Genesis Expands Product Line

Genesis Attachments has expanded its Logix Processor line, with the introduction of two additional models of the multi-jaw attachment.

Genesis’ new LXP 200 and LXP 400 Logix Processors are designed to bring third-member versatility to excavators in the 50,000 and 100,000-pound. range, respectively, according to Steve Letko, the company’s research and development manager.

 “The decision to add new models was driven by a couple of factors,” he says.  “First, was the success of the first two Logix Processors, the LXP 300 and LXP 500, which prompted a demand for additional size attachments.  Second, was the ongoing push within the demolition industry for use of ultra high-reach machines.  Demolition contractors knew about the inherent power characteristics and multi-jaw functions of the Logix Processor and wanted to team up that power and versatility in a high-reach machine.  We’ve given them that capability: the LXP 400 for high-reach applications and the LXP 200 for ultra high-reach jobs.”

The Logix Processor expands user versatility by allowing extremely quick—and safe—changeovers between shear, pulverizer and concrete cracker jaw sets, and does so while also affording a dramatic boost in power over other multi-jaw attachments. The shear jaws feature the same piercing tip and blades as Genesis’ popular GXP mobile shear, making it ideal for heavy structural steel, including I-beams.  Bolt-on wear parts—tooth beds for the pulverizer jaw and teeth for the cracker jaw—are also designed into the new models.

“The bolt-on wear parts have become something of a mainstay for Genesis products,” says Letko.  “Our ultimate goal in everything we design is productivity and reduced downtime; this approach to wear parts gives our customers both.”
