INTRODUCTIONS & UPDATES

OCC auger screen

Electric hybrid crushing plant

SBM

NEW CRUSHERS FEATURE HIGHPERFORMANCE SCREENING

SBM has introduced three tracked models to its JAWMAX and REMAX lines of crushers, targeting the 40-ton mobile range. Ideal for applications processing materials ranging from concrete rubble to hard natural stone, these new 450 model crushing plants feature options to run as diesel-electric or fully electric.

Both new 450 models feature a high-performance pre-screening unit that effectively separates contaminated or valuable material, which helps in reducing crusher wear while improving results in terms of quality and output, increasing previous model hourly capacity by about 50 tph. These plants are also designed for ease of transport, can be loaded and unloaded easily, are operational in just over five minutes and use multi-functional remote and intelligent controls.

CP Group

NON-WRAPPING, SELF-CLEANING OCC AUGER SCREEN DESIGNED FOR MRFS

CP Group’s new OCC Auger Screen is a patented machine to separate old corrugated cardboard (OCC) in MRFs. It separates mid- to large-sized material using a series of steel cantilevered tri-lobe augers to create a clean OCC fraction. According to CP, the OCC Auger Screen eliminates the need for presorting and can go directly after the infeed conveyor, providing the same benefit as a disc screen to separate material without wrapping. Units also feature self-cleaning shafts and a rotating screw that allows wrapping material to come off the opposite end. An additional benefit is that when placed in front of a traditional presort, material, including small hazardous items such as sharps, are screened out before any employees touch it.

Cable hoist

Stellar Industries

EXPANDED LINE OF DEMOUNTABLE PRODUCTS INCLUDES NEW CABLE HOIST

Stellar has released the SI-30/40 cable hoist, the newest addition to the manufacturer’s line of demountable products. The company says it has made numerous improvements to the standard cable hoist including hydraulic gear pumps, zinc-plated pins, improved cable routing and decreased shipping weight to increase payload.

The SI-30/40 can handle containers ranging from 18 to 22 feet and has a lifting capacity of either 30,000 pounds or 40,000 pounds, based on either a single-axle or tandem-axle chassis. When mounted to a single rear-axle chassis the SI-30/40 becomes an ideal option for waste collection and other tasks for municipalities, offering excellent maneuverability in tight spaces. Other key features include counterbalance valves to prevent cylinder movement in case of pressure loss, an enclosed reeving cylinder which decreases the exposure to damaging debris, a dump cylinder mounted above and outside of frame rails for easier access and stability when dumping, and bronze bushings in the rollers and sheave for reduced friction during operation.

Cloud-based program control

Diversys

CLOUD-BASED MANAGEMENT TOOL FOR RECYCLING

Diversys Software’s cloud-based SaaS solution for the recycling and waste management industry is designed to optimize every step in a waste management or recycling program or process, regardless of the waste or recovery stream, or program complexity.

This solution delivers value by eliminating paper-based management solutions typically used in the industry. According to Diversys, with real-time data sharing users get full visibility at every stage of a materials recovery program. Plus, by utilizing built-in tools like geotagging, content verification, weight or distance thresholds and other powerful capabilities, errors are virtually eliminated while processing of service provider claims is enhanced.

Diversys also leverages audit-ready, safeguarded and fully encrypted data to aggregate information and provide real-time dashboards along with powerful reports that further assess the health of a program and identify areas that need to be improved.

Pulverizer attachment

Caterpillar

NEW PRIMARY AND SECONDARY PULVERIZERS FOR CONCRETE DEMOLITION

Caterpillar’s new generation of primary and secondary pulverizers are engineered to deliver up to 52 percent faster cycle times, producing more tons per litre of fuel burned. The new line includes three new rotatable primary models – P318, P324 and P332 – which feature bi-directional 360-degree rotation, and three new fixed secondary models – P218, P224 and P232. Both pulverizer series are designed to fit 18- to 50-tonne machines and are ideal for demolishing and reducing concrete and other demolition materials with wide jaw openings that increase efficiency at any angle.

The new design is built around the same SpeedBooster technology found in Cat multi-processors, which quickly closes the jaw when there is no load. When the jaw comes into contact with material, the SpeedBooster hydraulic valve automatically switches to power mode for maximum power, quickly shattering concrete. Other key features include: bolt-on wear components, protected hydraulic components and integrated asset tracking.
