Lauderdale, Fla. Dis- tributors came together to learn how Powerscreen is addressing the latest challenges facing their customers, such as the need for higher quality/ more closely spec'd products, pressure on efficiency and operating costs, and environmental pressure for cleaner/ quieter equipment. At the event attendees shared best practices, learning from the Power- screen team and each other, as well as hands-on equipment demonstrations. The event featured seminars and con- ferences, a St. Patrick's Day evening yacht cruise, Everglades airboat adven- ture tour and an extensive demo day display of 19 Powerscreen crushing and screening machines held at the Palm Beach Aggregates quarry site north of Ft. Lauderdale. The open day included an exclusive introduction of seven new machines in operation. The Premiertrak 600 mobile jaw crusher features a high performance 47- x 32-in. (1200- x 820-mm) revers- ible primary jaw. Designed for demoli- tion, hard rock quarrying and mining, it is available as diesel-hydraulic or diesel-electric. Both versions are built for high production with low mainte- nance and running costs. The model demonstrated has diesel direct drive with a Scania DC13 low-speed engine and advanced hydraulics.
