Queen of the scalpers, the Sandvik QE441
Sandvik Construction mobile crushers and screens has improved its top-end scalper range with the introduction of the QE441, a refined version of the QE440.

Improvements include updates to the screen box, screen drive and screen media to increase uptime, performance and versatility. Other improvements include upgrades to the apron plate feeder, wear resistant hopper and radio remote controls, all of which are fitted as standard.

For more operator comfort and ease of control, the QE441 includes 325 Sandvik’s sequential start, while two-speed tracking will reduce travel time between job sites.

Sandvik says the QE441 can accept the most robust of infeed material and is now better suited to large quarrying, mining and recycling applications. It can also work as a stand-alone unit feeding a primary crusher.
