Apr 21, 2022 - 3 years ago

On March 30th, 2022 McCloskey International unveiled the J6 Jaw Crusher for the North American market and formally introduced it at World of Asphalt/AGG1 March 29-31, 2022 in Nashville, TN, USA.

The J6 builds on the robust features of the existing design, while adding new productivity with an exciting line-up of features aimed at boosting productivity and offering enhanced durability across applications.

Designed to withstand the toughest conditions worldwide, the J6 delivers high TPH due to its innovative jaw chamber design and enhanced material flow. The large, deep chamber has proven to be particularly effective in hard rock applications, with an optional factory-fit rock hammer available to maximize resources on site. The large 48” x 34” (1200mm x 864mm) jaw opening accommodates large feed sizes, also contributing to higher production in material processing.

McCloskey engineers have designed the J6 to meet the evolving requirements of today’s projects and operations. Despite the position of the J6 as a powerhouse, portability has not been compromised. Mobility on-site and between sites continues to be a feature with remote control tracks to easily move and position the crusher and maximize the efficiency of any project site. Also contributing to efficiency, particularly in remote locations, is the high volume fuel tank, sufficient to run the J6 for approximately 20 hours.

Technology has been a key factor in the development of the J6, with a 12” DSE control panel for the highest operational performance and reliability providing push button control of the jaw, track and feeder functions. The crusher is fitted with the a telematics modem for the new 365SiteConnex program, a complete connectivity solution for highly accurate monitoring of McCloskey products.

365SiteConnex is based on the latest leading-edge communication technologies to collect, analyze and deliver information on the crushers, screeners and stackers customers rely on to produce the highest quality products with the least amount of downtime.

As with all McCloskey equipment, safety is paramount, and the J6 is equipped with a number of features to ensure the workplace and the operator are secure. Engine safety shutdown systems, start-up alarms, full safety guarding, external maintenance access and a tagout capability on the isolator all contribute to the safe operation and maintenance of the equipment. Ground level access also promotes safety, and allows for quick service and maintenance, reducing the downtime for the operation.

“The J6 is an exciting addition to our jaw crushing product range, as we continue to develop products that meet the unique requirements of fleets in diverse conditions around the world,” said Toni Laaksonen, Senior Vice-President. “We design and evolve our equipment to enhance the operations, efficiency and productivity of our customers, ensuring success in the field and in their results. The J6 is a perfect example of leveraging the best features from our existing jaw crushers, and adding functions and features based on how our customers use the equipment every day.”
