The Importance of Choosing a Rock Crusher
Before we get too far into the details, consider what you’ll get out of your rock crusher. These machines are excellent additions to many job sites, as they can help mitigate the skyrocketing costs of raw materials and support more eco-friendly construction practices — a win-win in the bid process and addition to your bottom-line profitability.
View Details
Rock crushers can convert old, unwanted materials, such as concrete, granite, asphalt, limestone and basalt, even glass into new base materials for further building. They often reduce or eliminate the need for raw materials. When you reuse old concrete or process stone, you save on costs through:
- Raw material requirements: Concrete and masonry materials have jumped 15% in price in 2024 alone. A rock crusher allows you to save on the costs of new materials by replacing them with recycled ones, giving you more control over project costs.
- Delivery costs: Getting material on-site can be expensive, particularly in rural locations. You can reduce or eliminate this cost by producing the material on the job site.
- Disposal costs: Getting rid of old materials often requires costs such as landfill tipping fees and hauling fees. You don’t need to dispose of reused materials, so you can say goodbye to those exploding costs. If you pay a lot of disposal or tipping fees, a rock crusher could pay for itself very quickly!
- More competitive bidding: Using recycled materials can make your bids more competitive through reduced costs and eco-friendly building practices, helping you earn more profitable jobs.
- Sold materials: Even if you can’t use your recycled materials in a certain job, you can always resell them to make additional profit.
Aside from costs, rock crushers also help the planet by keeping recycled materials out of landfills and contributing to Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) certification. Concrete is the most recycled material on earth! Understanding the advantages of rock crushers can help you better align your purchase with your goals. Whether you’re after a cost-saving measure, an eco-friendly tool or a mix of both, a rock crusher is a great pick.

We've ground earcorn with a hammermill for years but I would like to see less fines and more cracked . Tried a burr mill great feed but too slow . Used my recutter lately and man is that dusty . I'm just looking for the best method without breaking the bank of a sto. ... and what would should ground earcorn be worth if someone asked to buy some ? Just wondering what u could charge for the extra work if your not just doing it for your self ?

No screen and you get whole cobs and if it isn't full all the time the corn spits back up in the air about 40'.... what a mess . Tried a haybuster with a 2" screen and had the same problem corn everywhere and whole cobs

or didn't you have time to spend a "few" hours of repair time that I didn't have. It should do a fine job with the right screen Texas Papaw

Tub grinder with 5/8" screen and ear corn kit, which includes a hood that covers 1/2 of the hammermill does are good job. Hood goes on the side where the hammers are going upward when running. Stops it from throwing ears out. Downside of mill is uncovered for ears to come in. Years ago had both a Farmhand and Haybuster and they had ear corn kits that included the hood and also a pipe that fan across the tub from 1 side to the other to stir and move the ears into the mill. garvo

have earcorn screen for haybuster-they make a factoy one that works perfect-best mill is a earcorn crusher with roller mill underneath-henke 36 inch or peerless-Adam could build you one out of two 36inch henke rollermills with crusher's -but your probably not serious-so you will continue to fight your problem that could easily be solved with a little investment,you can see my 2 henke's below-would be no problem to do a earcorn mill the same way garvo

if you want to save some money go buy a henke earcorn mill-a 36 inch should work-we did 50,000 bushel with one yearly -before that used a 36inch peerless mill-lots of them in Wisconsin -look on tractorhouse SOILcattleman

You wouldn't happen to have a lead on a smaller roller mill? Definetly wouldn't need a 36" mill, would actually like to find one like they use to run on Harvestore silos. IL cow man

If you can find one New Idea used to make a roller mill to replace the husking bed on a picker. They took the grain off with an auger, so not so much dust as a blower. They did a great job of processing the corn, but were prone to plug up between the mill and the wagon. If you want to go to the trouble, the mill is a good unit to make a stationary processor out of, but it will take some work to make a frame and power supply for it. turbo1
