Terex unveils enhanced washing screen

01 November 2021

Terex Washing Systems (TWS) has launched the enhanced M1700X mobile washing screen, which is a redesign of the M1700 and improves its M Range of mobile washing screens. The M Range can produce up to five products (three aggregates and two sands) in applications including aggregates, recycling, industrial sands and mining, says the Terex brand.

Barry McMenamin, Business Line Director of TWS, says: “The addition of the M1700X will enhance an already significant product range offered by Terex Washing Systems, meeting both market and customers’ needs for mobile washing. Our team of engineers have worked closely with our customers to develop improvements to an already high-performing machine, such as the new tracked rinser that features a redesigned high fluidisation wash box, increased standard features and improved washing efficiency.”

The improved M1700X features a new integrated high fluidisation wash box to maximise deck efficiency, increase media wear life and has an adjustable spray system. It also boasts increased standard features, including a hydraulic raise and lower for quicker service access, hydraulic tensioning, and one-piece catchbox for easy machine reconfiguration, McMenamin says.

Setting new standards in screen box technology, the M1700X has heavy-duty bearing arrangement for long service life, higher levels of screening efficiency and throughput, increased serviceability and maintenance access as well as increased screen angle adjustment that is highly adaptable for feed material variation.

“The model has also been redesigned with a focus on wet processing efficiency, with 16 per cent increase in spray capacity across all decks, industry-leading levels of catchbox sealing, innovative configurable catchbox outlets and configurable blending to maintain material specification,” he adds.

Additionally, the M1700X is easily transported, has a quick set-up time (typically 15 minutes), and has optional hybrid power available around the world.
