The new QH443E is Sandvik’s flagship Q-Range electric-driven cone plant. The company says that it takes a “significant step” towards bridging the gap between tracked mobile, wheeled portable, and stationary plants by combining electric drives and track mobility on a single platform.

The QH443E features an updated tracked platform with a diesel/electric generator-based drivetrain, Optik automation system, My Fleet remote monitoring, and the Sandvik CH440 Hydrocone crusher.

This advanced cone crusher has the Hydroset CSS regulation and protection system, which is said to optimise production and keeps track of liner wear through the Constant Liner Performance (CLP) technology.

Swedish-based Sandvik says its internal test show that running the QH443E via the onboard genset can result in up to 25% fuel savings and a 78% reduction in oil usage compared to previous generations.

Sandvik says the QH443E is well suited for secondary or tertiary crushing in aggregate production, quarries, and mines.

The QH443E electric cone crusher completes Sandvik’s electric train, which includes the UJ443E fully electric jaw crusher (launched in 2023) and the QA452e hybrid triple-deck Doublescreen (launched in 2022).

“Sandvik Mobiles has always been at the forefront of innovation, and completing the development of our tracked electric train marks a significant step towards a more sustainable and cost-effective future for the crushing and screening industry,” said Manny Maloney, President, Sandvik Mobile Crushing and Screening Division.

“This is just the beginning of our commitment to developing solutions that improve the productivity, safety, and sustainability of our customers’ operations. With its advanced capabilities, this technology is also particularly well-suited for heavy-duty applications, including large quarries and mining operations, where maximizing uptime and reduced environmental impact are critical.”

The QH443E will be available in the European market from mid-March and globally later in 2025.
