With a network of qualified inspectors in Europe, USA and the U.A.E. we inspect used recycling and quarry equipment such as impact crushers, jaw crushers or cone crushers. We have experience with recycling machinery of different brands such as Kleemann, Brown Lenox, Finlay, OM, Terex, Pegson, Thesab, Hartl, Gipo and other brands.
Used quarry and mining plant is often in a rough condition. The work in rock is a tough job and causing vibrations and machine are shaken like hell. Most screens or crushers are very versatile but of course the life in a quarry or on demolition jobs is causing extended wear. A third party inspection by specialized engineers can help you selecting good equipment.
Purchasing a processing machine such as a rock crusher or a screening machine is very risky - even if you send your own technician. Crushers and screens can have many hidden problems. We are looking back to at least 60 inspected crushers of many brands such as Pegson, Terex, Gipo, Finlay, Fintec, Sandvik and some other brands. Beside the inspection of rock-crushers and screening plant we perform also used machine inspections for quarry trucks, rock drills, compressors and excavators.
For a well-founded analysis of the condition it is necessary having the crusher or screen in work mode position. An operator is required to run the machine. Good to have a possibility to process some material. This way it is possible to check for vibrations, abnomal noises and performance.

MEVAS has a network of engineers available for inspection and appraisal of heavy machinery in most European countries. We can inspect used equipment in Belgium, the Netherlands, France, Spain, Portugal, Italy, Germany, Poland, Turkey, Russia, Sweden, Norway. A map with more info you can find on our network page.
MEVAS is not buying or selling any equipment. We do inspections, nothing else.
A stone crusher is a machine designed to reduce large rocks into
smaller rocks, gravel, sand, or dust. It is used for various purposes in
the mining, construction, and recycling industries. Stone crushers
operate by applying compressive force to break down the stone into
smaller pieces. Here's an overview of what a stone crusher is and what
it is used for:
•Components of a Stone Crusher:•
- •Feed Hopper• Stone is fed into the crusher through a feed hopper. The
size and capacity of the hopper can vary depending on the machine's
design and the size of the stones it's intended to crush.
- •Jaws or Plates• In most stone crushers, there are two jaws or plates,
one fixed and the other movable. The movable jaw is driven by an
eccentric shaft, allowing it to move back and forth. These jaws or
plates apply pressure to the stone, breaking it down.
- •Crushing Chamber• The space between the two jaws is known as the
crushing chamber. This is where the actual crushing of the stone occurs.
- •Drive Mechanism• The machine is powered by a motor, which drives the
eccentric shaft. This creates the movement of the movable jaw, allowing
it to crush the stone.
•Uses of Stone Crushers:•
1. •Aggregate Production• Stone crushers are commonly used in the mining
and construction industries to produce aggregates. These aggregates are
the essential materials for making concrete, asphalt, and road base.
Stone crushers break down larger rocks into smaller sizes suitable for
construction.
2. •Ore Processing• Stone crushers are used in the mining industry to
crush and process various ores, such as gold, copper, iron, and other
minerals. Crushing the ore is a critical step in the extraction and
processing of valuable minerals.
3. •Rock Crushing• Stone crushers are employed in quarrying and rock
mining operations to break down large pieces of rock into smaller, more
manageable sizes. This is often necessary to extract valuable stones or
minerals from the earth.
4. •Recycling• Stone crushers can also be used in recycling operations
to crush concrete, asphalt, and other construction materials for reuse.
Recycled aggregates are environmentally friendly and reduce the need for
new resources.
5. •Land Improvement• Stone crushers are used for land improvement and
reclamation projects, such as clearing land for agricultural use or
managing land in construction sites.
6. •Forestry• Stone crushers are used to crush and mulch stumps, trees,
and underbrush in forestry and land clearing applications.
7. •Industrial Applications• Stone crushers can also be used in various
industrial processes, such as cement production, where raw materials
need to be crushed before further processing.
Stone crushers come in various types, including jaw crushers, cone
crushers, impact crushers, and gyratory crushers. The choice of crusher
depends on the type of material being crushed and the desired end
product. Stone crushers are essential equipment in many industries,
contributing to the production of materials needed for infrastructure,
construction, and manufacturing.
