Transforming Mining with Impactful Solutions

For over a decade, Fractum has been at the forefront of innovation in the mining industry, empowering businesses worldwide to enhance efficiency and streamline operations. Our cutting-edge impact breakers are engineered to tackle the toughest challenges, effectively crushing oversized boulders exceeding 150 tons.

Conquering the Hardest Rock:

Fractum’s breakers excel at fragmenting even the most challenging rock types, including bauxite, granite, and basalt, with remarkable speed and precision. Our technology leverages the inherent power of gravity, delivering powerful impacts that efficiently break down the hardest materials. This unparalleled efficiency significantly boosts productivity levels at open-pit mines and quarries.

Fractum is well known as a reliable supplier of innovative breaking equipment.
Fractum breakers efficiently crush oversized boulders of more than 150t, depending on the model of the breaker used.
Fractum can break bauxite, granite and basalt rocks in just a few strokes and thereby significantly improve productivity at opencast mines and quarries.
Free-fall breaking technology ensures effective mineral processing at mines and quarries in a safe and cost-effective way.
Fractum offers a number of advantages, including the replacement of the secondary blasting process, increasing the breaking capacity and decreasing the overall production costs.
Fractum can extend working life of the excavator and improve the overall blasting process.

Revolutionizing Mining Practices:

Our free-fall breaking technology eliminates the need for time-consuming and potentially hazardous secondary blasting. By bringing the power of breaking directly to the source, Fractum streamlines operations, reduces costs, and enhances safety.

Unmatched Durability and Versatility:

Traditional mining equipment, particularly chisel-operated hammers, suffers from significant wear and tear. The constant impact and vibration strain the excavator, reducing its lifespan and increasing maintenance costs. Fractum’s innovative design minimizes vibration, extending the service life of both the breaker and the excavator.

Furthermore, our breakers are designed for unparalleled versatility. A single operator can easily switch between breaking and grappling functions using a quick coupler, enhancing efficiency and minimizing labor requirements.

Key Advantages:

  • Unmatched Efficiency: Our free-fall technology eliminates the need for secondary blasting, streamlining operations and reducing costs.
  • Exceptional Safety: Minimal vibration and noise levels create a safer working environment. Our breakers drastically reduce fly rock, minimizing the risk of injury to personnel and equipment.
  • Superior Durability: Engineered for minimal wear and tear, Fractum breakers extend excavator lifespan and minimize maintenance needs.
  • Precise Flexibility: A single operator can easily switch between breaking and grappling functions, enhancing efficiency and reducing labor costs.

How it Works:

  • Powerful Impact: Fractum breakers utilize gravity for maximum impact, efficiently fragmenting rock with minimal effort.
  • Controlled Breaking: Operators can precisely control the breaking process, minimizing fly rock and maximizing safety.
  • Eliminating Blasting: Our high-capacity breakers (100,000 J to 250,000 J) break even the hardest rock in a few strokes, eliminating the need for dangerous and time-consuming blasting.

Safety First:

Fractum prioritizes safety. Our breakers generate significantly less vibration and noise compared to traditional methods, creating a healthier and more comfortable working environment for operators. Unlike chisel-operated hammers and drop balls, which generate dangerous fly rock and debris, Fractum’s technology minimizes these risks. Rigorous risk assessments demonstrate a 15-meter safety zone for personnel and a zero-safety zone for equipment.

Eliminating Secondary Blasting:

Fractum’s high-capacity breakers, boasting impact powers ranging from 100,000 J to 250,000 J, can fragment even the most challenging rock in a matter of strokes. This eliminates the need for secondary blasting, significantly enhancing safety and productivity.

Optimizing Primary Crushing:

Mining companies often face limitations due to closely spaced blasting patterns, which can restrict the size of rocks that can be processed during primary crushing. Fractum’s breakers overcome these limitations, enabling the efficient handling of oversized rocks directly at the source. This prevents blockages and maximizes throughput, streamlining the entire mining process.

Experience the Fractum Difference:

Fractum’s impact breakers represent a significant advancement in mining technology. By prioritizing safety, efficiency, and durability, we empower mining companies to achieve new levels of productivity and profitability. Contact us today to learn how Fractum can revolutionize your operations.

  • Low Wear and Tear

    The wear and tear of traditional mining and quarrying equipment tends to be high; particularly when chisel operated hammers are being used. The chisel, which penetrates hard rock materials, causes excessive vibration, which is transferred back to the excavator. This makes the excavator vulnerable to damage and shortens the life time.

  • When Breakage is Business

    Over the past decade, Fractum has established itself as a leading developer of innovative rock-breaking technology solutions. Sectors that make use of our breakers include the mining, quarrying, and steel milling industry, as well as demolition.

  • The Fractum Breaker Proves its Worth in South African Mine

    The Fractum breaker is manufactured by Danish company Fractum, and is said to be the biggest and most powerful hammer in the world, able to deliver up to 300kJ of energy in a single stroke, which, according to Fractum, is at least 15 times more than any conventional hydraulic hammer can achieve.
