Atlas Copco Introduces New Attachment

Atlas Copco, Westfield, Mass., has introduced the new DP 2000 hydraulic pulverzier attachment. The new demolition pulverizer attachment offers 292 tons maximum cutting force and 94 tons of crushing force at the jaw tip. With a service weight of 4,520 pounds, the unit is suitable for carriers in the 18 to 27 metric ton weight class.

Operating at a maximum pressure of 5,075 psi and accepting maximum hydraulic flow of 66 gallons per minute, the DP 2000 uses a straight jaw design that allows the pulverizer’s jaws to open to a width of 30.7 inches. This wider opening enables the unit to handle larger pieces of debris.

The DP 2000 is constructed of components created through Finite Element Method (FEM) design. FEM is designed to ensure the attachment has the required strength to withstand the extreme loads of demolition applications while keeping the unit lightweight.

An advanced speed valve on the DP 2000 allows shorter opening and closing cycle times. For easier operation and handling, the unit hydraulically rotates 360 degrees. A built-in rotation protection system reduces wear and tear on the carrier, and the pulverizer’s hydraulic cylinders are guarded for full protection from outside debris.
