Surrey, British Columbia — February 2014 –– The RAPWrangler portable asphalt recycling machine from ACE Group LLC, leaders in equipment and wear parts for the asphalt and aggregate industry, hits the road this year with proven cost-saving design and performance features unique in the industry.  Unlike impact blow bar crusher systems, powerful ACE RAPWrangler recycling systems produce an even reclaimed asphalt product (RAP) size for introduction to drum mixers or batch plants, shredding RAP from football-size chunks to suitable gradations as small as an inch or less.  Processing RAP at a rate of up to 250 tons per hour, the compact and affordable RAPWrangler system eliminates the need for off-site precrushing of recyclable asphalt products. With its simple, low-maintenance design and construction, RAPWrangler delivers the lowest cost-per-ton operation available.

Offered in three sizes to meet users’ tonnage and site requirements, the RAPWrangler system meets the market’s need for reliable and affordable on-site asphalt recycling.  Designed with a single rugged gearbox, it has fewer moving parts than competitors’ machines, thus reducing costly repairs, parts replacement, and downtime.  Its compact size reduces exposure to site damage and accidents, while the smaller electrical requirements needed further lower operating costs.  It is powered by a 30HP or 50HP TEFC motor and can be belt driven or direct drive.  Trusted for RAPWrangler’s decades of proven field performance, cost savings, and reliability, ACE Group is also a preferred OEM partner in the industry.
