Prime mover
"This new Broyt D600W faceshovel, supplied by sole UK importers Metso Minerals (UK) Ltd, is maintaining a long tradition of Broyt prime movers which stretches back more than 20 years at the Les Vardes granite quarry on the Channel Island of Guernsey."
"Equipped with a standard 3.25m3 capacity rock bucket, the new D600W loads the quarry’s two 30-tonne payload Aveling Barford RD30 dumptrucks in four passes, each bucket load weighing an average of 7.5 tonnes."
"According to quarry manager Vince Paver, the front-end configuration of the Broyt loader is ideally suited to this type of heavy digging and loading application in hard, abrasive rock."
