Bauma – We have Take Off!

Powerscreen International launched three new mobile screening products at the Bauma Exhibition in Munich (23-29^th April) on stand F7.704/705.
As part of their continuing new product development programmes, Powerscreen have launched a number of exciting new products to the mobile screening industries. Powerscreen are full line producers of mobile equipment from the market entry MkII screen up to the high capacity Horizon 6203 and with increasing production efficiencies through a new £3million plant investment.
The new machines include two new Chieftains (Chieftain 1700 and Chieftain 2100X), Horizon 5163 and Finesmaster 120 Compact. The Chieftains 1700 & 2100X, add to the phenomenally successful Chieftain range (over 10,000 Chieftains are in operation globally).

POWERSCREEN Horizon 5163 & 6203

The Powerscreen Horizon 5163 & 6203 are highly mobile units using tried and tested horizontal screen technology giving the customer a machine capable of handling a material size of up to 250mm (10”), producing high volumes of high specification materials from its precision screening capabilities.

In today’s increasing market there is a high demand for specification materials which must meet British US and EU regulations. The Powerscreen Horizon Range has proved itself in this particular sector of the market giving a product which meets such standards as BS EN 12620 and its US and EU equivalents for high specification concrete production, as well as BS EN13242 and BS EN 13043 and its US and EU equivalents for road aggregates and asphalt. These are just a few of the quality products which can be screened at a high volume and meet the specifications required by our customers.

The Powerscreen Horizon Range is at home in applications such as natural & crushed aggregates, coal, iron ore, crushed & recycled concrete, asphalt and many more.

This machine is a highly mobile unit giving an evenly distributed track capability and a quick set-up time of as little as 30 minutes from its user friendly, integral, hydraulically folding stockpile conveyors and easy to set-up feeder and screen system.

The Horizon 5163 has now been added to the Powerscreen Horizon Range to cater for projects and contracts that do not require the massive out-put tonnage of the Powerscreen Horizon 6203. The Horizon 5163 can produce material up to 600tph, compared to the Horizon 6203 which can produce materials up to 800tph (depending on application). This makes it a more cost-effective purchase for the smaller projects whilst still giving all the advantages of the Powerscreen Horizon 6203. The advantages include being a good scalping unit, as well as giving large production of high specification products for use in concrete and road building and paving.

The tried and tested triple shaft mechanism which creates the highly aggressive action of the screen can be easily adjusted giving a range of amplitudes and G forces which the material is exposed to, to help separate and clean the material into high specification product.

The Powerscreen Horizon 5163 also has the ability to easily change the rate of material-travel over the screen deck. This allows you to pass the material over the screen deck more quickly for higher tonnage or more slowly for increased screening action for materials which are harder to separate - giving a cleaner end product.

ThePowerscreen Horizon 5163, like its bigger brother, has 4 integral folding stockpile conveyors for flexibility and quick set-up as well as wide walkways giving access to all sides of the screen for ease of maintenance and screen mesh change.

The Powerscreen Horizon Range has also been designed to work in crushing set-ups which require a closed loop system for primary, secondary and tertiary crushing processes with the objective of achieving high tonnages of fine sized product which has meet strict specifications.

POWERSCREEN Chieftain 1700

The new Powerscreen Chieftain 1700 has been added to the globally successful Chieftain Range. The Chieftain 1700 has been developed as a highly mobile 2 & 3 deck model giving up to 6 product separation.

This model has been specifically designed to fit into the mid range bracket between the Chieftain 1400 and the Chieftain 2100.

The key features of the Chieftain 1700 include:

Quick set-up time of under 30 minutes;
An adjustable high amplitude 2 bearing screen action which can expose material to varying amplitudes and G force, helping to separate material into the various required specifications;
Hydraulic Screen Angle adjustment varies the material-travel rate over the screen deck, to achieve the cleanest product in the most difficult of applications;
Four integral hydraulically folding stockpile conveyors fold and transport with the machine, removing the need for assisted lifting devises to put the machine into a working mode;
Full access walkways give access to 3 sides of the Screen for ease of maintenance and screen mesh change;
A transverse power-unit giving greater access to the engine compartment for ease of maintenance;
Greater stockpile capacity;
The screen box on the Chieftain 1700 has been designed so that it can use meshes from the existing Powerscreen product range reducing the need for a customer to stock new meshes if that customer already has a Chieftain 1400 in his fleet. Meshes and other parts are detailed in the Powerscreen Genuine Parts Catalogue and can be sourced from your Local Powerscreen Dealer ;
All Powerscreen Products have been designed to adhere to Global Emission regulations and are therefore Tier 3 compliant.

POWERSCREEN Chieftain 2100X

The new Chieftain 2100X is an upgraded version of the Chieftain 2100, available as a 2 & 3 Deck and has an increased screen area of 14% on the bottom deck pushing the screening capability much higher than the Chieftain 2100. Powerscreen Chieftain 2100X

The key features of the Chieftain 2100X include:

Quick set-up time of under 30 minutes;
An Adjustable High Amplitude 2 bearing screen action which can expose material to varying amplitudes and G force, helping to separate material into the various specifications required;
Hydraulic Screen Angle adjustment allows the material-travel rate over the screen deck to vary, achieving the cleanest product in the most difficult of applications;
The oversize auxiliary stockpile conveyor has been designed so that it hydraulically folds and transports with the machine, removing the need for assisted lifting devises to put the machine into a working mode.
Full access walkways give access to 3 sides of the Screen for ease of maintenance and screen mesh change;
Greater stockpile capacity;
The screen box on the Chieftain 2100X has been designed so that it can use meshes from the existing Powerscreen product range reducing the need for a customer to stock new meshes if that customer already has a Chieftain 2100 in his fleet. Meshes and other parts are detailed in the Powerscreen Genuine Parts Catalogue and can be sourced from your Local Powerscreen Dealer;
All Powerscreen Products have been designed to adhere to Global Emission regulations and are therefore Tier 3 compliant.

POWERSCREEN Finesmaster 120 Compact

The POWERSCREEN range of Finesmaster sand classification systems are among the most efficient sand dewatering units available on the market. The debut of the Finesmaster 120 Compact shows how popular the Finesmaster Compact range has become. It is a simplified cost-effective, energy conscious alternative to the main POWERSCREEN Finesmaster range.

The Compact range has been engineering for quick installation and still combines all the key advantages of the Finesmaster machines such as their ability to dewater sand, with maximum removal of water whilst retaining the maximum amount of fine saleable product. The Finesmaster 120 Compact uses centrifugal force within the cyclone to remove clays, silts and slime from sand to bring it into specification crucial for the construction industries.

Full details of these products and how they can work for you will be available from the engineering, sales and after sales specialists on the Powerscreen stand at Bauma (F7.704/705).
