Genesis Introduces Demolition Recycler 150

Genesis Attachments, Superior, Wis., has introduced its Genesis Demolition Recycler (GDR) 150 to accompany its GDR 200 and 300 models. The company says the attachment is designed to provide an alternative for processing concrete in demolition and recycling applications.

The GDR 150 is designed for use with machines in the 15-metric-ton weight class and can be ordered as any of three available configurations: shearing, concrete cracking or concrete pulverizing. The range of configurations makes the attachment well-suited for cutting pipe, rebar or structural steel, crushing concrete or acting as a sizing screen for oversized concrete.

The company says the GDR 150 has a jaw opening of 26 inches, a jaw depth of 25 inches and delivers 85 tons of crushing force at the tip. The new attachment also features a large-bore cylinder and a regeneration valve, which Genesis says eliminates the need for an intensifier and a complex hydraulic system.

“Demolition contractors now have the ability to utilize a lighter-weight, yet more powerful processing tool on a standard or high-reach machine, which can really open the door to previously unbiddable projects,” says Dan Raihala, design engineer for Genesis Attachments.
