All the screening, none of the set-up.
The real cost of a screening plant
A stationary or mobile screen needs to be floated in, positioned and set up. It needs a loader or excavator feeding it, often another machine managing stockpiles, and space for conveyors and stockpiles. On a quarry that's fine. On a building site, farm or roadside, it's a lot of cost and footprint for the job.
Head to head
Mobilisation: Plants need transport and set-up; FlipScreen travels with your excavator.
Machines and operators: Plants need feeding; FlipScreen needs one excavator and one operator.
Footprint: Plants need room for conveyors and stockpiles; FlipScreen fits anywhere an excavator works.
Double handling: Plants need material brought to them; FlipScreen screens where material lies and places it where it's needed.
Flexibility: FlipScreen moves between stockpiles and sites quickly.
When a plant still makes sense
Very high tonnage, long-term operations like quarries may still suit a fixed plant. For the huge range of jobs in between, from demolition sites to farms and landscaping, FlipScreen is the smarter, lower-cost option.
