Epiroc unveil performance booster for DP 1820
Demolition pulverizer with performance booster redefines efficiency in demolition tasks
EPIROC have announced the latest enhancement to their versatile and efficient demolition pulverizer range – the new performance booster for their DP 1820 demolition pulverizer.
Initially launched at Bauma 2022, the DP 1820 boasts a slim, modular design to withstand the additional power of a performance booster and is specifically tailored for carriers in the 15–22-tonne weight class. Now, with the introduction of the performance booster, Epiroc say they have taken the DP 1820 to new heights by offering substantially higher performance compared with standard versions.
The Epiroc performance booster elevates the DP 1820’s performance by up to 20%, ensuring jobs are completed faster and more efficiently. However, it not only boosts power, but also minimizes jaw cycle time by up to 25%, contributing to increased productivity on the job site. Moreover, Epiroc say users can expect a significant reduction in carrier fuel consumption of up to 35%, making the DP 1820 with performance booster a sustainable and cost-effective solution.
According to Epiroc, the DP range stands out as the performance booster can be retrofitted to existing attachments – a distinctive feature made possible by the robustness of the standard Epiroc pulverizer body. Unlike other pulverizers on the market that require different bodies to withstand the load of a performance booster, the Epiroc DP 1820 is said to offer a cost-effective and convenient solution.
With a service weight of 1,820kg and a jaw opening of 746mm, The DP 1820 delivers precise handling and superior crushing force. Its slim, modular design eliminates the need for cylinder rod protection, and the 360° endless hydraulic rotation ensures optimal positioning and precise handling on the job site.
The Epiroc DP 1820 with performance booster is capable of handling both demolition tasks and secondary breaking of debris, making it an all-in-one solution for a range of applications in material recycling and re-use.
