7185 BHS Sonthofen’s rotor impact mills, which produce crushed sand with special characteristics, will be showcased.

The processed grains are cubical, but their edges are rounded, and the company says that dry mortar produced with this type of sand is easier to use and makes concrete easier to pump.

Last year BHS-Sonthofen delivered many RPM-type rotor impact mills for new dry mortar factories in fast-growing Asia and the Middle East.

BHS says the rotor impact mills are increasingly being used for other applications, being employed more frequently to make sand for ready-mixed concrete; in the asphalt industry; in the manufacture of surfaces for sports facilities, as well as for grinding limestone, dolomite, gypsum, anhydrite and quicklime.

The mill can process feed sizes up to 56mm. Larger feed sizes can be used for materials that are easy to crush, such as quicklime. Throughput can reach 75tonnes/hour.

Stand: B2.325/420

    Cat has revised its asphalt compactor range with Stage IIIb engines, revised drum options and a new cab layout. The changes also bring an all-new model – the CD44B – in the seven/eight tonne class, taking the model count to four. A revised cab now gives better sightlines to the drum edges and while the lateral side-shift for the operator’s seat has been retained, the previous 180-degree rotation is now extended to 360-degree rotation, giving the operator more freedom
