He says the price tags on these attachments also make them a better choice than mobile jaw crushers. In terms of attachments for mining, the ALLU Transformer M-series from Egelquip is a range of multi-faceted screener crushers powered by the carrier they are mounted on. These hydraulic attachments are ideal for material production at quarries or mining operations, as they solve chute blockages and other material flow problems while being able to transport saturated material heaps. “The Transformer M-series screening buckets adapt to the processing needs and rock mass they encounter. Different drum configurations of 50, 75 and 150 mm mean that differing fragment sizes may be processed in one step.” He says the entire process is fully mobile and can replace conventional crushing and screening plants in many instances. The processed material is also of uniform quality, which enables the transportation of the material by dump truck immediately after processing. “By applying the correct amount of crushing force together with the correct drum type, the attachment also separates any hard, unwanted materials in the rock

mass while crushing the soft material.” He says the Transformer M-series screening attachment was developed specifically for companies that deal with large amounts of material on a regular basis. It is designed to fit excavators up to 160 t and wheel loaders of up to 90 t, that are able to screen and crush materials from 15 to 150 mm. The main applications for the Transformer M-series screener crusher include soft rock quarrying; mineral excavation and mining; sand and gravel production and material processing and loading. Oil shale, coal, limestone processing and any soft rock crushing is completed with the ALLU Transformer M-series screener crusher. Future innovations “We are hoping to assist the South African and African markets to look at excavators and/or front-end loaders as carrier tools. We are moving into an environment where most machines will come standard with the third hydraulic function as operations are going to lead towards hydraulic attachments as a means for improving efficiency and increasing profitability,” says Modisane. b
