The Haxemag wobbler feeder prior to delivery to Estonia
VKG Kaevandused OÜ ordered a wobbler feeder and a roll crusher from 229 Hazemag for processing oil shale in the Ojamaa Mine, Estonia.

The wobbler feeder, which is connected upstream of the roll crusher, screens the fines from the feed material (some 1,000tonnes/hour), and the coarse material of approximately 250tonnes/hour is crushed by the roll crusher to reach the desired particle size of 0-125mm.

By using the wobbler feeder as a primary screen, a smaller type of crusher can be used for the subsequent crushing.

The gap of the roll crusher can be infinitely varied using a hydraulic system. In case a contaminant enters the machine, the movably supported roll moves aside hydraulically, lets the contaminant pass and moves back into its preset position.

    Paving machines vary considerably in North America compared with those units used elsewhere. On a worldwide basis, pavers with tamper bar screeds are popular having been developed in Europe and also favoured by Japanese and Chinese firms. But in the US the length of highways to be constructed resulted in a focus on high production pavers, which still continues today. North America and Latin America are key markets for these machines, with Australia being one of the few territories to employ both European an

    GPS machine control for earthworks and concrete paving is helping to fast track construction of an irrigation canal in Turkey - Claire Symes reports. The Turkish economy is expected to flourish as a result of construction of a new irrigation channel currently underway in the east of the country. This canal is benefiting from the latest concrete paving and earthmoving technology and will bring with it prosperity to a deprived area of the country. But the project is already taking the lead in terms of Turkish
