When damp soil repeatedly hampered the operational performance of Soil Recycling Co.’s Terex Ecotec Trommel, company CEO, Chris Keay, turned his attention to finding a more effective solution.
Clogged hoppers, frequent cleaning, and excessive downtime were hampering operations. Attempts to resolve the issue with outdated screening technology only made inefficiencies worse.
A tailored solution for wet conditions
Seeking a better approach, Chris connected with Sami Rahman, ALLU’s area sales manager, who recommended the ALLU DN 2-12 with TS 25 Axe blades. A live demonstration, led by Walkers Hammers’ Service Technician Carlo Costanzo, showcased the bucket’s capabilities.
Despite persistent rain leaving the soil waterlogged, the ALLU bucket’s anti-clogging, self-cleaning TS drum setup handled the material efficiently, improving processing flow and reducing the need for constant cleaning. The results were immediate – soil processing capacity increased by 12 per cent per day, significantly cutting downtime and boosting productivity.
Impressed by its performance, Chris decided to rent the bucket for continued use.
Enhancing efficiency with TS 50 blades
To maximise productivity, the team later upgraded to TS 50 blades, designed to break down larger soil clumps more effectively. Walkers Hammers facilitated the blade swap, delivering the bucket back the next day, ready for action.
With the ALLU bucket in operation, Soil Recycling Co. has transformed its screening process – reducing inefficiencies, increasing output, and ensuring optimal performance for sustainable soil recycling.
