BAUMA PREVIEW
The T-Class , Haver & Boecker Niagara says , retains the technical benefits the original concentric technology is known for while improving screening uptime and performance with new features
Innovation in control software
AKW Equipment + Process Design ’ s AKOREL control software will be one of the major talking points on its Bauma stand .
The company has been supplying the AKOREL free-fall classifier technology for many years , offering a wet classification solution that corrects
the sieve curve of raw sand ranging from 0-2 mm or 0-4 mm , in line with customer requirements . Even at high throughputs from 40-500 t / h ( depending on the size ), the AKOREL classifier consistently produces high-quality building sands with the same product quality , independent of the sand feedstock .
By decomposing the sand feedstock into six to 16 individual fractions , and re-blending them afterwards with the use of a user programmable control unit , the AKOREL can generate one or two quality sands with the desired grain size range . In addition to the target of providing the customer with a robust , reliable and low-wear installation , much attention has been devoted in recent years to intelligent use of modern control technologies for data acquisition and processing . The objective of this has been to make classification more flexible and cost efficient , and , thus , contribute more decisively to the conservation of resources .
This focus has seen the company offer two different levels of control systems to its clients : the ‘ Basic Standard-Control Option ’ suitable for the production of simple and constant quality sand output , and the ‘ Premium-Control Option ’ for when the production requires flexibility in the handling of various input and outputs .
These software capabilities have gained significant market acceptance over the years , according to the company . To offer customers even more convenience , AKW has made the software even easier to use through an optimisation process that factors in the need to accommodate throughput , operational , grain size fluctuation and product quality requirements from customers . This will mean customers , in the future , can benefit from : n Maximum user-friendliness ; n A simplified , clear arranged software display and interface ; n State-of-the-art technology including the newest features ; and n An automatic recipe adjustment to raw material fluctuations , without operator intervention . This updated software can be retrofitted on existing AKOREL classifiers , ensuring customers can leverage these benefits for many more years , the company says .
Enerpac to do the heavy lifting
Enerpac , a leader in high pressure hydraulic tool , controlled force products , portable machining , on-site services and solutions for precise positioning of heavy loads , plans to use the upcoming fair to showcase not only its construction-focused offering , but solutions for handling and maintaining mining equipment .
The centrepiece of the Enerpac stand will be the new SBL600 telescopic hydraulic gantry , along with the company ’ s entry-level gantry system for handling mining equipment – the ML40 Mini Lift Gantry . The new E-mover batterypowered load skate will also be demonstrated together with the SCJ-Series 50T Cube Jacks-Ups . It will also feature the Enerpac Power Riser for safe and mobile load lifting of mining vehicles .
