Cde showcases next-gen equipment

Published 5/7, 2023 at 08:16

At ConExpo-Con/Agg Cde presented its next generation of it’s ‘AggMax’ scrubbing and attrition system, ‘Counter Flow Classification Unit’ (CFCU) for density separation, ‘ShearClean’ attrition cells and ‘EvoWash’ sand classification and dewatering plant. The company also unveiled its new P2-168 ‘Infinity’ screen which has been designed specifically for the US market.

Screens are the single biggest point of fatigue in the wash plant setup, but Cde says that the unique construction of its Infinity range makes them fundamentally different from other screens available on the market. With no welds in the sidewalls, a galvanised structure, and a ‘VibroSync’ drive mechanism providing control and even distribution of power, they are designed to offer increased durability and prolonged operational life for advanced screening and dewatering performance. The new P2-168 model is said to deliver all the benefits of the Infinity range to a new scale to support materials producers processing high tonnages. Benefitting from almost 17m2 in surface area, the screen decks are reinforced at the centre point which serves to strengthen the screen and provide the operator with the flexibility to produce up to six in-spec products simultaneously.

Cde director Darren Eastwood says: “The world is changing. Demand for aggregates in our cities is now higher than ever and the supply lines from our quarries are getting further away from where materials are required. Legislation, too, means it’s harder than ever to secure approvals for materials. Sustainability – for both profit and planet – is essential but difficult to achieve. The latest upgrades to our AggMax, CFCU, ShearClean and EvoWash systems – staples of our next generation of recycling solution – represent the very best of Cde engineering excellence. The future of waste recycling is here. We’ve proven the consistency of our technical processes and the profitability of the commercial investment, learning from our success around America and Canada over the past five years. Our suite of products is helping both sand and aggregate processors as well as excavation producers to transform dirt into dollars with more efficiency and less waste than ever before.”

Cde’s AggMax is engineered to operate in the toughest conditions, maximising product yield from the most abrasive of feedstocks thanks to what the company says is the unique spiral alignment of its paddles. Combining feeding, scrubbing, screening and sizing on one chassis, the AggMax is capable of producing a variety of materials at the high processing rates demanded by the US market. Cde’s third generation AggMax 253SR, the latest in the range, has undergone significant improvements to its chassis. Greater modularisation enables operators to integrate additional equipment from across the range in line with future commercial needs. Improved access to pumps and other critical components also allows for easier observation and maintenance, minimising the need for servicing downtime.

CFCU technology has been developed for the effective separation of two materials of differing relative densities. With a variable cut (separation) point, it is said to provide greater control over sand classification providing complete flexibility for the production of various end products and the removal of lightweight contaminants from the fine material fraction. The latest CFCU 300 model is the biggest in the range and includes Cde’s newly developed dart valve, offering improved control of the underflow discharge for a consistent material cut point and optimised throughput.

An all in one sand washing, classification and dewatering system, the EvoWash uses hydrocyclone technology to deliver control of silt cut points and increases product yield. The EvoWash 201 is one of the largest in the Cde range and is designed to process around 200t/h of feed material. ShearClean Attrition Cell technology is said to further enhance the washing process by providing efficient contaminant removal through consistent material scrubbing. It maximises material on material impact to both protect downstream processes from wear and ensure the production of in-spec products. The latest DS120 model is developed for high tonnage operations, offering twice the scrubbing volume as its predecessor, the DS60.
