An ISO 9001:2015 group with
six decades of long journey translating vision into reality in design,
manufacturing of Crushing & Screening plants for Infra Mining &
Recycling. Puzzolana focuses in developing technologies to suit Indian
operating conditions from concept to commissioning Upto 1200TPH Crushing &
Screening Plants of Stationary, Modular, Wheeled, Crawler and Sand Plants for
production of Aggregates, Sand, Metallic & Non Metallic minerals. Road making Machineries like Road Pavers
& Road Milling machines.
Puzzolana, from its very
inception has been a strong believer of #MakeInIndia & #AtmaNirbhar-Bharat
with the setting up of an in-house design / R&D centre where new products
are conceived & designed and state-of-the-art in-house five major manufacturing
facilities in Hyderabad & a large casting facility in Dharwad. With regular
feedback from service engineering & customers, Puzzolana constantly
improves existing equipment / plant designs. These are critical for equipment /
plant performance and ease of maintenance.
Puzzolana is proud to state
that they were the pioneers in manufacturing the country's first crawler mobile
crushing & screening plants that can run on dual power. These hybrid models
have diesel generator sets as a standard fitment. Where in the event of
availability of Grid Power, the machines
can be operated with changeover switch. By connecting to the grid, the plant
operator can avoid the challenges of managing large quantities of diesel in
terms of paper work, transportation, storage & safety. This pioneering step
has been a major attraction to customers who have appreciated the immense
benefits that can be derived by using grid power, besides the low cost of
production.
What
are the main product offerings by Puzzolana in the crushing and screening
sector?
In the construction industry, we will showcase our extensive range of crushers and screens, including jaw crushers, cone crushers, a new series of VSI crushers, sanders, plaster sanders, impactors, and hammer mills. Puzzolana has also introduced the new, rapidly deployable Speed Bharath Series, mobile crawler crushers, and various types of 2, 3, and 4-deck screens. Additionally, Puzzolana has developed a new range of P-Tech screens designed to handle high moisture content.
What
sets Puzzolana's products apart from competitors, in terms of unique selling
points (USPs) and key features that distinguish them?
Puzzolana introduced a new
series of jaw crusher size 1500mm X 1280mm capable of crushing boulders up to
+1200 mm for crushing, with a capacity range extending upto 1000TPH. Furthermore to meet the output
of Jaw Crusher and to address secondary applications, we have developed and
launched a cone crusher with a capacity of up to 700TPH of (-) 45mm product and
350TPH of (-) 22mm
To prolong the lifespan of
wear parts, especially in challenging conditions such as abrasive ores like
quartzite, we have conducted extensive research on wear patterns and profiles
of jaw plates and cone liners in such crushing plants. This research has led to
the creation of customized designs tailored specifically for these
applications, resulting in increased wear part durability.
The integration of larger
machines optimizes plant configurations, requiring fewer crushers, while
automation improves production capacities and facilitates mainte-nance, thus
reducing operational costs and manpower requirements.
In summary, these
advancements contribute to a reduction in the overall cost per tonne of
production and enhance system efficiency, ultimately leading to a decrease in
the cost per ton of production and maintenance friendly
How
does Puzzolana ensure the technical resilience and adaptability of its crushers
and screens to different terrain and soil characteristics?
Puzzolana has developed
high-capacity, high-quality plants featuring larger, more productive crushers,
along with expanded screens and feeders, to enhance our extensive range of
equipment. This meets the current demand for aggregates in infrastructure
projects. In mining applications, depending on the type of minerals, capacities
range from 500 to 1000 TPH.
For quarrying applications,
the choice of crushers depends on the terrain. For example, in hilly regions
like Uttarakhand and the North East States, track plants with capacities up to
250-300 TPH are ideal due to their hybrid diesel and electric design.
Conversely, for stationary plants serving super expressways, capacities
typically start from 300 TPH and can extend up to 750 TPH.
Does
Puzzolana cater to the African market, especially in countries like Kenya?
 We have done a project of 350tph of (-)22mm
for Lafarge Holchim Ltd, Zambai. We provided a Crawler Impactor of 170TPH to
Ivory Coast, West Africa. We have also supplied Crushing & Screening Plants
to Nigeria, Kenya, Uganda & Etophia.
