FINLAY C-1550+

Finlay®, a leading global manufacturer of mobile crushing, screening, and conveying equipment, are setting a new standard for high-capacity production in the surface ore mining and aggregate industries, with their C-1550+ Tracked Cone Crusher. This powerful machine represents a significant advancement over its predecessor, delivering increased performance, enhanced efficiency, and improved serviceability.

Increased performance and productivity

At the heart of the C-1550+ is an upgraded Terex® 1300X cone crusher with a 1300mm (52”) head diameter. Engineered with robust construction and intelligent design, this crusher offers a 15% increase in tonnage/production compared to the previous model, thanks to higher clamp forces and a longer throw. This translates directly to increased profitability for owners, operators, and contractors. The lighter machine weight also enhances transportability.

Engineered for uptime and ease of maintenance

Finlay understands that uptime is critical. That's why the C-1550+ features a mechanically designed liner retention and a common upper frame compatible with all liner configurations (coarse, medium, or fine). This simplifies liner changes and maintenance, maximising operating time. Generous sized catwalks provide easy access to the power pack from both sides, and a tag-out engine isolator enhances safe maintenance procedures. The hydraulically folding hopper, lockable from ground level, offers efficient setup and teardown.

Advanced technology for optimised crushing

The C-1550+ incorporates advanced technology to optimise performance. Ultrasonic level sensors regulate material flow from the hopper to the crushing chamber, ensuring consistent and efficient crushing. The machine’s ability to accept an all-in feed eliminates the need for additional screening equipment, further streamlining operations.

Uncompromising safety and innovation

Safety is paramount in the design of the C-1550+. The large hopper/feeder is equipped with an automated metal detection and purge system – a unique feature compared to other OEM manufacturers. This system protects the cone from tramp metal, minimising downtime by automatically removing contaminants via the purge chute.

Key features and benefits:

■ ‘On the fly’ hydraulic CSS adjustment: Full hydraulic closed side setting adjustment with electronic monitoring ensures ease of operation and precise control.

■ Fuel-efficient direct drive: Direct drive transmission through a wet clutch maximises fuel efficiency and reduces operating costs.

■ Hydraulic Tramp Relief: An automatic reset hydraulic tramp relief system protects the chamber and minimises downtime in the event of uncrushable material entering the chamber.

■ Advanced Metal Detection: The metal detection system on the feed belt with ‘auto-stop’ and purge system protects the cone and removes contaminants.

■ Versatile Chamber Design: The common chamber upper frame is compatible with all liner configurations (coarse, medium, or fine), optimising machine uptime through efficient liner changes.

The Finlay C-1550+ Setting the standard for cone crushing

The C-1550+ delivers high-capacity production with exceptional application flexibility and portability. With its focus on safety, versatility, productivity and serviceability, the C-1550+ is the ideal solution for demanding crushing applications.
