McLanahan Corp.
Universal Engineering introduced the jaw crusher in 1906, and since then the technology has remained pretty much the same. When McLanahan Corp. purchased Universal in 2012, it began a total re-engineering to create a safer, simpler and smarter jaw crusher. Freedom Series Jaw Crushers have a re-engineered attack angle and crushing stroke pattern that increase capacity by 15 percent while minimizing wear on jaw dies. McLanahan has also calculated a new way to adjust the crusher’s close-side settings. The hydraulic rams are isolated from the crushing action, allowing full automation, finger-tip control and push-button adjustment—virtually eliminating toggle migration, reducing expensive problems.
