The QE241 sits at the compact end of Sandvik’s heavy-duty scalper range.
 
It’s built specifically for operators who need serious screening performance without a large operating footprint.
 
Despite its smaller size, it carries the biggest screen box in its class. The heavy-duty twin-deck screen measures 3.35 x 1.24 m and is rated up to 350 mtph. 
 
Setup is fast, hydraulically folding conveyors get you running quickly, and the jack-up facility makes maintenance straightforward on site. Two-speed tracking means faster relocation between jobs, and the push-button sequential start-up keeps daily operation simple.
 
The QE241 is compact to transport, quick to deploy, and difficult to outgrow.
 
If this sounds like the next addition to your fleet, contact us today.

Sandvik Crushers and screeners may be similar in appearance. But they serve different purposes on site.
 
A crusher reduces material size. Rock, ore, or demolition waste goes in large, comes out smaller. Through compression, impact, or attrition depending on the particular model.
 
A screener separates material that’s already been sized, sorting by particle size using vibrating mesh or grids, splitting a mixed feed into fractions. No size reduction happens, just classification.
 
In practice they work in sequence. Crush first, screen after. Sometimes screen before crushing too, to remove fines that don’t need processing and protect the crusher from unnecessary wear.

Every machine in the Sandvik screening range is designed with a specific application in mind and the QA452 is built for operations that need maximum versatility and high-capacity production.
 
As Sandvik’s advanced triple-deck screener, the QA452 stands out for its ability to efficiently process large volumes while producing multiple sized products in a single operation. Its innovative double-screenbox design gives operators added flexibility on demanding sites, making it an excellent choice for large-scale quarrying, aggregates, and recycling projects.
 
What makes the QA452 unique?
• Flexible setup for a wide variety of applications
• Efficient production of multiple end products at once
• Built for high-performance operations without compromising mobility
 
The QA452 complements the wider Sandvik lineup by offering an ideal solution for more complex, high-volume screening requirements.

This week we attended the Sandvik Global Dealer Conference in Belfast.
 
As the official Sandvik distributor for UK and Ireland, being part of the global network in person always puts the scale of what Sandvik is building into perspective.
 
The agenda covered everything from Sandvik Mobile’s strategic direction and aftermarket opportunities, to recycling solutions and real-world quarry case studies - sessions that gave us plenty to bring back to the business.
 
Proud to represent Sandvik across UK and Ireland, and energised by what’s coming.

🦺 This week was Construction Safety Week, an important milestone to raise awareness on construction sites around the country. At Retec Equipment we are proud to have safety built into everything we do.
 
As the country’s only approved distributor of Sandvik equipment, all our crushers, screeners and scalpers are engineered with the operator in mind; reducing risk, minimising fatigue, and keeping crews safer on some of the most demanding sites in the industry.
 
From machine to parts, every stage is about making sure the safeguards stay in place long after the machine first arrives on a site.
 
Let this week serve as a reminder, and every other week a habit.

Space is limited, expectations aren’t.

The Sandvik QI341 mobile impact crusher is engineered for sites where space is tight but product shape and production levels can’t be compromised.

The CI411 Prisec™ runs in both primary and secondary applications, which means one machine, two roles.

Radio-controlled feed opening, adjustable rotor speed, and a PLC control system with colour screen keep the operator in full control.

Overband magnet, pre-screen, and remote control come standard.

Add the optional hanging screen and you’re producing accurately sized material straight off the machine.

More capable than a single-application crusher. The mid-sized impactor that punches above its weight.

When people think of crushing and screening solutions, they think of the machines. 🏗️
 
But what keeps them running is the spare parts.
 
The right part, available at the right time, can often be the difference between an hour’s delay and a full day’s shutdown.
 
We all know that downtime, whether it’s aggregates, mining, or quarrying, means lost tonnes, missed targets, and pressure on margins.
 
That’s why we don’t just supply crushing and screening equipment. We back it up with a comprehensive spares offering, held and ready so your operation doesn’t have to wait.
 
Investing in a machine is one decision. Keeping it performing day after day is an ongoing commitment, and we’re here to support both.
 
If you’re spending time chasing down parts from multiple suppliers, get in touch and let’s talk about how we can simplify that.

Another successful delivery for RETEC Equipment, and another milestone in a valued long-term relationship.

This marks the second machine supplied to Wordsworth Crushing in just three weeks, reinforcing their continued confidence in Sandvik construction equipment.

Wordsworth Crushing, led by Oliver Wordsworth, is a business we’ve maintained a strong relationship with over time, and we’re proud to continue supporting their ongoing operations with reliable equipment solutions.

At Retec Equipment, we supply both new and used Sandvik machinery as for some operations, used may be the more practical and timely choice.

Sourcing high quality, used Sandvik equipment is one of our core offerings, and every unit we supply is thoroughly vetted before it reaches you.

Here are a few reasons why our operations sometimes choose used:
• The application is lower-intensity or temporary
• You have in-house technical expertise to manage maintenance
• You want to test a machine type before committing to new

Sandvik machinery is built to last. That means a well-maintained used unit can deliver years of reliable performance, often at a fraction of the new price. When sourced from the right dealer, buying used can become part of your wider business strategy.

Whether you have something specific in mind or want to explore what’s available, our team is ready to help.

Get in touch today to find out what we have in stock.
