The basic 518 Trommel – A new entry level screen from Doppstadt

With the Basic 518 trommel screen, Doppstadt has created a solution for small and medium municipal environmental service providers and recycling plants on the market. The innovation has got exactly what is required for a first step into the separation of materials.

For businesses looking for a basic, yet efficient solution for the screening of materials, the Doppstadt product range now includes a machine concentrating on what matters most, but with retrofitting possibilities where required. The Basic 518 separates mixtures of organic substances, garbage and soil into a fine and an oversize fraction. It has been developed for applications in smaller enterprises or recycling plants for the separation of compost, green waste and waste wood or for the separation of sand, gravel and soils in the recovery of construction materials.

The basic model is equipped with high-quality Doppstadt components and is driven by a powerful CAT engine, which complies with Tier 4i emissions. The feeding hopper accommodates four cubic meters of material, which is separated in two fractions and discharged by the rear and front conveyor. The fines are discharged directly to the front side by a long lower conveyor, the oversize is discharged by a rear conveyor, which can be changed from right to left. The compact design facilitates the machine operation and reduces maintenance. For more than the standard equipment, the basic solution can easily be retrofitted to meet present or future requirements.

Transportation of the Basic 518 screen is also easy. The machine is designed for container shipment, it fits in a standardized 40 ft high cube sea freight container and can be transported anywhere by low loader easily, safely and quickly. Just detach the rear conveyor, put it in the trommel and retract the supports.

The Basic 518 is available for order now through Blue Group in the UK
