We're pleased to share that Wheatway Solutions, manufacturers of Gyru-Star Compact Screening Systems, have officially joined the Open-S Alliance!
The Open-S Alliance is the organisation behind the Open-S standard for automatic excavator quick couplers. Wheatway Solutions are the first British manufacturer to join the organisation.
As a result, Gyru-Star screening buckets will now be available with a dedicated Open-S automatic quick coupler system. This will enable seamless integration with any Open-S machine coupler or tiltrotator.
“We believe that common standards, such as Open-S, are a catalyst for innovation, driving a balance between collaboration and competition that ensures progress across the industry.
Joining Open-S strengthens our ability to provide customers with innovative solutions that promote interoperability and ensure their attachments remain flexible and future-proof in an evolving industry,” says Colin Smith, Wheatway Solutions Managing Director and principal designer.
Wheatway Solutions’ membership in the Open-S Alliance underscores its ongoing mission to deliver practical, forward-thinking solutions that meet the changing needs of operators and contractors across the globe.
More details on the automatic quick couplers for Gyru-Star screening buckets will be available shortly. In the meantime, please contact us for more information.
