Versatility is key for new Finlay scalping screen

MOBILE crushing and screening specialist Finlay has announced the launch of the new 890 heavy duty two-deck scalping screener.

The model boasts a variety of screen box media options and a variable screen angle. The Finlay 890 can process a high tonnage throughput of up to 700 tph, depending on mesh sizes and material type.

Finlay explained that the ‘aggressive’ screen box is engineered to deliver a ‘high-quality’ screened product in secondary screening applications such as aggregates, topsoil, construction and demolition waste, biomass, compost materials, overburden, foundry waste and processed ores and minerals. It has a modular configuration with a 6.1m x 1.8m top deck and 5.6m x 1.8m bottom deck screen.

Media options include abrasion-resistant punched plate, bofor bars, tines, and a selection of heavy-duty mesh sizes.

The discharge conveyors have individual variable speed controls, meaning operators can tailor speeds for specific applications. There is also the capability to interchange both side conveyors in the field, either on the same or opposite sides. The Finlay 890 model can transition into a two-way split configuration, effectively ejecting oversized materials from both the top and bottom deck.

Finlay added that the fully self-contained plant can be hydraulically folded and ready for transport in less than 30 minutes. The product is available with hybrid technology consisting of on-board electrical motors.

Alan Witherow, product & applications manager at Finlay, said, “We are excited to announce the production of our first 890 scalping screen. The Finlay 890 boasts advanced features and capabilities for operators seeking high-performance screening solutions. Its versatility ensures suitability across a wide range of applications, reinforcing Finlay’s commitment to engineering excellence and our dedication to providing our customers with cutting-edge equipment that meets and exceeds their expectations.”
