Sandvik Mobile Crushing and Screening has unveiled its new electric tracked crushing and screening train.

\n\n

The new QH443E is Sandvik’s flagship Q-Range electric-driven cone plant. It represents a significant step towards bridging the gap between tracked mobile, wheeled portable and stationary plants by combining electric drives and track mobility on a single platform.

\n\n

The QH443E features an updated tracked platform with a diesel/electric generator-based drivetrain, Optik automation system, My Fleet remote monitoring and the Sandvik CH440 Hydrocone crusher.

\n\n

This advanced cone crusher is known for its versatility and ease of setting adjustment through the Hydroset CSS regulation and protection system, which optimises production and keeps track of liner wear through the CLP (Constant Liner Performance) technology. With a choice of several chambers, throws and settings for a wide range of applications, users can fine-tune their specification and improve capacity.

\n\n

According to Sandvik, running the QH443E via the onboard genset can result in up to 25% fuel savings and a 78% reduction in oil usage compared to previous generations.

\n\n

Combining electric drive technology with tracked mobility, the QH443E is designed with safety, sustainability and total cost of ownership in mind – making it ideal for secondary or tertiary crushing in aggregate production, quarries and mines.

\n\n

Electric tracked train

\n\n

The QH443E electric cone crusher completes Sandvik’s electric train, which includes the UJ443E fully electric jaw crusher (launched in 2023) and the QA452e hybrid triple-deck Doublescreen (launched in 2022).

\n\n

Built on a new fully electric track platform, the Sandvik UJ443E features high-quality components and the latest generation Sandvik CJ412 jaw crusher. It offers up to 25% reduction in fuel consumption and up to 30% increase in throughput compared to previous models. The fully electric track drives also reduce hydraulic oil usage by up to 91%.

\n\n

The Sandvik QA452e Doublescreen technology typically outperforms traditional screens by up to 30%, offering a tailored rock processing solution for mining, quarry and recycling industries. Its hybrid ‘e’ drive allows users to choose the most suitable energy source for their task.

\n\n

Both the UJ443E and QH443E are equipped with an onboard genset and electrically driven components onboard. This setup enables both units to operate either by connecting to an external electricity supply or via the onboard genset using HVO (hydrotreated vegetable oil) or diesel.

\n\n

Using an external supply or grid connection provides further advantages, including significantly lower running costs, extended drivetrain service intervals, reduced refuelling time, minimal onsite emissions and lower noise levels.

\n\n

In addition, the alternator is sized accordingly so that a downstream screening plant could be operated from the plant’s onboard genset, simplifying servicing and maintenance and improving overall fuel consumption whilst also providing up to 20% decrease in fuel consumption compared to running separate units.

\n\n

“Sandvik Mobiles has always been at the forefront of innovation, and completing the development of our tracked electric train marks a significant step towards a more sustainable and cost-effective future for the crushing and screening industry,” said Manny Maloney, president of Sandvik Mobile Crushing and Screening.

\n\n

“This is just the beginning of our commitment to developing solutions that improve the productivity, safety and sustainability of our customers’ operations. With its advanced capabilities, this technology is also particularly well-suited for heavy-duty applications, including large quarries and mining operations, where maximising uptime and reduced environmental impact are critical.”

\n\n

The UJ443E and QA452e are available for order through Sandvik Mobile’s global network of sales areas and distributors. The QH443E will be available in the European market from mid-March and globally later in 2025.

Sandvik delivered a fleet of mobile crushing and screening equipment for a major construction redevelopment in Hong Kong. The project, which is to take place in five stages and will be the largest of its type ever built in the city, involves the relocation of a sewage treatment works to underground caverns to create a more sustainable and environment-friendly alternative.

\n\n

Commissioned in 1982, the Sha Tin Sewage Treatment Works (STSTW) was implemented to provide sewage treatment facilities to a population of 226,000 in Sha Tin and Ma On Shan. Progressively expanding, this now serves about 630,000 people and is the largest secondary sewage treatment works in Hong Kong.

\n\n

To support Hong Kong’s sustainable development, the government decided to actively explore ways of developing new land resources and one option is through the creation of underground caverns. Following a feasibility study on the relocation of the treatment works to caverns, the results confirmed that this was technically and financially viable. Subsequently, investigation and design works for the relocation project commenced in September 2014.

\n\n

The future cavern complex for the relocated works will be the largest of its type ever built in Hong Kong. The relocation will greatly improve the environment of the existing STSTW site and its surroundings, and release about 28 ha of land for other beneficial uses.

\n\n

It will be constructed in stages, starting with site preparation and access tunnel construction; construction of the main caverns; installation of the sewage treatment facilities; and finally, decommissioning and demolition of the existing STSTW. Completion of the whole project is expected by 2031.

\n\n

Mobile crushing and screening train

\n\n

The first stage began in February 2019 and was targeted for completion towards the end of 2022. Discussions relating to the equipment required for the second phase – for which the mobile crushing and screening train was required – were initiated two years prior. Sandvik’s local sales team was already in contact with the customer, Sheung Ying Construction Limited, for drilling and blasting applications. The initial tender was to process the extracted material ROM (run of mine) from the cavern construction. This material was then to be used in different construction projects throughout Hong Kong.

\n\n

Sandvik’s sales team in Hong Kong led the discussions with the customer and succeeded in closing the deal. Mobile equipment was needed rather than stationary, due to the need to move the machinery on site. The models were selected due to the capacity and sizes required by Sheung Ying Construction Limited.

\n\n

First in the line-up is a primary jaw crusher, a UJ440i to reduce the granite down to a manageable feed size which is then fed into a US440i secondary cone crusher. Running the ‘S’ cone after the jaw, enables the jaw to be opened up wider to maintain the high capacity required by the customer.

\n\n

The UJ440i has a large jaw size of 1,200 x 830 mm, which offers great size reduction and consistent performance. Production is maximised through the generous feed opening coupled with a hydraulic close side setting (CSS) that enables rapid changes through push button operation. The jaw also comes complete with a level sensor as standard to maintain optimum material flow in the chamber when crushing. On this particular application, the jaw crusher is fitted with a vibrating grizzly feeder and under-screen for efficient processing.

\n\n

The US440i secondary cone crusher is capable of accepting large feed sizes of up to 500 mm and, similar to the UJ440i, is ideal for heavy-duty applications. With the use of onboard high-level intelligence together with ASRi (Automatic Setting Regulation), which comes as standard, the systems ensure that the plant is running at the highest capacity, whilst minimising downtime by flagging maintenance issues at the earliest opportunity.

\n\n

Versatile equipment

\n\n

From the US440i, the feed is then transferred into a QE442 scalper. The QE442 takes the first cut of the 20 mm fraction size and feeds the +40 mm oversize into the QH441 cone crusher, whilst also screening the sub-base material 20-40 mm as a sub-product. Like the US440i, the QH441 is fitted with the versatile Sandvik Hydrocone crusher. This offers a wide choice of chambers and different settings to allow the machine to be tailored to the specific requirements of the application.

\n\n

Finally, for screening into the desired fractions of 0-5 mm, 5-10 mm, 10-20 mm and 20-28.6 mm, the QH441 feeds into a QA451 Doublescreen. This QA451 features two high-velocity independently adjustable screen boxes which can be fine-tuned to optimise screening accuracy, efficiency and performance.

\n\n

The project has been progressing well and is running ahead of schedule. Satisfied with the performance of the Sandvik equipment and needing to increase capacity, China State – Alchmex Joint Venture, the main contractor working on behalf of Sheun Ying Construction Limited, has placed a repeat order of equipment.

\n\n

The customer’s new line-up will include the same models as the first but with the addition of the new QA452 Doublescreen as opposed to the QA451. This latest development has been designed to provide higher uptime due to easier access for maintenance, quicker set-up and ease of operation, combined with a lower cost of ownership. The QA452 also offers a more sustainable solution with lower emissions, reduced fuel consumption, extended service intervals, optimised hydraulics and less operating noise.

The new QA452 from Sandvik Mobile Crushers and Screens is the latest evolution of the company’s QA Series products and three-deck Doublescreen technology.

\n\n

According to Sandvik, its Doublescreen technology typically outperforms traditional screens by up to 30%, offering a tailored rock processing solution for quarry, recycling and mining industries.

\n\n

This new three-deck tracked mobile plant has an independent screen angle adjustment and hydraulic screen separation. There are two triple deck inline screen boxes with equal size screen decks, each providing 9 cu m of screening area.

\n\n

Screen enhancements include an 11% longer bottom screen deck to extract more fines. With an independent screen angle adjustment, the primary screen can be independently adjusted from the secondary screen, allowing operators to optimise their throughput, screening efficiency and product gradations.

\n\n

The primary screen performs as a fines extractor, whilst the secondary screen performs as a grader. Two processes on one plant, resulting in exceptional flexibility, excellent separation, accurate grading and massive throughput.

\n\n

Sandvik offers hybrid ‘e’ drive with electric plug-in, which enables users to choose the most economical and efficient energy source. The QA452 provides a lower environmental impact due to reduced fuel consumption, and the latest powerpack onboard delivers less operating noise and low emissions.

\n\n

In addition, the hydraulic system has been improved to reduce energy wastage, and its hydraulic oil change intervals have been extended from 2,000 to 4,000 hours, meaning up to 50% less hydraulic oil is consumed over 10,000 hours of machine usage (subject to oil sampling).

\n\n

The primary screen can also be hydraulically separated to gain better access for maintenance and screen media changes. The addition of a new oversize cross conveyor means greater oversize material extraction. This cross conveyor can also be reversed, to allow the plant to function like a two-deck screen with oversize and mid overs discharged together.

\n\n

Each screen deck features end tension screen media using Sandvik’s mesh tensioning system. This leads to faster screen mesh tensioning and removal when users need uptime. Sandvik’s new range of WX rubber media combines the high accuracy of wire screens, but with the durability of rubber offering up to 10x longer wear life and up to 50% faster installation time compared to wire mesh.

\n\n

Furthermore, the QA452 comes with Sandvik’s My Fleet telemetry system and seven-year data subscription as standard. This provides 24/7 fleet management, geo-fencing and remote support. For higher safety, several features have been incorporated to improve operator and onsite protection. Dust suppression spray bars, onboard water pump, safety pull cords and lighting mast are now fitted as standard for extra peace of mind.
