The first commercial Weir modular wheeled plant (WMWP) was on display at the recent Electra Mining Africa exhibition.

The company says the concept is aimed at addressing specific customer needs in the market and that the most relevant and useful aspects of the design are mobility and ease of deployment, features that are particularly significant to contractors who seek to easily move their plants on and between production sites.

“Given that the design of the WMWP concept addresses these specific customer needs, we have seen immediate acceptance in the marketplace. In addition to mobility and ease of deployment, the concept offers the flexibility of a mobile plant and the productivity of a static plant. From an economic point of view, customers can also enjoy the mobility of the plant without the complexity associated with additional maintenance obligations for components such as diesel engines and tracks related to mobile tracked units,” says Weir director: crushing and screening Hakan Karlsson.

The Weir modular cone/screen  WMWSC36-5162 is a combination of a TRIO TC36 cone crusher and a TRIO TIO 5162 double-deck screen on a single trailer. The plant can be operated as a standalone unit or as part of an existing plant. It can also be integrated as a fully mobile solution.

While Weir displayed a cone/screen combination at Electra Mining Africa, the company says that its wheeled plant concept will soon be available in various configurations, starting from primary crushing solutions comprising a hopper, a vibrating grizzly feeder and a jaw crusher to secondary crushing and stations which consist of a vibrating screen and a cone crusher. To combine these solutions, customers can use Weir modular conveyors to configure a plant that is capable of producing aggregates for various end-use requirements. The tonnage range for the WMWP is from 100 t/hr to 350 t/h.
