The iF DESIGN AWARD is one of the most important design awards in the world and has been regarded for 66 years as an internationally recognised label for first-class design. The jury consisted of 60 independent experts from over 20 countries. Award winners were selected in February 2019 based on the criterion of innovation, functionality, responsibility and positioning.
The GOOD DESIGN Award is an industrial design programme organised once a year by the Chicago Athenaeum Museum for Architecture and Design in co-operation with the European Centre for Architecture, Art Design and Urban Studies. Industrial products characterised by a particularly innovative and well-conceived design are nominated.
The MOBICAT MC 120 Z PRO mobile jaw crusher is characterised by its uncompromising and robust design. It crushes stone at a rate of up to 650tonnes/hour with a maximum grain size of 1,100 x 700mm. The plant has a powerful and efficient diesel-electric drive. The crusher, conveyor belts, screens and chutes are driven electrically. For even more environmentally sound operation, an external power supply is possible as an option.
The plant is controlled at a 30cm touch panel by means of the intuitive SPECTIVE control concept. This permits, for example, the adaptation of the crushing gap to a new application with only a few commands. The operator is guided through the menu step by step. Operating errors are thus avoided and productivity is increased.
The well-arranged design of the machine follows the course of the material flow and permits easy access from all sides. Despite its size with a maximum weight of 83tonnes, the plant can be transported in one piece.
The new MOBISCREEN EVO plant line MS 702/703 and MS 952/953 is characterised by its high output, high flexibility, excellent transportation properties and short set-up times. Its intelligent operator panel makes intuitive and simple operation possible. The simplified screen change meets the highest safety and ergonomic requirements. An environmentally friendly drive via an external power supply is available as an option. The design visualises the functionality in a clearly structured appearance.
"The challenge is to adapt the machine to human requirements and not vice versa. We are very pleased that we succeeded in doing this with the MOBICAT jaw crusher and the EVO screening plants", said Dr. Volker Nilles, managing director of Kleemann.
