Powerscreen has hosted an open day event for its North American distributors, which was held in Boston, Massachusetts, where a conference was combined with and an on-site demonstration of a range of Powerscreen crushers and screens, showcasing their adaptability for a wide variety of applications.
“Our Americas open say was an outstanding success and feedback from distributors has been fantastic,” said global product line director, Damian Power. “Economic conditions globally may be challenging, but Powerscreen is committed to reinforcing its position as one of the world’s leaders in mobile crushing and screening equipment for our key sectors and to continue to innovate as we have in the past.”
Along with Powerscreen senior management, representatives from the engineering, quality and applications departments shared improvements and innovations in machines and processes aimed at fulfilling customer needs more efficiently.
Delegates from Scania also attended to have feedback sessions and discussions around their Tier 4i/Stage IIIb engines with the North American distributors.
The event also included visits to two neighboring quarry sites to see new and existing equipment working together. The first site in Walpole featured an XH500 impact crusher feeding the new Warrior 1400X screening machine working on a recycled concrete and asphalt application. The crushed material from the XH500 was fed through to the Warrior 1400X which was set at 75mm while the bottom deck was set at 25mm producing 75mm+, 25-75mm and 0-25mm.
The second site at Wrentham had a new XA400S pre-screen jaw crusher feeding a 1300 Maxtrak cone crusher, feeding a Chieftain 2100S screen and a separate Warrior 2400 screen, working on blasted granite. The pre-screen on the jaw was set at 50mm with the Chieftain configured at 25mm on the top deck, 13mm on the middle deck and 6mm on the bottom deck. The Warrior had a top deck of 100mm and a middle deck of 50mm.
