Powering the shift to electric in mobile crushing and screening
Sandvik Mobile Crushing and Screening is accelerating the shift toward more sustainable quarrying and mining with its fully electrified “electric train” solution. The integrated system—comprising the UJ443E jaw crusher, QH443E cone crusher and QA452e Doublescreen—delivers high performance with significantly reduced emissions, fuel consumption and operating costs...
The electric train sets new benchmarks for productivity and efficiency and has been recognised with the Sandvik Sigrid Göransson sustainability award * at the recent AGM meeting in April.
UJ443E – Fully electric jaw crusher
At the heart of the train’s primary crushing stage, the UJ443E is built on a fully electric tracked platform and features the latest generation Sandvik CJ412 jaw crusher. Designed to maximise efficiency, it delivers up to 25% reduction in fuel consumption and up to 30% increase in throughput compared to previous models, while reducing hydraulic oil usage by up to 91%. Its flexible design allows operation via an external grid connection or onboard genset, enabling customers to optimise performance while minimising environmental impact and operating costs.
The machine is engineered for flexibility, with the ability to operate via an external grid connection or onboard genset using HVO or diesel, supporting reduced emissions, lower noise levels and extended service intervals when connected to mains power. In addition, the platform enables integration with downstream units, allowing efficient power sharing across the train to further optimise fuel consumption and simplify servicing.
QH443E – Electric-driven cone crusher
The QH443E features an updated tracked platform with a diesel/electric generator-based drivetrain, Optik™ automation system, My Fleet remote monitoring, and the renowned Sandvik CH440 Hydrocone crusher.
This advanced cone crusher is known for its versatility and ease of setting adjustment through the Hydroset CSS regulation and protection system, which optimizes production and keeps track of liner wear through the CLP, Constant Liner Performance technology. With a choice of several chambers, throws and settings for a wide range of applications, this enables you to fine tune your specification and improve capacity.
- Sustainability at its core
The QH443E features a new and improved heavy duty feeder design and is equipped with electrically driven components. Its advanced design allows for operation through a connection to an external electrical grid supply or on-board generator, providing flexibility and reducing operational costs.
The integration of the latest generation of fuel-efficient engines further enhances flexibility, allowing the unit to be operated via HVO (Hydrotreated Vegetable Oil) or diesel when required, maximizing uptime whilst lowering emissions and operating noise.
Due to the electrification of the onboard components, running the QH443E via the genset can result in up to 25%* fuel savings and a 78%* reduction in hydraulic oil usage compared to previous generations.
Combining electric drive technology with tracked mobility, the QH443E is designed with safety, sustainability, and total cost of ownership in mind. Making it ideal for secondary or tertiary crushing in aggregate production, quarries, and mines.
- One platform, endless possibilities
Engineered to operate in the most hostile environments, the QH443E is ideal for large quarries and mines. Its robust design, featuring a unibody mainframe and premium components, ensures durability and strength. The load-sensing system for the feeder drive, camera, and level sensor guarantees continuous crushing, while the choice of chambers, throws, and settings allows for customization to suit a wide range of applications.
QA452e hybrid Doublescreen
The QA452e Doublescreen completes the train with advanced hybrid screening technology, typically outperforming traditional screens by up to 30%. Its “e” drive allows operators to select the most efficient and cost-effective power source, supporting both electric and diesel operation. Designed for high-capacity screening in demanding applications, the QA452e enhances overall system productivity while contributing to reduced fuel consumption and lower emissions
Engineered for today, powered for tomorrow
Together, the electric train offers a fully integrated, low-emission solution that reduces fuel dependency, minimises environmental impact and supports the transition to electrified operations. By combining electric drive technology with tracked mobility and flexible power options, Sandvik is helping customers move towards more sustainable, future-ready crushing and screening operations.
All models in the electric train are available to order through Sandvik Mobile Crushing and Screening’s global network of sales areas and distributors.
