ABOUT BURDETTS

Burdetts Langwarrin facility is one of the largest independents in the Melbounre area and is located minutes of the M11 south east arterial. The site offers an extensive range of sustainable aggregates and sand products, using their state-of-the-art processing plants, and several EDGE machines also supplied by FOCUS enviro. With the increasing demand for the products produced at the Lang Lang and Langwarrin, the company required another mobile screen to increase the efficiency of their operation.

RIGHT CHOICE

The EDGE TRT622 Trommel Screen was an obvious choice for Andrew Burdett, Managing Director of the Burdett Group, since the TRT622 has been specifically designed for operators looking to process large volumes and a variety of high specification final products. Its adjustable drum angle, high screening area and on board remote controlled radial fines stockpile conveyor has enabled the quarry to produce very fines saleable products and significantly increased the site’s production rate.

Despite its size, the EDGE TRT622 can be set up in as little as 30 minutes, as it boasts hydraulic folding conveyors and track mobility. Other key features include; an adjustable drum angle unique to the EDGE trommel screen which allows for continual process during the frequent Melbourne winter down pours when other screens lose efficiency and have to be taken offline.

Reliability -The big factor

Luke Greaves, Quarry Manager at Lang Lang, who was heavily involved in the decision process explains why Burdetts chose another EDGE TRT622, “Reliability of the machine was a big factor in our decision, we know how well the machine works, it is easy for the guys to work on and to set up. It is also incredibly powerful, and we did look at other machines, but they do not match the TRT622 on production or screening efficiency. So, it was an easy decision to stick with EDGE products.”

Luke Greaves also commented on the positive experience he has had with working with FOCUS enviro over the years “I have dealt with FOCUS service and parts department for some time now and they are absolutely great. I deal with John McGuinness, who is always helpful and gets back to me promptly.”

Robbie McKernan, FOCUS enviro managing director commented, “The EDGE TRT622 is perfectly suited to the requirements and objectives of the Burdetts sites. FOCUS enviros long-term relationship with Burdetts has resulted in the firm purchasing several EDGE machines over the last few years, which are an integral part of their business.”
