Parker Plant Enters North and South American Markets

Parker Plant Limited, an England-based manufacturer of crushing and screening equipment has established itself in the North and South American market place as Parker Plant, Inc., with headquarters in Sarasota, Fl. It also plans to establish a service center in the Northeast. Stu Gamble will serve as vice president of the newly formed U.S. company.

            Parker manufactures a wide range of jaws, impactors, cones, and scalper and deck screens, available in tracked, wheeled, and stationary models. The company introduced the 1112R mobile track mounted impact crusher, pictured, to the North American market during the 2011 ConExpo-Con/Agg held in Las Vegas in March.

            The medium throughput horizontal impactor includes a side discharge conveyor for removal of fines via a vibrating grizzly section, a large durable chassis designed to offer allow access to maintenance points. It also has a hydraulically operated single deck screen and re-circulating conveyer which the company says allows oversized material to be fed back into the crusher for further reduction.
