Custom Engineering
Indeco does not pull a tired design off
the shelf and try to adapt it to your
needs. Instead, we visit your site and see firsthand
where briding or backup occurs most frequently,
and custom design a breaker system to cover your
problem area completely and effectively.
>>
Design Superiority
Indeco secondary breaking systems are built from large, welded box section structures with thick multi-plate fabrication in high stress areas. Unlike the competition, we do not add additional weight and cost by adding steel plates where structurally unnecessary.>>
Availability of Spares
Indeco Secondary Breaking Systems are built with many locally available spare parts, so you are not burdened with ordering expensive, proprietary replacement parts. Our booms are built with OEM, field-tested sealing components, and fastened with self-aligning yoke-and-trunnion balls with shims for wear adjustment. There is no need to replace pins and bushings due to wear.>>
Power Pack Flexibility
Indeco Hydraulic Power Units are designed to be application specific. With a variety of electric motors, tank sizes, tank heaters, manual and remote-controls, indeco will tailor your installation for the best possible working conditions.>>
Working Tool
Indeco is a worldwide leader in the design and manufacture of hydraulic breakers. Indeco's HP series is the latest in innovative breaking technology on the market today. Featuring variable speed and power, the HP breaker on your boom system will provide that the precise amount of power where and when you need it. >>

When searching for a pedestal boom system, there are a number of choices out there. None can even come close to Indeco’s new SBS systems.
Heavy Weight Does Not Mean Heavy-Duty
Many pedestal boom manufacturers continue to produce straight-tube booms, reinforced with welded plates. The result is a bulky, heavy boom system subject to a continuous cycle of stress cracking and repair. Indeco SBS breaking systems are made in the image of excavators, with a high-strength steel box construction. The resulting design provides the best strength-to-weight ratio in the business. And, prior to manufacturing, Indeco engineers use a Finite Element Analysis (FEA) in a computer-simulated application, based on the proposed installation. During this simulation, the system components are tested and approved for all possible weight loads, stress points, and vibrations resulting from both normal and abusive operation in the field.
Turntable-Mounted Base
Most pedestal boom manufacturers use a pivoting swing cylinder mechanism to move their booms laterally. While certainly inexpensive, this method limits the range of motion to 170 degrees, unnecessarily exposes the swing cylinder rods to damage from dust and material and leads to undue stress on these typically small cylinders. Indeco SBS breaking systems use a heavy-duty pedestal based on a Rotec slewing ring and chrome alloy bearing system similar to those employed by hydraulic excavator manufacturers. Dual pinion gear swing motors provide smooth, even rotation throughout a 350-degree working range. This design evenly distributes the weight upon the base, regardless of the alignment of the pedestal with the crusher. In other words, the pedestal breaker is equally effective and durable throughout the working range. In addition, adjustable mechanical stops can be incorporated to customize the working range and parking location of the pedestal boom.
Severe-Duty Cylinders
Massive, oversized cylinders control the lift, crowd and curl functions of the pedestal system. Computerized joystick controls allow the operator to “feather” all functions, providing optimum control and accurate positioning. All cylinder connections are equipped with aluminum steel bushings and oversized, hardened steel pins for trouble-free, long-term reliability. All cylinder components are rated at 5000 psi, 70% above the operating pressure of the system for longer service life.
Severe-Duty Plumbing
Indeco SBS boom systems use parflanged hydraulic tubing for maximum durability. It is intelligently routed to be out of harms way near the working end of the system. In addition, a central grease port at the pedestal base supplies and delivers grease quickly to all pivot points through these hard lines.
Superior Power Unit and Controls
Indeco SBS pedestal boom systems are powered by a self-contained hydraulic power unit. A Kawasaki variable displacement piston pump is at the heart of the hydraulic system. With minimal standby flow and load-sensing capability, the pump delivers a high oil output for fast boom and high-powered breaker operation. Power units also feature computer-programmable Indeco Logic, allowing infinite boom control and system management. The performance exceeds the expectations of any operating engineer. Rivaling the control panel for most crushers, Indeco power units are supplied with a computer-controlled operatorsʼ panel that continuously monitors the system to minimize downtime. LED indicator lights immediately illuminate when oil temperature, pressure, or level are out of programmed tolerance. In addition, any electrical fault within the system illuminates another indicator light for prompt attention. In short, proactive computer monitoring prevents a small situation from becoming a potential downtime repair.
Finite Element Analysis FEA and computer aided motion analysis allows the boom to be designed, tested, simulated and improved before the manufacturing process begins. Associative software ensures superior partfits, which means stronger, trouble-free equipment.
Pin Connections
Aluminum bronze bushings running on oversized hardened steel pins are simple and trouble-free.
