Metso launch Lokotrack ST2.8 mobile screen
New track-mounted unit said to set new standard for transportability, capacity and accuracy
ACCORDING to Metso, the new Lokotrack ST2.8 track-mounted scalping screen sets a new standard for transportability, capacity and accuracy in mobile scalping screens, making it suitable for both recycling applications and Lokotrack multi-stage crushing processes, and helping you transform even the toughest feed material into profit.
Typical applications include topsoil separation, demolition, quarries and other processes requiring a scalping screen. The new screen is said to be at its best when the feed material is sticky, wet and difficult, and when high capacity is required. An optional heavy-duty magnetic separator and drums allow the screen to handle metallic material.
At the core of the Lokotrack ST2.8 is a brand new Metso high-stroke screen, which provides the highest stroke on the market and more screening area on the second deck compared with other mobile screens in the same size range. The high eccentric throw translates to power in material separation and a large screening area ensures precision in fines separation.
The new unit is a low-emission machine that will also help reduce operating noise. These benefits combined with compact dimensions make Lokotrack ST2.8 well suited for screening even in the middle of densely populated residential areas. The Caterpillar C4.4 diesel engine meets the latest emission regulations, and the new hydraulic system allows for a lower fuel consumption compared with similar screens. As an additional feature, the Lokotrack ST2.8 can be operated with external electricity and by an intelligent control system.
Special attention has been paid to ease of use. The machine significantly lighter than its predecessor, and requires no tools or cranes for set-up. Push-button control and a service DVD make the unit safe and easy to operate.
