New McCloskey B230 screen

McCloskey Equipment and RG Recycling launch high-performance mobile BIVITEC screen

McCLOSKEY Equipment, together with Binder + Co AG and RG Recycling Ltd, have developed the McCloskey B230, said to be the most innovative mobile BIVITEC screen currently available.

Featuring the largest hopper in its class, the B230’s BIVITEC system can size material down to 0.08mm and is said to provide a number of benefits over traditional systems.

For example, the screen is designed to prevent blinding and pegging through the use of rapidly expanding and contracting dynamic screening mats, keeping the screening surface clean even under the most demanding conditions.

In addition, an ‘ox-horn’ design prevents wear between the screen mats and the side plates of the machine, thereby reducing maintenance time and labour costs, while increasing operating efficiency and eliminating spillage.

Moreover, the hydraulically folding wing plates provide an enhanced rear feed loading target (12ft 6in) and the hopper itself has a capacity in excess of 15 cubic yards.

As with all McCloskey machines, the B230 mobile screener has a 10min set-up time and provides easy on-site manoeuvrability thanks to its user-friendly control system.

Commenting on the new machine, Ronan Ghosh, managing director of RG Recycling Ltd, said: ‘The B230 BIVITEC screen is the best mobile solution for high-volume processing of difficult-to-screen, wet, sticky materials.

‘After trialling lots of other machines, we have found the efficiency and productivity of the B230 to be second to none.’
