When hundreds of tons of solid stone lock up a primary jaw crusher, stopping operation isn't an option—it's a high-stakes maintenance emergency. Watch as an experienced crew tackles a completely jammed aggregate hopper to free massive boulders wedged deep inside the crushing chamber.
Clearing a jammed hopper requires intense coordination, specialized hydraulic hammers, heavy rigging, and extreme caution to deal with trapped kinetic energy and shifting rock loads.
