Powerscreen, a provider of mobile crushing and screening equipment, launched the new Warrior 1400X screen.
Damian Power, Powerscreen global product director said: “The new Powerscreen Warrior 1400X offers improved performance, lower operating costs and easier serviceability while building on the reliable foundation of our class-leading Warrior 1400 scalper.”
The 1400X has been designed with economy in mind. With reduced engine running speed and enhanced hydraulics, the 1400X offers a reduction in fuel consumption of up to 15 percent in comparison to its predecessor. This can translate into a substantial financial saving for customers over the lifetime of the machine.
Improved versatility and design specifications are other key achievements of the Warrior 1400X, with the screening angle range widening of 13 to 19 degrees. Standard stockpiling capacity on all conveyors has increased by up to 25 percent. With the chassis riser option and the telescopic side conveyor option, the fines and mid-grade stockpiling capacity is increased to more than double that of a standard Warrior 1400, according to the manufacturer.
Time required for set-up and shutdown is faster than the previous model, which will be of particular benefit to contractors. Serviceability features include a screen box raise function and the ability to raise the collection conveyor. Optimal chute design in conjunction with the new feeder under-tray slide-out feature will minimize any potential spillage and reduce any harmful material build-up around the machine.
The Warrior 1400X now boasts improved mobility with a two speed tracking system as standard. The high speed mode is further enhanced with automatic engine speed ramp-up making the 1400X the fastest tracked machine in its range, according to the manufacturer.
The Warrior 1400X can be fitted with either a Tier III/Stage 3A Caterpillar C4.4 ATAAC — 4 cylinder diesel engine developing 120 hp (90 kW) at 1800 rpm, or a Tier IVi/Stage 3B Caterpillar C4.4 — 4 cylinder diesel engine developing 110 hp (82 kW) at 1800 rpm.
