Ls 1203

Mobile screening plant

The Ls 1203 is a very versatile screening plant with a powerful feeding unit. It will boost your productivity wether you use it in the quarry or for sand or recycling. Crushed material can be separated down to 8 mm, but feeding a 0-250 mm is no problem either. Because of the powerful stroke all kinds of difficult materials are able to be processed as well. Electric drive for economical and sustainable production.

Questions & Answers

What is the advantage of the Ls 1203?

The Ls 1203 has three decks and produces four fractions in one pass. It is robust and reliable, with user-friendly and safe solutions. It is very versatile and energy-efficient.  

How large is the screening area?

The Ls 1203 has an STE 3-67 screen box with three decks and a screening area of 1.4 × 4.8 m. It is four-bearing with a 12 mm stroke, 11° inclination and Vibroblock, and can screen 0–2 mm out of crushed asphalt and concrete.

Which feeder does the Ls 1203 have?

The Ls 1203 has a belt feeder under an 8 m³ hopper. The reject grid is self-cleansing, tips hydraulically 90° and has adjustable bar spacing. The feed-in height is 3.2 m, which makes the machine easy to feed with a wheel loader.

Is the Ls 1203 available with a vibrating feeder?

Yes. The Ls 1203 R is our Recycling Edition with a powerful vibrating feeder. Otherwise it is the same as the Ls 1203.

How do you access the meshes?

The feeding conveyor can be raised for a full view of the upper deck. The chutes slide out for better access at the front, and the screen box has covered inspection panels in the sides. A ball deck can be fitted to the lower deck as an option.

How is the machine transported?

The Ls 1203 sits on a heavy-duty road trailer with twin suspended, braking axles. Transport dimensions are 17.3 × 3.0 × 4.2 m and the weight is about 28 tonnes. Set-up takes about 10 minutes.

How much energy does the machine use?

On mains power the Ls 1203 draws 24 kW. With a diesel generator (option), consumption is 4.5 l/h. The generator sits on a separate frame that can be placed away from the dust.

What is the difference between a vibrating screen and a trommel?

Vibrating screen (Ls series) Trommel
Fractions per pass 3 (Ls 1202) or 4 (Ls 1203) Usually 2–3
Fine cuts, e.g. 0–2 mm Yes, with a clean 2+ fraction Harder, meshes blind more easily
Screening area in use The whole mesh surface works Only the part of the drum where material lies
Capacity Up to 160 t/h in four clean fractions down to 0/2 mm (Ls 1203) Lower per m² of screening area
Mesh changes Quick, with a raisable feeding conveyor and sliding chutes Often take longer
Best use Crushed rock, asphalt, concrete, soil and excavated material Compost, wood chips and organic material

When is a vibrating screen the better choice?

When you want several clean fractions in one pass, fine cuts or high capacity in mineral material. The Ls 1203 produces four fractions in one pass, and both Ls models can screen 0–2 mm out of crushed asphalt and concrete.

Can a vibrating screen handle wet and sticky material as well as a trommel?

With the right screen box movement, yes. The large 12 mm stroke and the shallow 11° inclination break up lumps and give the material a long time on the mesh. A ball deck keeps the meshes clean. The Ls 1202 PD also has a mini shredder that breaks up soil clods before the screen.

When is a trommel a better fit?

Trommels work well on compost, wood chips and other light organic material, where the tumbling helps open up the material and one fraction + surplus is enough. For crushed rock, asphalt, concrete and soil that need several clean fractions, a vibrating screen is usually more efficient. But we have also had very good results with the Ls 1203 in wood chips.

What about operating and energy costs?

The Ls models are electrically driven and draw 22–24 kW on mains power. Always compare the cost per tonne of saleable product, not just consumption per hour. A screen that delivers more clean fractions with less recirculating material gives a lower cost per tonne.

What is the capacity of the Ls 1203 screening plant?

Capacity depends on the material being screened, its moisture content and the final fractions you want to produce. In dry material, the Ls 1203 handles up to around 400 tonnes per hour.

The Ls 1203 is equipped with Maskin Mekano’s proven STE 3-67 screen, which has a screening area of 1.4 × 4.8 metres on three decks. The powerful 12 mm stroke stratifies the material quickly. The low incline of 11° keeps the material on the screen long enough for even fine and short fractions to be separated accurately. As a result, the Ls 1203 has one of the highest capacities per square metre of screening area in the industry, and it maintains that capacity even with damp or sticky material.

Capacity examples when sorting within approved curves (max. 10% oversize / 15% undersize):

Sorting Fractions Capacity
0/11 0/2, 2/4, 4/8, 8/11 approx. 138 t/h
0/16 0/4, 4/8, 8/11, 11/16 approx. 160 t/h
0/16 0/2, 2/4, 4/8, 8/16 approx. 160 t/h

The capacity examples are based on crushed granite. The result in crushed concrete is the same.
