    eDaily: Atlas Copco HB 10000 Hydraulic Breaker

    Sept. 28, 2010

    Standing 14 feet high, Atlas Copco’s HB 10000 hydraulic breaker is the most powerful unit in its line. It weighs 10 metric tons, and delivers about 12,000 ft.-lbs. at the tip of the tool—50 percent more impact energy than the company’s HB 7000. It fits on excavators in the 85- to 140-metric-ton class. Featuring PowerAdapt, AutoControl and other Atlas Copco technology, the breaker is designed for primary rock breaking in quarries and is a viable alternative to certain drilling-and-blasting applications.
