Soil Recycling Co achieved impressive results by combining the ALLU DN 2-12 TS 25 Axe bucket and Terex Trommel.
Soil Recycling Co.: Transforming Soil into a Sustainable Resource
When faced with the challenge of processing wet, clumped soil that disrupted the performance of their Terex Ecotec Trommel, Chris Keay, Director of Soil Recycling Co., knew a more effective solution was needed. The damp soil caused significant issues, including clogged hoppers and frequent cleaning, leading to downtime and reduced productivity.
Attempts to resolve the problem with outdated screening technology only exacerbated the inefficiencies.
A Tailored Solution for Tough Conditions
Chris was introduced to Sami Rahman, ALLU’s area sales manager, who recommended the ALLU DN 2-12 with TS 25 Axe blades and demonstrated the bucket’s capabilities onsite with Walkers Hammers' Service Technician Carlo Costanzo.
Persistent rain had left the soil waterlogged, but the ALLU bucket’s unique TS drum setup—with anti-clogging, self-cleaning, and optimized flow features—handled the material efficiently.
The results were immediate. The ALLU bucket significantly improved processing, reducing downtime and boosting productivity. Soil processing capacity improved by 12% per day with ALLU’s consistent flow and reduced need to clean the Trommel barrel. Impressed by its performance, Chris decided to rent the bucket for continued use.
Optimizing Performance with TS 50 Blades
To further enhance efficiency, the team upgraded from TS 25 to TS 50 blades, designed for better fragmentation of larger soil clumps. Walkers Hammers facilitated the blade change, delivering the bucket back the next day, ready for action.
With the ALLU bucket, Soil Recycling Co. has not only overcome its soil processing challenges but also enhanced productivity, ensuring the right tools are in place for sustainable soil recycling.
