The event was the biggest year for attendance yet with 704 delegates and exhibitors coming together at the Te Pae Convention Centre in Christchurch.

"The annual event is where the Aggregate & Quarry Association (AQA) and the Institute if Quarrying (IOQ) do a tremendous job in facilitating interaction, socialising, and the sharing of experiences for all those involved in the quarrying industry," says Stevens Group marketing manager Catrina Quinn.

"We’re delighted to have exhibited at this year’s Quarry Conference, to connect with other professionals and businesses and explore new opportunities with potential customers," she says.

Stevens Group is committed to supporting the growth and success of the quarrying and mining industries in New Zealand and says they do so by providing trusted innovative solutions.

"Our double booth incorporated large graphics of ‘Powerscreen & Terex Washing Systems’ equipment working locally (an actual conversation starter), which enabled us to represent an array of latest machinery available from the Stevens Group," says Catrina.

Product focus: Chieftain 1700X (2 and 3 deck)

The Powerscreen Chieftain range of mobile incline screens is designed for the processing of aggregates and sand. The Powerscreen Chieftain 1700 3 Deck allows users to add an additional deck to the 1700 to create a fourth product.

User benefits include a quick set-up time, drop-down tail conveyor, and screen mesh access system to aid screen media changes and a transverse power unit arrangement to simplify servicing.
