A prototype of the striking machine was shown at bauma in Munich, Germany (24-30 October 2022). The first full-production, 50m-long, up to 380-plate and 600 t/h machine was subsequently snapped up by a Turkish iron ore mining customer. The Italian company says its innovative machine combines the efficiency of two machines into a single product with exceptional performance, offering faster sludge feeding and cake discharge time.

The patented Twin Freccia Rossa is said to reduce customers’ operating costs and allows production to continue during maintenance times. Featuring a single conveyor belt, feeding point, silo decanter, supporting structure, homogeniser tank, high-pressure 10-16-21-30-bar technology, a protective shell for the oleodynamic unit and piston, and four-point cloth washing, the cutting-edge filter press can be equipped with 25mm to 50mm standard or membrane plates.

“All our customers are asking us for two filter presses in one machine,” said Matec Industries CEO Matteo Goich during bauma 2022. “We started work on Twin Freccia Rossa around a year ago and the customer who will operate the first full-sized version of this new filter press already has one of our washing plants and six of our filter presses.”

Matec plans to open a new office on the US West Coast by the end of 2023, enabling the company to strengthen longstanding dealer relationships and attract new dealers, widening its reach across the North American continent.

The Scottish articulated hauler manufacturer is making its North American tradeshow debut with its RA30 and RA40 machines.

“We cannot wait to give the RA30 and RA40 pride of place on our stand,” says Paul Douglas, managing director of Rokbak. “We’re looking forward to getting as many attendees interacting with what we’ve got lined up as possible, as well as introducing people to our knowledgeable team who are keen to show off our robust and hardworking haulers.”

“Rokbak is seeing huge demand for its RA30 and RA40 articulated haulers in the US,” says Robert Franklin, Rokbak’s director of sales – Americas. “The US is leading articulated hauler demand globally with huge infrastructure spend. There is a lot of construction activity at the moment around house and road building, so we are keen to meet with customers and potential customers at CONEXPO and discuss how the RA30 and RA40 can help with these projects.”

Rokbak will be showcasing its haulers and aftermarket offer alongside fellow Volvo Group companies Volvo Construction Equipment and Volvo Penta.

With sustainability in mind, the Rokbak event booth materials are all recycled or reusable. Two 40ft customised shipping containers, adorned in the recognisable Rokbak aesthetic, will be used for meeting rooms and product information displays. Following the event, these will be shipped back to Motherwell for reuse at future events.

The R5e can process up to 400 tonnes of material per hour and is very mobile and transportable in one piece. The double-deck pre-screen (7'x3') is said to ensure perfect screening. The material can be stockpiled by side conveyors or via the crusher bypass. The impact crusher with an inlet opening of 31" x41" (HxW) is driven by a 200kW electric motor and drives the rotor, with a width of 39" (1.000mm) and a diameter of 50", with an extremely high mass moment of inertia, giving high productivity and stability. The two-deck precision screen, 15'7" x 5', can be placed in a closed circuit.

The R5e has a drop-off engine/gen set which can go either on the machine's chassis or the machine, connected with a power cable. Placing in a less dusty and vibrant environment, it functions as a backup when no connectivity to the grid is available. Connecting several machines to a single drop-off engine/gen set results in huge savings, as there is only one engine/gen set to run and maintain. Maintenance is also safer and easier when the engine is placed at ground level.

The R5e uses, on average, 173kW when powered full electric or around ten gal/hour (40l/h) when driven via the drop-off diesel engine/gen set.
