Terex Washing Systems (TWS) is gearing up to launch the FM Pentium to the North American market at CONEXPO-CON/AGG, March 14 – 18 2023 in Las Vegas, Nevada, at the Terex stand at the outdoor Silver Lot on booth #S5435. The FM Pentium is an innovative and versatile washing solution that has the unique capability to wash one grade of sand and one aggregate on a single chassis. Set to make a big impact in the quarrying and recycling sectors, the FM Pentium is a workhorse with a small footprint and high throughput rate.

TWS Director, Barry McMenamin commented ‘ConExpo is one of the key shows in the North American calendar and is the perfect platform for us to showcase our new innovations and products to what is a crucial market for us. The FM Pentium is a first of its kind as a revolutionary static sand and aggregate washing unit, with its increased production and versatility. The machine combines a collection tank, centrifugal slurry pump, hydrocyclone(s) and a dewatering screen. With a feed rate of up to 150tph of pre-screened material, the FM Pentium can produce up to 120tph washed sand.  TWS staff and distributors are looking forward to meeting with customers to showcase the new FM Pentium as well share information on the rest of our extensive product portfolio.”

Saving time, money and providing a precise end product, the FM Pentium is a must-have for dual purpose washing applications that has a unique twin 12 x 5 screen arrangement producing a washed aggregate and a washed sand. Maximizing time and yield for material passed through a machine is a concern for all quarry operators. Targets are measured in price per ton and subsequently tons per hour (tph) that are processed through a machine.  Utilizing a novel screening method, the FM Pentium washing unit increases the efficiency with which quarries can wash sand and aggregates, being able to wash pre-sized mixed sands and aggregates and discharging two saleable products.

McMenamin added “Normally when washing aggregates, quarry businesses would have to wash sand off as slurry, either treating the sand later or wasting it if they didn’t want to reclaim it. With the FM Pentium, that process can be skipped, as the sand can be washed away from the aggregate and then graded and screened as a separate product. Effectively, for operations that are processing both aggregates and sand, it’s cutting down on time which could be utilized elsewhere.”
