Triple showing for CAMS

Just like its larger siblings, the Centauro 75.25 is versatile and environmentally friendly. It integrates a shredder, screen and magnetic separator in a single mobile unit designed for on-site operation. It can process challenging or wet materials, is remotely operated via radio control and can be powered by either a hybrid (diesel/electric) or fully electric system.

This specific model features an FPT F36 Stage V diesel engine (105kW) and a MeccAlte alternator (165kVA). As with the rest of the Centauro range, it is compatible with renewable-energy sources, including solar power. It also sports its own distinctive logo, designed by street artist and illustrator burla22. This original artwork expresses the machine’s personality, moving away from standard industrial design to embrace a new style of product communication.

But burla22’s vision extends beyond the equipment itself; it illustrates CAMS’ philosophy, embodied by “The Future is Green”. His dreamlike artwork imagines a world where inert-waste recycling is widespread, raw materials are used more sustainably and nature is reclaimed.

Also exhibited was the Centauro XL 150.69 APR, displayed in a custom livery for a Belgian client. The ‘APR’ stands for Asphalt Pavement Recycler – a reference to its ability to recover 100% of asphalt (milled material and slabs) while preserving the original bitumen content.

Compared to the standard Centauro designed for non-asphalt materials, the APR version features a secondary shredder operating at low speed to disaggregate the material without altering the particle-size distribution. This enables optimal separation of bitumen from aggregates and results in a cleaner, more classifiable end product. High-speed shredders, on the other hand, generate excess filler that can clog filters and reduce material quality.

    An ambitious objective has led to significant steps in the reuse of PA (porous asphalt). While the market incidentally produces PA with a maximum of 30% of recovered raw materials, BAM has introduced its own innovations, enabling more than 90% of raw materials to be reused. And this year, subsidies from the European Commission will enable the LE2AP demonstration project to be constructed: one kilometre of sustainable PA. Large-scale production is also being developed.

    Manufacturers are producing innovative asphalt equipment, and operators are benefiting from this as Patrick Smithreports. Asphalt plant manufacturers and operators are understandably placing great emphasis on higher productivity but with lower costs. At the same time they are aware of environmental issues and the ever-increasing use of recycled material in mixes.

    Ammann is offering its RSS 120-M Shredder, a mobile machine that prepares recycled asphalt for use in an asphalt plant. It is versatile as it can be used as a shredder, iron separator and screener. The machine can recycle asphalt that ranges in size from milled particles to larger pieces. The Ammann RSS 120-M can go from installation to production in just 30 minutes and is track-mounted for mobility. A single operator can run the machine, which comprises a shredder with two low-speed, electrically driven
