Edge Innovate introduces new trommel

Northern Ireland-based Edge Innovate unveiled its new TRM516 trommel during its Global Dealer Open Day, Jan. 16, 2015. The mobile trommel is designed for the recycling, composting, construction and demolition industries.

Speaking at the unveiling of the TRM516, Darragh Cullen, Edge Innovate managing director said, “Numerous dealers and customers over the past number of years have expressed interest in a trommel of this size and spec.

Over the past couple of years, such requests have increased. There is a huge market for high performance trommels, the success of our 622 tracked and wheeled trommel is evident of that.”

With numerous screens and drum types available, the TRM516 series provides high flexibility and is the ideal option for end users who are constrained for space, the company says. Design features such as the 16-foot-long drum allow the TR516 to produce top-quality fine materials such as compost, gravel, sand and topsoil with ease, the company claims.

Design features include an overload sensing system. The drum and the feeder work together to prevent overloading using pressure transducer technology, Edge Innovate explains.

One consideration for Edge when designing this machine was the question of the end-fines conveyor type machine versus the side-fines conveyor design, the company notes. For those users that require a 90-degree output conveyor, the radial conveyor can be set to 90 degrees either left or right to offer this feature.

Designed for fuel efficiency and low operating costs, the TRM516 can be transported from site to site, according to the company. The TRM516 has a 16-foot-long drum, four-wheel direct drive system, hydraulic variable speed control drum and feeder conveyor with load sensing controls. Optional oversize and radial fines conveyors are available for higher stockpiling requirements.

The TRM516 is the first product to be revealed by Edge Innovate in 2015 with more new additions to be expected throughout the year, including a track version to be added to the TR516 trommel series, the company says.
