NEW EQUIPMENT NEWS Mobile screeners increase efficiencies aggregate, coal, crusher circuits, and wood chips.” “HPE Africa has recently received delivery of a S130 high-energy screener at our Johannesburg head office facility and taking a walk around this machine is impressive.” This robust machine, which is powered by a 75kW diesel engine, comprises screenbox dimensions of 4 200mm × 1 524mm, which is designed to meet demands of operators who require significantly more screening capacity than a 10’ or 11’ screenbox, but may not require the higher capacity of a 20’ plant. Other notable features of the S130 include remote-control grid-tipping and a wedge system, designed for faster screen changes. The hydraulic linkage structure enables optimum screen coverage at varying screenbox angles, also allowing greater accessibility for screen changes. The hopper has a 4 267mm grid opening, to accommodate the use of larger loading shovels for quicker and more efficient operation. The 1 200mm feed conveyor of this machine ensures high-capacity screening. Stockpile heights of 3.87m and 4.6m can be achieved with the tail conveyor and with a side conveyor, respectively.
