BLT WORLD SUPPLIES AND SUPPORTS MDS TROMMEL SCREENS AND APRON FEEDERS THROUGHOUT AFRICA

BLT WORLD’s MDS M515 track trommels, with a 30 T hopper capacity, are capable of handling large rocks and efficiently separates difficult and sticky materials, like mud and clay. MDS trommel screens and apron feeders, which have been designed especially for mineral processing and recycling applications, are available throughout Africa from BLT WORLD.

“These flexible systems are used to remove the small fraction – fines – from a waste stream, to make the remaining material easier to handle for the operatives or processing equipment. Trommels are used in the classification of solid waste, treatment of waste water and recovery of valuable minerals from raw materials. They are also used in the screening process of composts and in food industries, trommel screens sort dry foods of different sizes and shapes,” explains Ken Mouritzen, managing director, BLT WORLD.

“The mining sector in Africa has shown particular interest in MDS M515 track trommels, which are capable of handling large rocks and efficiently separate difficult and sticky materials, like mud and clay. This robust trommel, with a 30 T hopper capacity, is able to produce three products concurrently, at an output of over 400 Tons per hour.

“MDS M515 track trommels have an advanced cleaning mechanism that keeps the drum apertures unblocked. These machines are supplied with fold-out stockpiling conveyors and are able to move around a mine and from one site to another. M515 trommels are designed to clean rocks in all weather conditions. By using trommels to remove clay and wet sticky material, crusher and vibratory screen blockages are prevented and this efficiency contributes to increased production.”

BLT WORLD’s MDS M615 static trommels are designed for removing soils and fines from rip rap or blasted rock. These machines have an output capacity between 350 and 500 Tons per hour. The M820 unit is a large, heavy duty rock trommel, capable of screening rock up to 1 m in size, at approximately 750 Tons per hour. This modular machine is available with three or four splits and is suitable for cleaning dirty rock or for screening blasted material.

The static M825 machine, which handles rocks up to 1,5 m in size, is perfect as a primary screener for material direct from a blast. The hopper, with 100 Ton capacity, can be loaded by dump trucks, with an output of 1 250 T per hour. These units are also available with hydraulic rock breakers.

Also in the MDS range are trommels designed for light recycling materials, including compost and wood bark.

MDS trommels can be designed and manufactured to exact specifications and vary in terms of dimensions of the trommel width, diameter and aperture of holes. The size of fines removed by the trommel screen is predetermined by the holes in the trommel drum and varies depending on the operation, waste stream, volume of material and product specifications.

BLT WORLD’s MDS apron feeders, with electric or hydraulic drives, are available as standard units for quarries, aggregates or recycling applications and as heavy-duty machines for mining, ore and coal environments.

MDS trommel screens and apron feeders, which are also available from BLT WORLD on a fully serviced rental basis, are supported by a technical advisory, supply and repair service throughout Africa.
