Featuring the first M2500 mobile washing plant installed in France, the unit is run by an electric actuator (less than 200kW) and is capable of outputting four different products at a rate of 200t/h, including 120t/h of sand, to the operator’s great satisfaction.
In Attichy-Bitry, Oise, Antrope, a subsidiary of Eiffage Travaux Publics, operates an alluvial quarry where it extracts sand for the concrete market. To replace a mobile installation which was no longer reaching the required performance level (screen belt conveyor and wheel sand washing machine), the operator has bought a CDE M2500 mobile washing plant. The first to be installed in France, the unit is run by an electric actuator (less than 200kW) and is capable of outputting four different products at a rate of 200t/h, including 120t/h of sand, to the operator’s great satisfaction.
As you leave the village of Bitry, at the eastern end of the department of Oise, there’s an alluvial sand quarry, operated by Antrope, in the Aisne valley, from which sand is extracted. Unusable in its original state, the sand has to be washed and screened. For 6 years, the operator had been using a screening belt conveyor but “its production was limited to 50t/h and the sand wasn’t processed well enough or dried sufficiently”, says Samuel Wendel, head of operations at Antrope. So he went to his equipment supplier, who told him about the M2500 washing plant from the Irish company CDE. After seeing it in operation in the UK, the first plant was put into operation in France in May. Since then, it hasn’t stopped and the average production rate has reached almost 120t/h.
