interview to CONSTRUCTION OPPORTUNITIES, C RAMANA KUMAR, HEAD – MARKETING & SALES SUPPORT,
TAURIAN MINERALS PROCESSING PVT. LTD, provides an over view on the industry, his company’s range
of machines, new launches and a lot more.
Briefly give us an overview of the Crushing & Screening equipment
industry, the latest trends, current business drivers, sector challenges
and market dynamics? What are the types of crushing & screening
equipment currently most in demand?
The C&S equipment industry has evolved significantly over the last
two & half decades in terms of plant capacity build-up as well as
technology, i.e., from 50 TPH of Jaw-Jaw-Jaw Crusher combinations to
500 TPH & above of Jaw Crusher–Cone Crusher(s)–VSI combination as
an industry standard. When the national highways expansion projects
started more than two decades ago the standard capacity plants
were 150 – 200 TPH. However, as projects became larger in size &
timelines compressed, plant capacities steadily went up to 250-300
TPH & in some cases even 350 TPH!
An interesting trend over the last decade has been the steady growth
of mobile crushing plants. Despite having a premium over stationary
/ portable plants, many road contractors are ready to invest in them
as they are compact, easily transportable, self-contained, require no
civil work & are ready to be operated in a day’s time, sometimes even
a few hours’ time if the associated infra is in place! This has enabled
the contractor to focus on road building activity, his core competence.
