stone splitters ( (click here to return) N series 74 and 135 tonne split force stone splitters The N series stone splitter range features the unique SNELL Fully Floating blade system. This blade technology produces high quality splits from many stone types and dimensional forms. SNELL Fully floating blade™ The innovative SNELL Fully floating upper blade accommodates level or 'wedge' stone through up to 32 degrees roll with free transverse movement. This time proven system transforms splitting by allowing stones of varying dimension to be split easily and to a high quality. The blade carrier floats in 'lifetime-lubricated' guides, with very little friction. This system virtually eliminates transverse guide wear and frame loading, whilst maximizing the available split force. These powerful machines produce an exceptional quality output from varied material with less waste, at high speed, year in year out. They require 'near zero' maintenance (one greasepoint every 6 months). The machine can be powered by SNELL hydraulic packs and when combined with SNELL conveyors, vibrating hoppers and tumblers forms a complete stone processing system. We appreciate from our experience that many applications are specialised. If you would like to supply further information we would be pleased to offer standalone machines or complete systems with additional options to suit your individual requirements.
