FINLAY has expanded its horizontal impact crusher range with the launch of the I‑130 and I‑130RS.
At the core of the new models is a 1,065mm x 1,245mm four‑bar rotor with twin hydraulic aprons, said to deliver ‘aggressive’ reduction and consistent shaping across a range of materials. A direct‑drive system with soft‑start aims to provide smooth engagement, fuel efficiency and reduced wear on drivetrain components.
Material is delivered to the chamber via a heavy‑duty vibrating grizzly feeder, with the option of an independent pre‑screen to remove fines ahead of the chamber. Beneath the chamber, an optional under‑pan feeder provides additional belt protection, managing rebar and directing material onto the main product conveyor when used in conjunction with the optional overband magnet.
Designed for operators who do not require onboard screening and recirculation, Finlay said the I‑130 offers ‘straightforward operation, strong service access and durable components’, making it suited to high‑output crushing across multiple applications.
For operations requiring closed‑loop crushing and on‑board screening, the I‑130RS integrates a two‑deck afterscreen and recirculation system within the same mid-range platform. The two‑deck afterscreen is described as the biggest in its class. Both decks can be recirculated for closed‑loop applications, or operators can divert bottom‑deck oversized material to produce a mid‑grade product.
The 500mm recirculation conveyor slews up to 90 degrees, allowing material to be stockpiled when required. For recycling and C&D applications, an optional windsifter can be fitted to the afterscreen to remove light contaminants such as wood, paper and plastic.
A feature of the I‑130RS is its modular design. The entire RS section can be quickly detached to reduce transport weight when screening is not required. Alternatively, the RS conveyor can remain in place while only the afterscreen is removed.
“Building on the market success of the I‑120 and I‑120RS, the I‑130 and I‑130RS were developed to meet demand for a more transport‑friendly impact crusher with increased configuration flexibility,” said Matt Dickson, business line director for Finlay. “The result is a machine that can be tailored to suit a range of recycling and quarrying applications, with options including use of a pre-screen, under-pan feeder, windsifter, and onboard recirculation, while remaining easy to operate and maintain for efficient, low‑complexity production on site.”
