Demolition excavator

Yard waste collection system

Leaf Burrito

REUSABLE YARD BAG OFFERS SUSTAINABLE SOLUTION FOR MUNICIPALITIES AND WASTE HAULERS

Leaf Burrito is made of industrial-grade mesh which lays completely flat on the lawn as users pile up brush, leaves, weeds, grass clippings and branches. When done, users fold over the two edges and zip them into the classic “burrito” shape. Sanitation workers can use its heavy-duty carrying straps to ergonomically lift the bag to the truck for emptying and return it back to the curb, just as they would with a garbage can.

This yard waste collection tool is designed to help prevent plastic from entering the landfill, complements city-wide plastic bag bans, eliminates paper bags, allows municipalities to efficiently collect yard debris, and provides waste haulers with a unique way to differentiate their service when bidding on municipal contracts.

Caterpillar

ULTRA-HIGH-REACH DEMOLITION EXCAVATOR

Built to demolish tall structures, the new Cat 340 UHD ultrahigh-reach demolition excavator has a pin height over one percent higher than its predecessor, the 340F UHD, allowing it to reach up to eight floors. More UHD and retrofit boom/stick configurations deliver increased machine flexibility to meet contractors’ job site needs, while the 340 UHD coupling system allows users to switch between booms and sticks, with no special tools, in 15 minutes. Rated at 311 hp (232 kW), this machine’s EPA Tier 4 Final Cat C9.3B engine runs on either diesel or biodiesel fuel up to B20.

Impact crusher

Anaconda Equipment

MID-SIZED IMPACT CRUSHER PROVIDES CONTINUOUS PRODUCTION

Anaconda Equipment’s new I12-R impact crusher is a mid-sized plant designed to offer operators and contractors initial feed material reduction, continuous production and a consistent product shape. Engineered for recycling applications, this crusher comes with a 43-inch-diameter (1,090 mm) 4-bar rotor, and a 45-inch-wide (1,140 mm) impact chamber. The I12-R is also fitted with a large hopper area and a vibrating pan feeder, with a two-tier grizzly section to help facilitate the movement of feed material toward the impact chamber, and to stop fine materials from entering the chamber.

Terex Powerscreen

RANGE OF HIGH-VOLUME SECONDARY SCALPING SCREENS

Powerscreen’s new Titan range of secondary scalping screens, including Titan 600, 1300 and 2300 models, is a simplification of the company’s Warrior range, using key, established features, while tailoring these models specifically for recycling applications.

The Titan 1300 provides power in a compact footprint, ease of transport and is available on tracks. Consisting of an extra-large capacity twin-drive feeder at the rear of the machine with an 1,100mm feeder belt, this machine’s feeder comes with hydraulically folding extensions to allow for side loading of the machine. Additionally, it can withstand heavy loads due to impact bars positioned under the belt in place of impact rollers, and has a folding rear door to allow for maximum versatility.

Sparta Manufacturing

NON-WRAP OCC SCREEN FOR SINGLE-STREAM RECYCLING

Sparta Manufacturing’s new non-wrap OCC screen for single-stream and commercial recyclers uses specially shaped and sized steel discs to optimize the separation of larger OCC from the smaller paper, film and mixed recyclables. According to Sparta, its unique, bi-directional corkscrew motion defies the wrapping and associated maintenance and cleanup that plagues traditional OCC screens. This results in increased uptime, production and recovery efficiency. Plus, a screw style design conveniently directs cleaned, larger OCC off the end of the screen, allowing Sparta’s non-wrap OCC screen to readily replace the standard combination of dual and triple-deck OCC screens with no changes needed to infeed or takeaway conveyors.
