ALLU DN 3-17 processing asphalt for MRD Plant
Leicestershire based MRD Plant provide nationwide services into the recycling, construction, quarrying and mining sectors. The company recently purchased an ALLU DN 3-17 VD TS16/32 to work on an asphalt job they had at Mountsorrel Quarry in in Loughborough. MRD were using the Allu bucket to process larger lumps of asphalt down to a size of around 20 mm so that it could be reused.
The TS16/32 specification bucket features a double blade set up which was suitable to produce a product that matched the customers required fragment size.
This set up allows MRD Plant to process around 50-80 tons of recycled asphalt per hour.
The ‘VD’ in the model name stands for ‘variable drum’, which is a new innovation launched by ALLU at the start of 2023. The variable drum, which is available on the DN 3-12 TS and DN 3-17 TS models, enables you to quickly replace an individual drum or fixed TS blades without the need to open the chain box. This significantly reduces the maintenance time required when working on the buckets.
