SBM REMAX 600 Impact Crusher Makes North American Debut at CONEXPO

Industry Showcase: SBM Brings REMAX 600 to North America

Austrian manufacturer SBM Mineral Processing made a significant statement at CONEXPO-CON/AGG 2026 in Las Vegas by presenting its flagship REMAX 600 tracked mobile impact crusher for the first time on North American soil. The 80-ton machine represents SBM‘s most advanced mobile crushing technology and was showcased alongside the company’s EUROMIX mobile concrete mixing plants at Silver Lot, Booth SV3122. This dual presentation marks SBM‘s emergence as a full-line supplier for North America’s building materials production industry, backed by decades of engineering experience. The REMAX 600 is positioned as a versatile solution capable of serving as either a powerful primary crusher with a maximum capacity of 600 tonnes per hour and a feed size of up to 40 inches, or as a mobile gravel and recycling plant producing up to five end products in a single pass. While such advanced equipment represents significant engineering achievement from a global specialist, OCP Mechanical Company recognises that not every operation requires the scale or investment associated with these premium systems. With over 40 years of manufacturing experience, we offer practical, cost-effective crushing solutions tailored to medium-capacity operations, backed by factory-direct pricing and round-the-clock technical support.

Hybrid-Electrified Drive: Up to 40% Less Fuel Consumption

The REMAX 600‘s defining technical feature is its hybrid-electrified drive concept, which SBM has refined over more than four decades of experience with diesel-electric systems. The power package combines an onboard Cummins X15 diesel engine paired with a 520 kVA generator and predominantly electric auxiliary drives. Under full load, the REMAX 600 consumes up to 40% less diesel than comparable fully hydraulic or partially electrified systems. Field data demonstrates the practical impact: processing limestone at 600 t/h consumes approximately 50 litres per hour, while processing concrete and brick at 340 t/h consumes only 38 litres per hour. Savings increase further when using the optional mains connection, allowing the machine to operate entirely on grid power while maintaining full functionality. Beyond fuel savings, the hybrid concept delivers advantages in uptime and environmental performance: fewer hydraulic systems mean reduced maintenance requirements and fewer potential leak points, while the onboard diesel engine operates consistently in a low-wear, low-speed load range, resulting in lower noise levels and reduced exhaust emissions. For operators in North America facing rising fuel costs and tightening emissions regulations, these efficiency gains represent a meaningful competitive advantage.

Crush Control and Autonomous Crushing: AI-Powered Intelligence

The REMAX 600 serves as the technology platform for SBM‘s pioneering “Autonomous Crushing” project, developed in partnership with the University of Leoben in Austria. At the heart of this system is SBM CRUSH CONTROL, a PLC-based plant management system that continuously records all load conditions, crusher settings, and weighing data, automatically controlling the production process according to preset parameters to ensure trouble-free operation. The system uses comprehensive sensor technology, including cameras, to record and evaluate feed material as well as intermediate and end products in real time. These values are transmitted to SBM‘s centralised digital labs where they are further analysed, and necessary adjustments are made on the “digital twin” of the working machine before being sent back directly to the REMAX 600 in the field. The autonomous crushing system can continuously and autonomously monitor wear of impact tools and blow bars, carrying out automatic gap adjustment during operation without emptying the crusher. According to SBM, this technology will help users and operators with all decisions, permanently support efficient operation, assure optimum product quality at all times, and make an important contribution to saving energy and costs during crushing. For quarry operators and contractors, these intelligent features translate directly to reduced operator workload, consistent product quality, and lower cost per tonne. OCP Mechanical Company‘s equipment is engineered for compatibility with modern monitoring and control systems, with optional packages that provide real-time performance data for predictive maintenance and process optimisation.

Five End Products in a Single Pass: Versatility for Quarries and Recycling

The REMAX 600‘s processing capability extends far beyond simple primary crushing. As standard, the impact crusher with its 1,380 x 1,000 mm inlet is preceded by a double-deck circular vibrating screen, with attachable production screens available in one-, two-, or three-deck configurations. For high-quality recycled end products, the plant can be equipped with two discharge magnets—a cross-belt magnet directly above the main discharge conveyor and a longitudinal discharge magnet above the multi-deck add-on screens—along with up to three air classifiers. This configuration enables the production of up to five high-quality final grain sizes in a single pass, ranging from 0–22 mm to 0–90 mm depending on the application. A standout operational feature is that all equipment remains on the machine during one-piece transport, and thanks to quick-connect cabling, the add-on screens can be removed quickly, allowing flexible use of the unit as a primary crusher. The REMAX 600 weighs approximately 80 tons even when fully equipped, giving it a mobility advantage over comparable 100–120 ton class machines. For quarry operators and recycling contractors, this combination of processing flexibility, product quality, and transportability makes the REMAX 600 a compelling solution for operations that need to adapt to changing material streams and project requirements.

Market Context: Electrification and Automation Drive Equipment Selection

The REMAX 600‘s North American debut reflects two defining trends in the global crushing equipment market. First, hybrid and electric drive systems are becoming mainstream as operators seek to reduce fuel consumption, emissions, and maintenance costs. SBM‘s hybrid concept delivers overall savings from running the plants of 40–75% according to company figures, a compelling economic argument that goes beyond environmental benefits. Second, automation and AI are transforming how crushing operations are managed: the REMAX 600‘s autonomous crushing capability represents the industry‘s first practical step toward self-optimising mobile processing, reducing reliance on operator experience and enabling consistent results even with less skilled personnel. For equipment buyers, these trends underscore the importance of evaluating total cost of ownership rather than upfront price alone. OCP Mechanical Company supports this approach by supplying jaw crushers, cone crushers, impact crushers, VSI crushers, vibrating screens, feeders, and complete crushing and screening plants engineered for durability and efficiency, with factory-direct pricing that eliminates distributor margins.
