Epiroc widens its already extensive portfolio of hydraulic attachment tools with a range of bucket screeners.

“The demands on our customers are constantly increasing and we are happy to now extend our offer with a product that we know will help them save time and make money. Sorting material on-site really increases efficiency and the new Epiroc Bucket Screeners are as reliable and fast as they come,” explains Gordon Hambach, Global Marketing Manager Epiroc Hydraulic Attachment Tools.

The Epiroc Bucket Screeners BS 1600 and BS 2200 with service weights of 1,710 kg (BS 1600) and 2450 kg (BS 2200), combine the best of modern design and sturdy construction to bring customers in the recycling and rock excavation business an even more complete solution. Hydraulic power is transmitted to the basket via a timing belt that doesn’t require tensioning. This reliable transmission solution delivers optimum torque and reduces maintenance time.

“The large diameter of the main roller bearing enables us to fit a much longer basket, compared to other screeners on the market”, says Gordon Hambach and continues “The bigger screening area gives a significant increase in performance and ensures high-quality output.”

Furthermore, the basket features a polygonal design, with 12 sides rather than a smooth rounded surface. This shape enables the material to be shaken in a very effective way to speed up the screening process. The material then passes through hexagonal openings in the mesh and become high-quality aggregates produced from rocks, crushed concrete and recycled material. Straight on the job site. Depending on needs and requirements customers can choose from baskets with six different mesh size openings: 20-30-40-50-60 and 80 mm. The new Epiroc Bucket Screeners are available in two sizes, for carriers between 18 to 38 tons. High resistant steel construction ensures long lifetime in harsh working environment.
