Alligator crushers

BAV Crushers

BAV Alligator Crushers give compact excavators, from 1.5 to 10 tonnes, and full sized excavators up to 28 tonnes, the power to process materials on sites that larger excavators or static crushing plants cannot reach, either due to environmental, weight or space restrictions. Transport off-site, for waste and to site, for aggregates, can be minimised by crushing concrete with your excavator. Reinforcing wire is cleaned of concrete for best scrap value. An entirely new BAV Crushers website showcasing our concrete crushers is now online and can be launched in a new window by clicking here.

SAVE With costs soaring - transport. raw materials. landfill tax and labour - contractors increasingly look to excavator attachments to provide on-site savings.

Where there is already and excavator on site, digging and loading, any other task which can be mechanised using the same machine, and carried out on-site will bring further benefits.

As well as saving on bought-in materials and waste disposal costs, you can cut down the amount of time lost waiting for skips to arrive (or be collected) and hardcore deliveries.

CUT AND BREAK Any piece of stone or concrete which will fit in the jaws can be broken into manageable chuncks. Reinforcing wires are cut using the integral cutter blades (standar on all models) and then crushed clean of concrete for maximum scrap value. You can dismantle and crush concrete structures in one. A BAV is ideal for use on materials which, due to their size or reinforcing, are suitable for static crushing plants. By avoiding the use of static crushers, you can save on transport, and reduce the work space required on site, as well as the environmental nuisance to neighbouring properties.

CRUSH AND REDUCE You may want to re-use your material on site to save delays and costs of bought-in hardcore delivered to site. You might also need to breal-up and reduce waste concrete, in order to get the maximum tonnage into tippers or skips leaving the job site. Either waythe BAV is ideal.

On certain jobs you might also want to remove concrete from the site, and take it back to base, where you can use the BAV to crush at a later date.

RE-PROCESS AND REFINE Although owing to its open jaw configuration, the BAV does not crush to a precise grade, you can re-process stock piles of crushed material quickly and easily. Repeated crushing can reduce material down to a very fine grade.

This can be done with your own yard stockpile, or even in situ, on site as required.
