Terex Finlay rolled out the first production unit of its fourth generation 883+ heavy duty screener this month, which was built at the state-of-the-art Terex Materials Processing facility in Hosur in July 2020. The Hosur facility currently manufactures Terex Finlay crushers and screens and has a strong manufacturing presence in India for many years now. Viraj Parthi, General Manager, Terex Finlay says, “our focus has always been on ‘Make in India’ solutions and the NEW Terex® Finlay 883+ is highly versatile and adaptable machine suitable for working in quarrying, mining, construction & demolition waste, topsoil, recycling, sand, gravel, coal and aggregate applications. It is designed to work after a primary crusher or on its own as Raw material screening machine.”

The plant has the capacity to process at a rate of up to 600 tonnes per hour and can be fed either by a tracked mobile crusher, Loader or an excavator. This aggressive forward facing inclined modular configuration screenbox has a 4.8m x 1.5m top deck and a 4.8m x 1.5m bottom deck giving a total screening area of 14.4m2 (155ft2). Depending on the working application of the machine hydraulic adjustment can be used to vary the angle of the screen box between 13 – 19°. The top deck of screenbox can be fitted with a variety of screening media including; Tines, Bofor bars, Punch plate and Wire mesh. The bottom deck can be fitted with mesh or cascade fingers.

A high torque drive steel pan apron feeder is fitted to the machine as standard and has proven performance and versatility in demanding and varied working environments. The hopper has a 7m³ capacity as standard with a drop rear door for use in conjunction with a mobile crusher.

The machine is equipped with three hydraulically folding discharge conveyors allowing for maximum stockpiling capacity and associated benefits of rapid set up and tear down times.

Additional features of the machine include; galvanized access ladders and catwalks fitted as standard to both sides of the screen box. Hydraulic raising of the screenbox discharge end provides additional clearance for screenbox and fines transfer conveyor maintenance.

Key Features:

• The banana profile and increased area of the new bottom deck maximizes screening of fines material.

• Modular configuration screen box with 4.8m x 1.5m (16’ x 5’) top deck and 4.8m x 1.5m (16’ x 5’) bottom deck screen.

• Aggressive screen box can accept bofor bars, speedharps, woven mesh, punch plate, tines and cascade fingers.

• Screen box angle can be hydraulically adjusted to an angle between 13º to 19º.

• Screen box discharge end can be hydraulically raised 500mm to facilitate efficient and easy media access and changing.
