Forth Resource Management take delivery of Neuenhauser Star Screen

Scottish company Forth Resource Management (FRM) specialize in organics material recycling. Since 2007 Riverside Machinery have worked closely with the team at FRM and in that time have delivered three Neuenhauser Star Screens to work on their various composting sites throughout Scotland.

FRM selected Neuenhauser Star Screens because the material being processed tends to have a very high moisture content, and so to try and screen this through a conventional flat-deck screen or trommel screen would result in a very low output. 

According to Riverside Machinery the Neuenhauser Star Screen is suitable for screening compost and green waste as well as screening sticky stone and soils, wood chip, coal, RDF, and other material that conventional screens struggle with.

This latest generation Star Screen from Neuenhauser now benefits from a JCB 4-litre engine which, under normal working conditions, returns approximately 4-6 litres/h fuel consumption. This is achieved by the electronic system fitted to the machine that will only work the engine as hard as it needs to be. If the machine is not being fed material for any length of time the engine revs will fall, thereby reducing fuel consumption.
