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

    Dana used bauma 2013 to show a hydraulic hybrid concept for use with wheeled loaders, offering the potential to reduce fuel consumption by 20-40%. Called PowerBoost, the system uses high-pressure hydraulic accumulators to store up fluid power that can be released to assist the engine in driving hydraulic pumps and motors. “PowerBoost offers hydraulic power assistance to almost any machine function, to prevent peak loads on the engine during short duty cycles such as loading,” said Donald Remboski, Dana vice

  • MOBA’s new PAVE-IR system features a high-speed temperature scanner to enhance road construction quality
    January 6, 2017
    MOBA has developed a new temperature scanner system called the PAVE-IR, designed to help operators avoid laying incorrectly heated asphalt. From mixing plant to compaction, getting the temperature of asphalt right is critical. Cold asphalt can lead to road damage, which results in additional costs of up to 46% due shorter surface lifetimes. The new MOBA PAVE-IR aims for an optimum asphalt material mix and the best possible process flow says the manufacturer.
