Auger Torque Cone Crusher Bucket

Auger Torque is launching two new products at bauma 2022 next week – the Cone Crusher Bucket and In-Site Range. At this year’s exhibition, Auger Torque is sharing a stand with the Kinshofer Group, which is debuting the Kinshofer Drum Cutter range that is set to be offered by Auger Torque.

The Cone Crusher Bucket is suitable for use on machines in the 3- to 10-tonne bracket, and is capable of quickly repurposing rubble into usable hardcore of approximately 40 to 70mm. Tried and tested on excavators, telehandlers, skid-steers and mini loaders, Auger Torque is already reporting considerable success in the UK market with this product.

One customer states that the cone crusher bucket has saved him nearly £1,000 per day when it comes to repurposing on-site aggregate to use as hardcore across his farm. Demo days are being run across the UK for this product and Auger Torque is inviting prospective users to get in touch for more information.

In-Site range
Meanwhile, In-Site is Auger Torque’s new range of data driven tools to give operators knowledge and insight whilst out in the field. A plug and play tool, with one power cable, sensor plugs and a handled touchscreen device, the In-Site range of products provide accuracy, precision and efficiency.

There are three products in the In-Site range. In-Site Align which ensures accurate alignment when drilling holes, preventing the need for an additional person to help align drilling. In-Site Data which along with the alignment functionality has the addition of pressure sensors so the operator can be sure the correct torque parameters are being met. Finally, In-Site Data Plus (suitable for 13-tonne machines and above) has all the functionality of the first two models with the addition of temperature and speed sensors assisting in the long term maintenance of the drive, as well as ensuring all the correct operating parameters are met.

All products come boxed with the sensors and a wireless touch screen handheld tablet, with all data recorded easily viewed for that further level of analysis back at base.

Drum cutter range
Auger Torque is also keen to promote the Kinshofer Drum Cutter range. Originally a Kinshofer product, Auger Torque has took over the manufacturing, development, sales and support for this attachment range globally. High quality design, manufacturing and parts are said to guarantee high performance levels in the toughest of environments, as well as submerged operation in water of up to 25m depth.

Kelvin Hamilton, Product Manager for the KDC range stated, “The KDC drum cutters are the ideal attachment to scale rock or concrete walls, tunnel excavation, trenching in extreme grounds or loosen any hard rocky ground in the most efficient way.”

At the bauma show, Auger Torque will be joined by some of their global distributors, so the experts are on hand to give advice and insight into these new products. This in addition to having the 150,000K Max Earth Drill, mulcher, trencher, hedge trimmer, cement mixer bowl, stump planer and log splitter and various earth drills. With food and drink on the stand (FM.711/4), Auger Torque will be well worth a visit at bauma.
