New Powerscreen Titan Range packs a big punch

Powerscreen, the world’s leading provider of mobile crushing and screening equipment, has launched its new Titan range, a new range of secondary scalping screens that provide a cost-effective solution in high volume, smaller sized, or recycling applications.

The Titan range, which includes three models—the Titan 600, Titan 1300 and Titan 2300—is a simplification of Powerscreen’s high-performing Warrior range, using key features customers love about the Warrior machines and tailoring them to a different section of the market at an attractive price point.

Sean Loughran, Business Line Director of Powerscreen explains, “As we continue to review the global market, we are seeing a split in the applications in which our Warrior range is being used. While some are screening large sized materials, others are being used as secondary scalpers, such as after a crusher, or in the recycling market—screening topsoil, C&D waste and biomass materials. The Titan range has been specifically designed with the customer, for the customer as a more cost-effective machine to cater for those secondary or recycling screening applications. It has both a range of features and unrivalled performance that will increase the bottom line of any of its owners.”

Titan 1300

The Titan 1300 packs a punch while having a compact footprint for ease of transport. Comprising an extra-large capacity twin drive feeder at the rear of the machine with an 1100mm feeder belt, the feeder comes with hydraulically folding extensions to allow for side loading of the machine, can withstand heavy loads due to having impact bars under the belt in place of impact rollers, and has a folding rear door to allow for maximum versatility.

The highly aggressive screenbox has an impressive total screening area of 10m2 or 13.1yd2. Complete with a variable angle to allow for tailoring of the machine to various applications, the screen also has a lift-up functionality at discharge to ensure quick and efficient mesh changes, of which there is a huge range available as well as other media including punch plate, 3D punch plate and finger screen.

Side conveyors have wide fines belts and excellent stockpiling height to rival any other comparable machine on the market. A single lever set up results in a very quick set up time, and while the side conveyors can be configured as either standard or fully reverse from the factory, they can also be fully configured onsite to allow both conveyors out of the same side of the machine. Each conveyor has its own independent speed control, to tailor each conveyor to its loading. Meanwhile, the Titan 1300’s tail conveyor has the optimum combination of rollers and impact slips for durability while maximising the power draw of the machine, and has a fold to minimise transport length, fitting onto the smallest of European trailers.

Titan 2300

The Titan 2300 is a completely new machine to Powerscreen in terms of concept and design, encompassing the largest belt feeder in any of the Powerscreen range at 1500mm (60”), with twin gear box drive and a combination of impact bars and impact rollers for optimum power usage. It also has the steepest hopper ever designed by Powerscreen to enable ease of emptying without bridging, with an eye specifically on the recycling market. The body of the hopper is manufactured with wear resistant steel and a rear folding door to take a crusher feed. A low speed feeder is fitted as standard, with a medium speed option for low density material which, while sacrificing some torque, can run at up to 50% faster than standard.

As with all Powerscreen screens, the heart of the machine is within the screenbox itself. Neil Robinson, Product and Applications Manager, Powerscreen explains, “Using our expertise gained from our last few projects such as the Warrior 2100, the Chieftain 2200 and the Chieftain 1700X, together with a mix of computer based design and analysis and real world testing, we have crafted a screenbox that will match and exceed any similar sized single shaft screen in the market. Using a high specification drive, the machine is able to take on a wide range of applications from smaller direct feeder, secondary feed after a crusher to light weight recycling market.”

The machine also has an adjustable screen angle, with media options include mesh (both woven and welded), punch plate, 3D punch plate, finger screens and finger and punch plate combination. Finally, the Titan 2300 has full access walkways down both sides of the screenbox, uniquely designed to be fully regulatory compliant.

Hybrid Dual Power is also available on the Titan 2300, being powered using standard diesel or connected to an external electricity supply once the machine has been set-up.

The side conveyors are standardised at 1050mm (42”) plain belts, with chevron belts also available if required. With a generous stockpiling height, the plant is fully customisable both in the field and from the factory with conveyors that can be reversed, can be discharged on the same side, or can be converted to a two-way split. To cater for the recycling market, there is an option for magnetic head drums on all three conveyors to carry the metallic material back down the conveyor and away from the stockpile. The tail conveyor features a 1600mm chevron belt, the widest in the Powerscreen range, with a combination of impact slips and rollers as standard to remove the need for full length skirting and reduce the power draw of the conveyor.

Similar to the Titan 1300, the large tracks of the Titan 2300 ensure a stable working platform but has a high tracking speed to allow highest versatility onsite.

Testing

Both the Titan 1300 and Titan 2300 have undergone rigorous testing in various applications to ensure that they excel in every job it is placed in. The Titan 1300 has worked on a sand and gravel application in Germany, while the Titan 2300 has surpassed expectations in various quarries throughout Ireland as well as in a biomass application. Sean Keenan, Applications Training Manger said, “Overall it’s fair to say that our customers have seen the Titan machines enabling them to process higher volume of quality material when compared to their previous units.”
