MDS launches durable new machine for the scrap and metal recycling segment
The SCRAPMASTER 400 is designed for screening scrap metal and other tough materials
MDS has introduced the SCRAPMASTER 400, designed specifically to handle metal and other tough material in the scrap and metals recycling industry.
"Up until now, many customers have had to rely on traditional recycling trommels or scalpers for the scrap and metal recycling segment, which often lacked the durability required for processing metals," says Conor Hegarty, general manager of MDS. "MDS identified the need for a machine specifically dedicated to handling the toughest of tasks."
The SCRAPMASTER 400's design builds upon the foundation of the effective M412: a compact, versatile machine for screening a range of materials, from lightweight to hefty demolition waste. After extensive research and consultation with customers and distributors, MDS says it has taken that platform and significantly enhanced it to offer customers who screen scrap metal an efficient and durable solution for their needs.
Designed for heavy-duty scrap processing
The SCRAPMASTER 400 is specially designed to be a reliable and efficient solution for scrap and metals recycling applications.
Features of the SCRAPMASTER 400 include:
- A robust, wear-resistant push feeder, capable of withstanding heavy, abrasive materials.
- A heavy-duty drum frame with a multitude screen options, ranging from 25-150 millimetres (one-to-six-inches).
- An apron style conveyor on the oversize material output, providing next level durability in scrap applications.
- A three-ply, heavy-duty fines belt for maximum durability.
- Auto-reverse functionality on the drum and variable rotation speeds.
"MDS continues to innovate by offering solutions that address industry challenges head-on," adds Conor Hegarty. "MDS products excel in the toughest applications, and we have leveraged our existing heavy-duty technology to produce a machine that improves scrap processing efficiency and reliability. The addition of the SCRAPMASTER 400 to the MDS product range underlines our position as leaders in specialty screening applications."
