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.

    In California, in-situ cold recycling with a Wirtgen 3800 CR recycler has proved to be the most economical solution. In the US’s Golden State – California – Wirtgen’s 708kW powerhouse the 3800 CR recycler resurfaced 160km of San José’s main traffic arteries in situ, on-the-spot. The 3800 CR worked with a Vögele VISION 5200-2i tracked paver in a rear-load process. With this method, the 3800 CR travels in reverse, removing the damaged asphalt layers in a down-cut process and transferring the recycled material

    Road sweepings and gully waste could be recycled, diverting it away from landfill reports *Peter Craven. Highway authorities across Europe have been stockpiling millions of tonnes of rock salt and grit which is destined to be spread onto the road network during the winter months in order to keep them clear. But according to Craven, road sweepings and general gully waste provide a ready source of these materials, as well as delivering significant environmental and financial savings.
