Screen handler for medium bolters

The SH Screen Handler is a hydraulic telescopic boom specially designed for the mechanization of screen installation, along the roof and/or side walls, handled by only one operator from the control station.

  • Description

    Installation of mesh during support installation can be very hazardous if people have to go under the non supported area during the installation process.

    To mitigate this risk, Sandvik has developed the SH Screen handler for DS2710 and DS300 series.

    The SH Screen Handler is a hydraulic telescopic boom specially designed for the mechanization of screen installation, along the roof and/or side walls, handled by only one operator from the control station.

    Not only safety and productivity are increased, but difficult places to reach are now accessible.

    The system is mounted directly on the TUC or SBH bolting head goose neck. The use of the screen manipulator is simple, reliable and easy.

    It can install rigid expanded metal mesh or welded wire mesh screen sheets.
