To complement its market-leading ENDURON® range of high pressure grinding rolls (HPGRs), Weir has developed a robust range of crushers and screens under the same premium brand – now further strengthened by its in-house screening media.
“Combined with our renowned service culture and extensive global footprint, this creates a truly unmatched offering,” says JD Singleton, Weir’s Comminution Director for Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA). “In just 15 years, we have evolved from being primarily recognised for our high quality pump solutions to becoming a global leader in the comminution space.”
He notes that Weir’s large ENDURON® Elite double-deck banana screens have been in high demand, and will soon be produced at the company’s Alrode facility south of Johannesburg – where expansions are underway to create a dedicated production bay for this purpose.
“Large vibrating screens are vital to complement large capacity crushing plants and HPGR circuits and our ENDURON Elite range is playing an important role in hard rock mining developments throughout Africa,” he says. The latest orders include a contract with a leading brownfields mining project in Zambia. The first units from Weir’s Alrode plant expansion are expected to start rolling out later this year.
