100th Warrior 2400 mobile screen delivered to Oman

Powerscreen has delivered its 100th Warrior 2400 mobile screen to its Oman distributor General Engineering Services (Genserv). One of Oman’s leading infrastructure companies, Galfar Engineering SAOG, originally requested a scalping plant from Genserv. Galfar required machines capable of providing output capacities ranging from 700-900tonnes/hour and, more importantly, that were mobile as they planned to use them for roads and building projects across Oman.

2991 Powerscreen has delivered its 100th Warrior 2400 mobile screen to its Oman distributor General Engineering Services (Genserv).

One of Oman’s leading infrastructure companies, Galfar Engineering SAOG, originally requested a scalping plant from Genserv. Galfar required machines capable of providing output capacities ranging from 700-900tonnes/hour and, more importantly, that were mobile as they planned to use them for roads and building projects across Oman. Genserv recommended the Warrior 2400 scalping screen and Galfar Engineering ordered two to meet its job requirements. When production began, the customer was said by Powerscreen to be so satisfied with its capabilities that they expanded their fleet to include four more units, including the 100th Warrior 2400 production model. All six machines are now working at the Al Batinah Expressway road project (Phase 1 - 45km), where high quality sub-base is being produced from feed material of a nearby wadi (river bed). The customer said, “We are very happy with the performance of our plant - each machine is working for up to 20 hours per day and producing high volumes of material. We find that the machines offer a low operating cost per tonne and we know that we can count on high speed local support from Genserv when we need it.” The Warrior 2400 screens are configured with a 15cm punch plate on the top deck and with a 6.3cm aperture mesh on the bottom deck, giving three end products.

The -6.3cm fines are used for base rock for road projects. The mid-size material (+6.3cm to -15cm) is crushed through a wheeled 1222 Terex cone crusher and a legacy Terex Pegson 4242SR impactor and sized below 6.3cm using the attached post-screen. Finally, the +15cm over-sized material is crushed using a jaw, cone and VSI range of crushers working in combination with various screens to make different sized aggregates and manufactured sand. In some instances, the screened oversized material is also used for road pitching work.
