Designed for demanding applications, the M515 is ideal for producing riprap and recovering rock material from clay and other cohesive materials, said MDS.

It will be on show in Crusher Alley, where visitors can see the machine operating in real time.

The latest iteration of the M515 incorporates several design improvements focused on transportability, accessibility and output.

This includes a swing-out engine arrangement and dedicated access platform to simplify maintenance, as well as extended fines and mid-product conveyors for increasing stockpile capacity.

MDS noted that the revised engine positioning also allows the unit to be transported on smaller trailers, reducing haulage requirements.

The M515 features a 4-metre fines drum section and a 1.5-metre mid-product section, with multiple drum configurations available, including interchangeable screen sections or fully welded drums.

The company’s stand will also have the M300 compact, heavy-duty scalping grid on display. Built for challenging materials such as blasted rock and construction and demolition waste, the M300 features a fully hydraulic setup for fast, along with a heavy-duty double-deck grid incorporating a T-Bar cassette top deck and mesh bottom deck.

A 1400-mm wide collection conveyor with variable speed and a 1400-mm wide product conveyor support improved material flow and increased stockpiling capacity, while the compact footprint provides ease of transport and manoeuvrability across sites, according to MDS.

General manager Steven Keenan said, “Having the M515 in operation allows visitors to see how it performs in demanding conditions, while the M300 provides a clear example of how we are responding to customer feedback with practical, next-generation solutions.

“Together, they showcase our focus on durability, performance and continuous product development.”
