This automatic system will provide continuous real-time gradation information without stoppage to the conveyor belt.<\/p><p>The ABS is pneumatically operated (90psi air required), and can accommodate belt widths 24\u201d to 60\u201d wide.\u00a0 As a rule of thumb, the cutter width must be 3 times the size of the largest aggregate (eg.6\u201d if top size aggregate is 2\u201d). Complete unit with accessories weighs approximately 1500 pounds and runs on 110 volt, single-phase current.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div
