  • Kenny’s Loggin’ - Snow Clearing for Norie in Elk Bay, 1970s

    In the early 1970s, I was watching T.V. when Dad got a call from Henri Norie. He was worried about the amount of snow on the shop roof in Elk Bay. Dad says get your snow clothes on we’re heading to Elk Bay. We went in my Dad’s Ford F-250 with chains on all four tires, my Uncle came along in his Ford-250. Most of the way once we got off the highway the snow was coming over the hood and covering the windshield. We had to stop and clean it off every so often.

  • How To Select The Right Mobile Screener

    Although all mobile screeners have the same general purpose, each model has unique features. Before selecting the right screener for your project, consider what features will boost your productivity and keep costs low. Also, think about where you’ll be operating the machine and whether you need to control it remotely.

    How To Select The Right Mobile Screener

     

    What Size Do You Need?
    A mobile screener’s primary performance indicator is its screen capacity, measured in tons per hour (TPH). TPH is the mobile screener equivalent of horsepower in cars. The higher the TPH rating, the more materials it can process, which directly translates into profitability.
