Discharge-point dust suppression Dust Control Technology's new DustBoss DB-R Ring is designed specifically for use at conveyor discharge points. The stainless-steel ring is outfitted with a network of atomizing nozzles that deliver millions of 50- to 200-micron droplets per minute, creating a virtual curtain around the material flow to provide simple, focused dust management. The unit is available in five standard sizes ranging from 17 inches to 100 inches in diameter. All sizes can be customized with Variable Particle Sizing technology, which allows customers to specify different droplet size ranges to match specific materials. The number and size of the spay nozzles vary by model. Dust Control Technology | www.dustboss.come High-capacity screening Metso says its new Lokotrack ST2.4 mobile screen achieves high screening capacity and low fuel consumption thanks to its optimized hydraulic design and state-of-the-art control system. The twostage screen can produce three clean endproduct sizes in one process through smart material flow and the use of first-class components. The hydraulic opening of the screen makes servicing — from cleaning to media change — easy and safe. The screen can be equipped with a variety of media, from steel mesh to Trellex rubber and polyurethane, as well as a vibrating apron feeder with grizzlies or finger bars. The screen box size is 5 feet by 12 feet. Metso Minerals Industries, Inc. | www.metso.com Updated jaw Powerscreen improved its X400S jaw crusher by incorporating a fully independent, high-amplitude, hydraulically driven pre-screen with increased drop angle on the bottom deck. The company says the pre-screen removes a large percentage of the fines within the feed material before it enters the jaw chamber, resulting in a cleaner crushed product. The discharge opening from the under chute has been increased from 8 inches to 12-3/4 inches, allowing pre-screened material to bypass the crushing chamber quickly. The side conveyor features an increased width from 24 inches to 26 inches and an improved discharge height of 9 feet, 2 inches.
