Concrete Producer, The, May, 2003

Tumble Master equipment includes two stone-splitting systems and two paving-stone treatment systems. The TR1 stone manipulator splits and tumbles the stone surface and assembles the treated products to any desired layer configuration automatically, in less than 18 seconds. For high-capacity requirements the company has a TR2 modular system, which can be equipped with one destacker and cuber and treat blocks on the front or front and back side.

The TP4 and TP8 treatment systems handle paving stones from 60-100 mm thick. System capacity for the TP4 is about 10,000-13,000 square feet both sides treated or 20,000-24,000 square feet one side treated. The TP8 has a daily capacity of about 25,000 square feet and has a cycle time of about 10 seconds per layer. HESS Maschinenfabrik GmbH & Co. KG. 49 27-364-9760. www.hess-maschinenfabrik.de. Circle 13.
