is fitted with the proven CJ412 jaw crusher. This latest generation unit features smart technology for real-time performance moni- toring and adjustment as well as an unblock facility that improves safety and reduces downtime. Other innovations include three- speed electric tracks for precise movement, a redesigned feed station with hydraulic tilt access for easier maintenance and a downstream 125 amp connection for integrating other electric equipment such as screening plants. It also offers flexible configurations - from a vibrating grizzly feeder for clean rock to an under-screen option for fines removal.” Market preparation and support The first Sandvik UJ443E unit in Africa is already in preparation for delivery. To ensure seamless commissioning, Sandvik Rock Processing and S&R Enterprises have invested in advanced train- ing for local service teams. A Sandvik factory technician will also be on site for the installation, guiding both distributor and cus- tomer teams through the process. “Comprehensive lifecycle support underpins this introduction,” Benade says. “We have ensured that our distribution network is ready with spares, technical expertise and tailored aftermarket packages. The Sandvik My Fleet telematics will further enhance support by enabling remote diagnostics and performance monitoring.” The arrival of the Sandvik UJ443E in Africa signals a turning point in mobile crushing technology on the continent. Customers can now access a solution that not only delivers on productivity but also drives progress toward decarbonisation and reduced operating costs. “This first Sandvik UJ443E mobile crushing plant is just the beginning,” Benade concludes. “With the level of market interest we are seeing, we expect more units to be placed soon - helping reshape the future of mobile crushing in Africa.” l
Designed for lower emissions and operating costs, the Sandvik UJ443E can run directly from the electrical grid or switch to diesel or renewable HVO fuels when required.
The energy-efficient Sandvik UJ443E represents a major step forward in sustainable mobile crushing technology, paving the way for electrified solutions in Africa.
SNAPSHOT
This is the first time Africa will see a Sandvik mobile plant built from the ground up on a fully electric track platform.
Built on a fully electric track platform, the Sandvik UJ443E is fitted with the proven CJ412 jaw crusher.
The arrival of the Sandvik UJ443E in Africa signals a turning point in mobile crushing technology on the continent.
This machine consumes about 90% less hydraulic fluid than its predecessors which means lower maintenance costs and a lighter environmental footprint.
