal in them. Choose carefully as there are other machines around. Having been involved in crushers for several years price is the last think to think of. If you can have a look on facebook there is a crusher which had a WW2 bomb put in it!!! Not much left!
