Meet A Recycling Powerhouse: The Lippmann 3062 Jaw Crusher

Dec 29, 2025 - 6 months ago

When only the alpha rock crusher will do, the Lippmann 3062 jaw crusher is your spot-on selection.

This king of crushers is all about breaking down large, heavy material on the front line of a project. Its 30” by 62” feed opening chews through boulders and spits out manageable-sized rocks. And with its workhorse configuration, it crushes hundreds of tons per hour, making it the hands-down hero for large-scale recycling operations.

Even the toughest, abrasive materials, like granite and ore, can’t compete with the crusher’s heavy-duty frames and bearings. Its simple operations, including little downtime, easy maintenance, and commendable output, make it reliable and straightforward. The 3062 excels at prepping material for next-stage crushers, delivering a steady stream of properly sized rock.

Designed with Success in Mind
The Lippmann 3062 jaw crusher is uniquely engineered to be incredibly durable and extra-wide. It’s ideal for processing slabby concrete, which can reduce productivity by being difficult to handle, and it can also clog crushers (especially jaw crushers). But the low-profile build on the 3062 jaw handles them like a champ, often eliminating the need for material preparation beforehand.

One of its core strengths is the hefty 62-inch feeder, which does not narrow or taper, allowing the material to glide into the jaw for maximum crushing.

Why It Rocks in Recycling
The 3062 jaw crusher is a beast in the recycling world, especially when handling concrete, asphalt, and construction and demolition waste. It is commonly used in mobile crushing units for recycled concrete and demolition debris. It is especially beneficial in urban projects where large materials need to be scaled down quickly.

Essential Elements of the Top-Performing 3062 Jaw Crusher Include:

A heavy-duty, ribbed steel frame that’s stress-relieved after welding and before machining for added durability.
A one-piece steel pitman.
A heat-treated, forged alloy steel eccentric shaft.
Steel cheek plates for additional wear resistance.
Oversized tapered roller bearings in both the pitman and the frame provide higher load capacity than the round roller bearings used in many competitor machines.
Reversible manganese steel jaw dies and extensions for extended wear life.
Two heavy-duty flywheels, with one grooved for V-belts.
An automatic oil lubrication system that delivers a metered flow of filtered oil to each bearing for optimal performance and longevity.
