Mobile conveyors to complement washing range

Terex Washing Systems (TWS) has enhanced its product portfolio with the announcement of the Terex AggreStac conveyor range. The launch took place as part of a TWS global distributor event in the prestigious Carton House Hotel in Maynooth, Ireland in November 2015. This announcement was one of several new product and project services that distributors learnt about during the three-day event.

The Terex AggreStac range currently consists of three options: 50-foot, 65-foot and 80-foot stockpilers. The TWS design engineering team considered a wide range of options and features in the new design to aid the customer, some of which included easy and low cost transport options, which are reflected in the ability of the conveyors to ship in one 12m (40-foot) long container, with track-in, track-out ability, eliminating crane costs and lengthy set-up times. The AggreStac conveyor range shares similar innovative design features to that of TWS’s latest washing solutions and also comprises tried and tested components used in existing Terex equipment such as rollers, drums and drives. The design provides a full range of high specification options including full under-belt and head drum guarding, radio control movement and set-up where required. In addition, the AggreStac conveyors are designed to easily integrate with existing electrical and hydraulic control systems on TWS equipment. This removes the need for TWS customers to use third party suppliers of auxiliary equipment and provides high quality, cost-effective stockpiling equipment to complement TWS’s full range of washing and screening equipment. It also makes for more manageable and effective project management, installation and commissioning of one complete washing solution for the customer.

The AggreStac conveyors have been developed in response to market research, whereby both global distributors and the existing TWS global customer base were consulted as part of an insightful research program. Part of the research identified the need for enhanced stockpile solutions, which are now available through the new range as TWS strives to improve customer requirements.

The machines are manufactured at the company’s state of the art Terex facility in Bangalore, India and the project is the first step in a much bigger conveyor project aimed to serve the bulk material handling industry.” 

One of the TWS distributors, Allan Kane, the general manager of Blue Machinery Scotland Ltd, said the AggreStac line would better position his company to assist customers. “As a distributor for TWS,” he said, “the introduction of the new line of conveyors helps position us to better serve our customer needs in terms of providing them with a complete TWS solution. The new conveyor range adorns many features such as containerisation for shipping, track in/track out and hydraulic controlled functions which will undoubtedly be attractive to our customers.”
