Terex Finlay introduce the 893 screener

Company adds to its 8-Series stable with launch of new tracked mobile heavy-duty screening machine

TEREX Finlay have announced the launch of the new 893 heavy-duty screen – the latest machine in their stable of 8-Series tracked mobile heavy-duty screens.

The 893 is a highly versatile machine engineered and built for working in quarrying, mining, construction and demolition debris, topsoil, recycling, sand, gravel, coal, ore and aggregate applications.

The machine’s aggressive forward-facing inclined modular configuration screenbox has a 6.1m x 1.83m (20ft x 6ft) top deck and a 5.5m x 1.83m (18ft x 6ft) bottom deck. Depending on the working application of the machine, hydraulic adjustment can be used to vary the working range angle of the screen box between 14 and 18°. The screenbox top deck can be fitted with a variety of screening media including mesh, punch plate, bofor bars and tines. The bottom deck can be fitted with mesh, punch plate and cascade fingers.

A high-performance 1,100mm (44in) apron feeder and hydraulic gearbox drive is fitted to the machine as standard and has proven performance and versatility in demanding and varied working environments. The hopper has a 10 cubic metre capacity as standard.

The machine is powered by either a 151kW (202hp) Tier 3/Stage 3A Caterpillar C6.6 engine or a 129kW (173hp) Tier 4i Caterpillar C4.4 engine and is equipped with three hydraulically folding discharge conveyors allowing for maximum stockpiling capacity and associated benefits of rapid set-up and tear-down times.

The heavy-duty crawler tracks and optional radio remote-control unit make on site mobility very easy.

A key feature of the machine is the ability to hydraulically raise the screenbox 600mm (24in) at the discharge end to provide additional clearance for easy media changes as well as routine maintenance of the screenbox and fines transfer.

The plant has the capacity to process at a rate of up to 800 tonnes/h and can be fed either by a tracked mobile crusher or an excavator.

The fully self-contained plant can be hydraulically folded and ready for transport in less than 30 minutes, making it particularly suitable for large-scale contract screening projects were a highly productive and dependable screen is paramount.
