Shell Omala S3 W FR
Photo: Shell Shell Omala S3 W FR is a high-performance synthetic industrial gear oil designed to provide excellent protection for gears and bearings operating under extreme conditions. It is formulated with advanced synthetic base oils and a carefully balanced additive system to provide exceptional wear protection, excellent thermal stability, and resistance to oxidation and deposit formation. In a pit or quarry, your machines operate under extreme conditions, including high loads, high temperatures, and exposure to dust and other contaminants. The gearboxes and other components of these machines require a high-performance lubricant that can withstand these conditions and provide reliable protection against wear and damage. Shell Omala S3 W FR is specifically designed for use in industrial gearboxes and other equipment operating under extreme conditions, making it an ideal choice for use in the harsh operating environment of a pit or quarry. Additionally, its resistance to oxidation and deposit formation helps to ensure reliable performance over extended periods of use, even in the presence of dust and other contaminants. Learn more.

McLanahan Ultra Sand Plants
McLanahan Ultra Sand Plants provide an alternative method for processing sand, delivering higher yields, more consistent material and a drier product compared to other wash equipment. Ultra Sand Plants are a combination of a Sump, Pump, Hydrocyclone and Dewatering Screen, and are designed for a wide variety of applications from the dewatering of sand to being a key piece of a multistage wash system. Due to the greater separation efficiency of Hydrocyclones/Separators™, Ultra Sand Plants are proven to deliver higher product yields than Fine Material Screw Washers. They also achieve a significantly lower moisture content from the dewatering screen, depending on the sand's characteristics. This results in a product that can be used immediately, steeper stacker angles for increased stockpile capacity, reduced water loss, and improved housekeeping. Since every site has unique requirements, McLanahan is committed to designing systems tailored to specific processes. Ultra Sand Plants can be engineered to provide the most effective solution for your site. Learn More about McLanahan Ultra Sand Plants. Keep Reading

Masaba Inc. Self-Contained Hydraulic Radial Stackers
Photo: Masaba Designed and built entirely by Masaba, our Self-Contained Hydraulic Radial Stackers allow producers to move material anywhere. These road- and pit-portable hydraulic radial stackers operate under their own power via a 72 HP Yanmar onboard diesel-powered hydraulic unit, making them ideal for remote operations. Built to the same rigorous specifications as our traditional electric-powered stackers, and not limited to lighter steel weights and brandless components, Masaba self-contained stackers are already being referred to by customers as “an entirely different breed of self-contained stacker.” Our current line of Self-Contained Hydraulic Radial Stackers is available in a standard belt width of 36-in and in standard lengths of 80-ft and 100-ft. They deliver 500 tph capacity at an 18° incline. The stackers feature hydraulic raise, lower, and fold (the latter is a feature on the 100-ft model). With our swivel-block axle design, they can be used inline as a transfer conveyor or as a radial stacker. We will offer additional lengths in the future — and we’re happy to work with… Keep Reading
Produce up to 15,000 Tons Per Hour with the Niagara XL-Class Vibrating Screen
Photo: Haver & Boecker Niagara Haver & Boecker Niagara offers the Niagara XL-Class vibrating screen, which combines advanced exciter drive technology with a wide body to offer producers high-capacity screening action at up to 15,000 tons per hour. The XL-Class is ideal for high tonnage rates, such as iron ore and oil sands applications, and can effectively handle cut sizes from 48 mesh to 10 inches. Each XL-Class machine is custom designed to its specific application using Finite Element Analysis (FEA) to predict the structural behavior of the vibrating screen. The XL-Class features a robust, maintenance-friendly design. The fully bolted, nonwelded construction of the vibrating screen’s side plates eliminates the possibility of stress concentrations from welding. The overhead, bridge-mounted drive system does not interfere with the material flow path, reducing the wear potential that shaft-driven machines experience. The XL-Class is sloped from -3 to 10 degrees offering operations further flexibility, with the negative angle allowing the horizontal screen to be used in dewatering applications. Haver & Boecker Niagara manufactures… Keep Reading

Conn-Weld’s Horizontal Style Vibrating Screen
Photo: Conn-Weld Conn-Weld’s Horizontal Vibrating Screens have proven performance in every application and are designed for low maintenance and high efficiency, especially when combined with a Conn-Weld Sieve. Conn-Weld Horizontal Screens feature a traditional G-Master welded body and come in single or double decks customized for your specific needs. A customized feed system ahead of your vibrating screen will increase wear-life, in addition to maximizing screening efficiency. A feedbox with a fixed or curved sieve, installed with the proper screen media, will offer benefits from a process standpoint by taking out some of the material before it gets to the vibrating screen thus increasing the throughput. Conn-Weld demonstrates process solutions in action by getting the most out of an 8’ x 16’ DD Horizontal Scrubber Discharge Screen as seen in this video. Learn more. Keep Reading
