A method for operating an aggregate material processing plant according to two alternative modes of operation. In a first operating mode, unprocessed aggregate material is deposited onto a crusher feed conveyor and then fed to a crusher. The crusher produces crushed aggregate material, which is conveyed by a collection conveyor to a vibratory screen assembly at a first speed. The vibratory screen assembly sizes aggregate material deposited onto an upper screen deck thereof. Unscreened aggregate material is conveyed by a transfer conveyor to the crusher feed conveyor. In a second operating mode, unprocessed aggregate material is deposited onto the vibratory screen assembly, which sizes the aggregate material. The transfer conveyor conveys unscreened aggregate material to the crusher feed conveyor. The crusher feed conveyor feeds aggregate material to the crusher, which produces crushed aggregate material. The collection conveyor conveys crushed aggregate material to the vibratory screen assembly at a second speed.

Method of use of aggregate processing equipment

A filter system for ambient air to remove airborne particulates in air that is to be used for engine operation. A filter media that is pervious to air and impervious to the particulates may be coupled to a filtered air chamber, which in turn may supply filtered air to the engine's air intake system. In various embodiments, the engine's air intake may be used utilized to draw air through the filter media into the filtered air chamber. An pressurized gas pulsing system may be used to periodically urge reverse airflow through the bag walls to maintain the permeability of the walls to the clean air.

Filter system for internal combustion engines operated in a contaminated atmosphere

An aggregate processing unit is provided that includes an in-feed conveyor adapted to have a first lower section that can move laterally to accommodate various processing configurations and to also allow for enhanced mobility.
