Lovejoy to launch new line of
oscillating mounts
The Lovejoy Rosta division introduces an extension of the established Rosta oscillating screen mount family by adding an even more sustainable oscillating mount with broader appeal
Start-up and shutdown are typically the most critical periods in the life of any shaker screen, and its drives Until the screen adjusts to the required working force, excessive oscillations or resonance motions cause unnecessary wear and stress on surrounding structures

Banish rust and corrosion, extend product life
Even a small part can add up to big savings when a critical component lasts longer in a rough environment: banish rust and corrosion and realise cost benefits with the new painted S-Flex flange
This poses a safety concern, and can raise decibel levels above noise regulations.
The new, Rosta AB-HD 50 oscillating mount improves on the rugged characteristics of a heavy-duty mount, making it the best value per pound of capacity on the market.
Advantages of the Rosta AB-HD 50 include:.
* Controlled performance during shutdown: The Rosta oscillating mounts eliminate the need for side-snubbers.
During shutdown and within seconds, the 16 rubber inserts in the Rosta system absorb the remaining energy of the screen box.
The energy-absorbing behaviour of the AB mounts during shutdown eliminates the need for an expensive drive system with electro-magnetic brake systems as well as the need for transportation clamps on mobile screening plants.
* Configuration: The new Rosta AB-HD oscillating mount with its compact design is engineered for heavy free-oscillating screens and shaker conveyors.
The compact design of this component enables it to fit into tight spaces, and is ideal for integration into existing screen systems as an easy replacement for coils or marshmallows.
* Economical: The Rosta AB-HD oscillating mount, in eliminating the need for auxiliary parts such as side-snubbers and arresters, has the best cost/load relation of any system on the market.
The overall operational design is simplified and reduces parts inventory.
Additionally, the Rosta AB-HD 50 oscillating mounts are designed to last, and require absolutely no maintenance.
Lovejoy Rosta offers a complete line of multi-purpose elastomeric elements that can solve most types of tensioning, suspension, and vibration absorption problems in all fields of mechanical engineering.
Rosta products are based on the Rosta Principle: four elastomeric elements are inside the base of every tensioner, suspension unit, oscillating unit, and anti-vibration damper.
The elements transmit the oscillations of a system, while simultaneously dampening vibration, shock, and noise.
