Powerscreen Celebrates 50th Anniversary at Hillhead 2016
Powerscreen, one of the world’s leading providers of mobile crushing and screening equipment, is celebrating 50 years in business this year. Established in 1966, Powerscreen has earned and maintained its reputation as one of the biggest and the best in the crushing and screening industry.
To celebrate their success and this landmark anniversary, Powerscreen will launch celebrations at the Hillhead Exhibition, 28th – 30th June 2016 in Buxton, England.
Colin Clements, Global Product Line Director said, “Powerscreen have been providing the crushing and screening industry with high quality, innovative products for 50 years and we are excited to celebrate that success with those who matter – our distributors and customers. By kicking off the celebrations at Hillhead, we will be able to showcase new and revamped equipment with live working demonstrations. We will then continue back in Northern Ireland where it all began. Celebrations will be exceptional and will show Powerscreen for what it is, a global leader with passion and power.”
Powerscreen will be at stand L10 at Hillhead and will showcase an array of existing and newly released products with live demonstrations in the working display area, as well as showcase machines on its booth.
Visitors to the demonstration area will see three machines in action. The new generation Powerscreen® Premiertrak™ 400 jaw crusherwill workindependently, while the Powerscreen® Trakpactor™ 550 impact crusher will feed the Powerscreen® Chieftain™ 2200 3 deck screen.
The Powerscreen stand will also showcase an array of existing and newly released products, including a Powerscreen® Warrior™ 600 screen, Powerscreen® Warrior™ 2100 screen, Powerscreen® Premiertrak™ 300 jaw crusher, Powerscreen® Premiertrak™ 600 pre-screen and a Powerscreen® 1150 Maxtrak™ cone crusher.
Powerscreen will also be displaying the modular screenbox system for the Warrior 2100. With typical mobile screens, the screen box is a fixed component in the machine. The Warrior 2100 has turned that on its head by offering a choice of three screenboxes that can be interchanged as needed. This opens the machine up to an unprecedented number of applications. Each screenbox will be on display at Hillhead, as well as a comprehensive display of screen media available across the Powerscreen range.
These machines and displays will provide visitors with a fantastic overview of the comprehensive Powerscreen product portfolio.
