- Advanced load sensing auxiliary hydraulics maximizes plant efficiency
NEW Terex Finlay 674 inclined screen
The Terex Finlay 674 is a compact easily transportable machine that offers operators rapid setup and teardown times. The screenbox features three decks giving a large screening area of 170 square feet to provide efficient screening even at small fractions and high capacity. The screenbox features quick wedge tensioning, access holes and bottom deck hydraulic tensioning system to reduce time required for mesh changes. All four discharge conveyors are adjustable and hydraulically fold for transport. The fourth product ‘oversize plus’ conveyor has variable tilt and side slew to accurately discharge material for recirculation and stockpiling.
Key features:
- Triple-deck screen with galvanized all-round fixed catwalk access for ease of operation and maintenance.
- The fourth (oversize plus) conveyor provides variable tilt and slew capability to accurately discharge materials for
- recirculation to crushers or for stockpiling.
- Maximum utilization of the three decks provides ultra-efficient screening capabilities even at small aggregate sizes.
- Updated hopper and belt feeder gives improved material flow onto main conveyor
Terex Finlay 893 heavy-duty screen
The Terex Finlay 893 is a highly versatile and aggressive machine engineered and built for working in large scale quarrying, mining, construction and demolition debris, topsoil, recycling, sand, gravel, coal, ore and aggregate applications. The plant has the capacity to process at a rate of up to 800 tonnes per hour and can be fed either by a tracked mobile crusher, shovel or an excavator. Depending on the application, the working angle of the aggressive screenbox can be hydraulically adjusted to between 14 and 18 degrees.
A key feature of the machine is the capability to change the working angle of the hopper/feeder. The working position can be lowered so that it can work with ease with a mobile crusher. The hopper/feeder working position can be raised to provide a reduced feeder angle when operated in direct mode from an excavator or shovel. The screenbox top deck can be fitted with a variety of screening media including; Mesh, Punch plate, bofar bars & Tines. The bottom deck can be fitted with mesh, punch plate & cascade fingers. This fully self-contained plant can be hydraulically folded and ready for transport in less than 30 minutes making it the ideal machine for large scale contract screening projects where a highly productive and dependable screen is paramount.
Key features:
- Versatile aggressive screen box can be easily adapted to suit many applications.
- Modular configuration screen box with 6.1- x 1.83-m (20- x 6-foot) top deck and 5.5- x 1.83-m (18- x 6-foot) bottom deck screen.
- Screen box angle can be hydraulically adjusted to an angle between 14 and 18 degrees.
- Screen box discharge end can be hydraulically raised 600 mm (24 inches) to facilitate efficient and easy media access and changing.
- All stockpiling conveyors are hydraulic angle adjustable with hydraulic extending head sections for maximum discharge & stockpile height.
- Apron feeder angle adjustable, lower position to accommodate crusher feed, high position provides reduced feeder incline angle when operated in direct feed mode from excavator/loader
Terex Finlay 873 heavy-duty screen
The Terex Finlay 873 is ideally suited to working in aggregates, sand and gravel, top soil, construction demolition, and recycling applications. This highly versatile machine can be fed either by a tracked mobile crusher, shovel or an excavator and has the capacity to process at a rate of up to 450 tonnes per hour. Now available with dual power technology option. On-board electrical motors allow flexibility to run from an outside power supply or standard onboard engine.
Key features:
- Screen box angle can be hydraulically adjusted to an angle between 13 and 19 degrees.
- Screen box discharge end raises hydraulically 500 mm to facilitate mesh changing.
- Screen box can accept punch plate, cascade fingers, bofar bars and speedharps.
- Galvanised access catwalk on both side of screen.
- Oversize conveyor angle can be adjusted from 18 to 24 degrees.
- 1.2-m-wide belt feeder complete with 7-cubic-metre manual folding hopper.
Terex Finlay C-1545P cone crusher
The Terex Finlay C-1545P incorporates the Terex 1150 cone crusher driven through by direct clutch drive with variable speed, automatic tramp relief and hydraulic closed side setting (CSS) adjustment. The machine features an on-board forward facing prescreen module with a 2.1- x 1.52-m (7- x 5-foot) single-deck screen for removal or bypass of fines from the feed material. The fines material can be discharged from the machine using the optional on-board bypass conveyor or reintroduced onto the main product conveyor. Both methods improve the overall plant throughput capacity, product flexibility and liner wear reduction. In applications where pre-screening of the feed material is not required the module can be hydraulically repositioned beneath the hopper/feeder. This provides a more compact working envelope as the feeder/hopper can be hydraulically adjusted to feed directly into the cone chamber.
Key features:
- NEW Terex TC1150 cone crusher provides high reduction and productivity ratios and gives excellent product cubicity.
- The forward-facing pre-screen module maximizes production and reduces wear on the chamber by removing fine materials before it enters the cone.
- The large hopper/feeder on the plant has an automated metal detection system to protect the cone and reduce downtime.
- The pre-screen module can be used to produce a roadbase product from the on-board side conveyor.
