Kleemann crusher and screens achieve success in the US
Mohawk Valley Mining deploy Mobiscreen and Mobirex units to tackle demanding processing tasks
OPERATING a limestone quarry on the Alabama–Florida border brings unique challenges for US materials producer Mohawk Valley Mining. Since May 2022, the company has been supplying high-quality limestone products for road construction while also trading in larger stone formats.
But with each state requiring different grain sizes and material specifications, managing director Joey Rutkowski and his team needed a flexible solution to serve both markets efficiently.
‘Kleemann supported us right from the planning stage,’ explained Mr Rutkowski. ‘As a young company, it was great to benefit from the expertise of their specialists in designing the entire process.’
Working with Kleemann, the company developed a tailored processing set-up: two coarse screening plants – the Mobiscreen MSS 802i Evo and Mobiscreen MS 15 Z – to produce material to meet Florida’s road specifications, while oversized material is processed further in the Mobirex MR 110i Evo 2 impact crusher to meet Alabama’s requirements.
The result is a versatile material processing arrangement that handles sticky limestone with ease and allows Mohawk Valley Mining to serve aggregate markets in two states with confidence. Mohawk Valley Mining are also using the Mobirex MR 110i Evo 2 mobile impact crusher in combination with the two Kleemann screening plants to process their challenging limestone.
For the company, efficiency was just as important as performance. And the entire setup delivers low fuel consumption, making it highly cost-effective.Mohawk Valley Mining were also impressed with how quickly their largely inexperienced team has become more productive using the Kleemann technology and systems. ‘The crushing plant’s SPECTIVE operating concept is very intuitive. This saves time and minimizes errors,’ highlighted Mr Rutkowski.
For Mohawk Valley Mining, ease of use goes beyond the SPECTIVE platform: smarter details, excellent accessibility to all components, and the automatic operation of the MSS 802i Evo – which folds all belts in the correct order at the push of a button – make day-to-day work simple, safe, and efficient.
By choosing Kleemann’s mobile processing solutions, the construction materials firm has positioned itself for long-term success. Mr Rutkowski concluded: ‘Our collaboration with Kleemann gives us confidence in our future. We are definitely on the right track.’
