AGG1 2018 Exhibitor Profile: Am Cast
Booth 1464 To answer the call for a machine that can turn waste byproduct into a saleable asset, Am Cast developed the Rocky Transformer. It produces high-quality sand from a variety of aggregate waste materials. From cone crusher byproduct to virgin bank run river rock, the Rocky produces saleable sand product with a spherical grain structure in one pass. There is no grinding or compression but instead 85 to 100 percent usable sand from a 100 percent impact crushing product. It has fewer critical wear parts, helping to reduce machine maintenance needs. www.amcastonline.com Keep Reading

AGG1 2018 Exhibitor Profile: Van der Graaf
Booth 2006 Van der Graaf developed the GrizzlyDrive to deliver a drum motor to the market that can withstand the high-vibratory conditions and the dustiest of aggregate and mining environments. The electric motor on the GrizzlyDrive was redesigned to design “C” standards for 220 to 250 percent starting torque. Because the GrizzlyDrive can be used in high-vibratory applications like crushed or conveyors, the electric motor magnet wire is fused with 15,000 volts dielectric strength and heavier insulation. End flanges are made with a concave profile to allow dust buildup and debris between the conveyor frame and the drive to be discharged, protecting the drive, seals and belt. Additionally, the oil seals used on the GrizzlyDrive were upgraded to mechanical seals that are equipped with protectors that prevent foreign material from penetrating the seal cavity. www.vandergraaf.com Keep Reading
AGG1 2018 Exhibitor Profile: Haver & Boecker
Booth 1641 Designed for minimal structural vibration, Haver & Boecker’s Tyler F-Class vibrating screen is ideal for tough applications, such as scalping and classifying ores, minerals, stones, sand and gravel. The F-Class offers three screen decks and features an advanced double-eccentric shaft design that’s supported by four high-performance, double-spherical roller bearings. Machines experience minimal structural vibration, allowing multiple screens to be placed side by side in the same building. To minimize downtime for screen media change-outs, Haver & Boecker equips cambered decks on the F-Class with its Ty-Rail quick-tensioning system. Additionally, Haver & Boecker offers the Pulse vibration analysis program to monitor the ongoing health of the F-Class and other vibrating screens through real-time views, logged reports and data analysis. www.havercanada.com Keep Reading
