A Powerscreen PT400X Jaw Crusher, 1000 Maxtrak Cone Crusher, and Chieftain 1700 Screen were commissioned to work on a Border Roads Organisation (BRO) project near Demchok, close to the China border, at Umling La, Leh Ladakh (UT). At an altitude of 19,024 feet, this project is at the world's highest motorable pass and aims to produce road construction materials such as Granular Sub Base (GSB), Wet Mix Macadam (WMM), and aggregates (5mm, 10mm, 20mm).The site鈥檚 high altitude presented significant challenges due to low oxygen levels and temperatures, which dropped to -23掳C during the project. Additionally, the terrain was hilly with sharp bends and no feasible roads, complicating the transportation and installation of the equipment onsite.Powerscreen equipment is uniquely suited and reliable in extreme climatic conditions due to its robust engineering and advanced technology, reinforced by rigorous testing and quality materials to withstand harsh environments鈥攊ncluding high-altitude conditions. Additionally, the innovative design of Powerscreen equipment allows for dismantling and reassembly, facilitating transportation and installation in rough, inaccessible terrains. To navigate the rough terrain, the service team expertly dismantled the Powerscreen equipment for transport and reassembled it on site. Despite the extreme conditions, the service team completed the installation and commissioning in 15 days.The Powerscreen PT400X Jaw Crusher has been set up as the primary crusher and takes large and variable sized feed material to be fed into the 1000 Maxtrak Cone Crusher, which uses Automax庐 crusher technology to provide high volumes of excellently shaped, consistent product. This material is then screened by the Chieftain 1700 Screen to separate the product into its various sizes.The successful deployment of Powerscreen equipment at Umling La has enabled the BRO to produce the necessary materials for their road project, ensuring the continuation of vital infrastructure development in the region. The infrastructure will improve access to remote villages, making it easier for residents to travel for medical care, education, and other essential services. The road will also facilitate the delivery of goods and services, contributing to the overall socio-economic development of the region. The enhanced connectivity also boosts local businesses and tourism, with many tourists attracted by the world鈥檚 highest motorable road providing new income opportunities for locals through homestays, guided tours, and local crafts.鈥淭his project underscores Powerscreen's commitment to delivering high-performance solutions in the most challenging environments,鈥� said Ranga Swamy, Director 鈥� Customer and Product Support. 鈥淲e are incredibly proud of our service team鈥檚 exceptional efforts and resilience in overcoming the extreme conditions at Umling La. Their dedication and technical expertise were crucial in achieving this high-altitude installation.鈥漈he combination of durability, adaptability, and high performance along with the knowledgeable and skilled service team makes Powerscreen the preferred choice for challenging projects worldwide.
