A part of Terex, one of the world’s largest Construction Equipment Manufacturers, Powerscreen combine industry experience and engineering know-how to provides the solution to any screening, recycling, washing or materials processing problem.

Powerscreen is the world leader in Mobile Screening. Powerscreen mobile screens are using in a variety of global industries from Mining, Quarrying and aggregate extraction to recycling and waste management.

Powerscreen have been providing equipment since 1966 and have kept ahead through market leading innovations, customer driven Research & Development, strengthen Quality management and enviable global after sales support.

Dry screening is the separation of material into different sized products. The maretial is separated by passing it through a vibrating ‘Screen Box’ which has a number of different-sized screens or meshes – which the material falls through like a sieve. The material falls on to attached conveyers stockpile the end products. The end products can be used in the Building and Construction Industries.

DUNGANNON, NORTHERN IRELAND, 21st January 2010 - Powerscreen, one of the world’s leading providers of mobile crushing and screening equipment, has launched the new Powerscreen® Warrior 2400 as part of its new product development programme.

“The Warrior 2400 builds on the global success of the Warrior 1400 and Warrior 1800, representing the next step in the evolution of heavy duty track mobile screeners. With the Warrior 2400, Powerscreen extends our range of heavy duty screeners, to meet the needs of larger end users and operators in the quarrying, mining and recycling sectors,” said Pat Brian, Powerscreen Global Director of Sales.

The Powerscreen® Warrior 2400 is a multi-purpose unit, capable of handling large feed sizes while remaining convenient to move and transport. It features a heavy duty incline screen with a high amplitude triple shaft drive mechanism, lending itself to screening, scalping, 2 or 3 way splitting and stockpiling materials like aggregates, topsoil, coal, construction, demolition waste and iron ore. The screen will accept a wide variety of media making it suitable for many applications.

Set-up time and ease of operation are aided by hydraulic folding tail and side conveyors, 2-speed tracks, a slide-out tail conveyor facility to aid media access and load sensing collection conveyor circuit to avoid blockages. Its simple-to-use electrical control system allows operators to monitor and diagnose the machine on site via an LCD display without specialist tools. The Warrior 2400 will also be offered with optional dual power.

The Warrior 2400 will be exhibited at the BAUMA exhibition in Munich in 2010 at stand F704/705.
