This guarantees the best viewing positions of the executed plant functions. All plant functions are started automatically, without each side discharge conveyor having to be activated individually. The machine can also be unfolded via the remote — an industry first, according to Wirtgen. Data on machine operation can be read off at the control panel, while plant movement is without jolts thanks to proportionally activated hydraulic valves. The plant operates particularly efficiently and produces a high output when interlinked with crushing plants of the EVO series, whose size and output are tuned to the EVO screening plants. A further bonus for safe plant operation is the emergency-off function, which, in the case of an interlinked combination of plants, works across all screening and crushing stages. The large engine compartment facilitates maintenance, and other service components are easily accessible via the all-round work platform. The easily accessible screen decks ensure simple screen surface changing and the large number of screen surfaces ensures that there is a suitable surface for every application. n AUGUST 2017 21
