The T-Class deck frame is now primarily lockbolted rather than welded to provide optimum strength, reliability and safety. Lockbolts are proven to be more effective than welding in the demanding, load-bearing, high-vibration operation of a vibrating screen to ensure the machine’s structural integrity. The robustness of the machine also permits cross beams to be positioned and lockbolted every four feet instead of every two feet, allowing for better clearance and easier maintenance.
The new design allows producers to upgrade their vibrating screen with Haver & Boecker Niagara’s new Drop Guard system, further minimising maintenance. The innovative liners provide 100% cross beam protection, both reducing wear and extending the life of the vibrating screen. The system simply drops over the cross beam with no adhesive or tools required, making installation quick and easy.
Additionally, Haver & Boecker Niagara redesigned the flat deck frames of the new T-Class vibrating screen for simplified maintenance. The pin & anchor deck frame is adaptable to virtually any pin-style modular screen media. It features polyurethane anchors that are easy to replace and prevent premature wear on the deck frame. Additionally, the open design of the modular deck prevents material build-up on the bar rails. The cap & slide deck frame is adaptable to virtually any groove-style modular screen media and features full rail protection.
The T-Class can also be manufactured for side-tensioned or bottom deck end-tensioned screen media. Each new side-tensioned machine comes with Haver & Boecker Niagara’s signature Ty-Rail quick-tensioning system, which cuts screen change-out times in half.
“The new, more robust T-Class was designed specifically to offer more strength in the middle of the machine, where it’s needed most,” said Duncan High, the product manager behind Haver & Boecker Niagara’s new T-Class design. “Each update was engineered with ease of maintenance in mind, to keep downtime low while providing cost-efficiency.”
All Haver & Boecker Niagara vibrating screens undergo extensive testing, inspection and the industry-leading Pulse Vibration Analysis prior to shipping to ensure correct balance and smooth operation.
