Cedarapids CRH1313R Portable Crusher & Screen

Through the years, Iowa Manufacturing Co. expanded its product line through in-house development and acquisitions. The company was among the first manufacturers to build hot mix asphalt plants and all-electric vibratory screeds for asphalt pavers.

Cedarapids History

In 1923, Howard Hall and John Jay founded Iowa Manufacturing Co. in Cedar Rapids, Iowa. Seeing the increase in automobile production, the pair began to develop road construction equipment. The company built the first portable aggregate plant, which crushed stone at the construction site. This innovation replaced several pieces of equipment by combining crushing, conveying, and screening into one machine.

During World War II, Iowa Manufacturing’s equipment was sent around the world to build roads and landing strips for the military. Five years after the end of the war, the company expanded its crusher product line through the acquisition of impact crusher manufacturer New Holland Equipment, which had been in business since 1912.

Following the death of founder Howard Hall, Iowa Manufacturing was sold to Raytheon Co. in 1972. Soon after, the company acquired El-Jay. Iowa Manufacturing Co. officially changed its name to Cedarapids in 1985. Four years later, Cedarapids acquired Standard Havens.

Terex acquired the company in 1999 and, 10 years later, combined the Cedarapids, Simplicity, Canica, and Jaques brands into a single crushing and screening product line called Terex Minerals Processing Systems.
