Being able to produce high-quality quality, accurately sized aggregates is essential today, whether it's materials from a surface mine, quarry or an aggregate plant, recycled construction materials from highways, demolition or material handling operations. The Screencore range of scalper screens has developed a reputation for delivering advanced screening globally, being tough, productive, environmentally friendly and accurate. Likewise, the Screencore range of stockpilers has been developed to deliver huge stockpiles of materials, working with their own onboard power unit or powered by a crusher, screen, or plug-in mains or genset.
Despite the excellence of the individual product ranges, in order to combine the attributes of precision screening and scalping with large material stockpiles, two pieces of equipment are required: a screener/scalper and a stockpiler. Now, however, Screencore has combined stockpiling and screening/scalping with the introduction of the new 470 XGRID. This not only provides an efficient and productive solution but also helps minimise expensive outlay on machinery whilst at the same time reducing carbon emissions.
The new Screencore 470 XGRID combines the benefits of a modern heavy-duty primary scalper screen with the obvious benefits of a 15m (50') stacker. Essentially, customers get three machines (screener, scalper and stockpiler) in one, resulting in remarkable reductions in carbon emissions, substantial fuel savings, and the elimination of the need for double-handling fines. Whether it's within the confines of a quarry, construction site, sand and gravel operation, or dealing with soil and mulch, its capacity to effortlessly screen, scalp, and stockpile large quantities of fines without necessitating double handling, or the creation of a wheel loader stockpile, is hugely beneficial.
Robustly constructed, the 470 XGRID scalps materials via a lively screening action but also delivers high performance in fine screening applications. Its vibrating grid is easily fed by a loading shovel or excavator (or crusher or stacker etc) and has an aggressive action for scalping large materials to ensure that only the desired fines product makes it to the stockpile. It is purpose designed to withstand the rigours of handling demanding materials such as rock or demolition concrete, but equally at home when precision screening. The design of the 470 XGRID further allows the machine to operate in very confined spaces whilst the high tracked mobility factor eliminates set-up time.
The 470 XGRID is essentially an extremely versatile and reliable compact scalping, screening and stockpiling machine designed for optimum output and efficiency, whilst prioritising simplicity for the user. It possesses a 1,200mm belt feed hopper and has assorted grid options. Although equipped as standard with a 15m (50') stockpiling conveyor, 18m, 21m or 24m (60′, 70′ or 80′) options are available on request. It can also be configured as a mulch unit with chevrons, agitator and mulch hopper and comes with multifunction radio remote for total control. It is further available in diesel or Dual-Power configuration to suit modern needs.
