Impressions of our new premises On Expansion follows change: When the German location of Microtrac, Inc., which covers EMEA, opened its doors back in 2015, it began with a mere staff of two. After three years of existence, Microtrac GmbH now increased its number in personnel from two to ten – time for a change of location! To the beginning of October 2018, Microtrac GmbH moved from Campus Fichtenhain 42 in Krefeld Fichtenhain to Krefeld Fischeln and can now be found on Kimpler Straße 288, directly inside Sirius Business Park.

In the waste wood processing industry, railway sleepers are among the most difficult materials to shred. They are made of very hard wood and often still contain iron screws and plates. When Gojer, Kärntner Entsorgungsdienst GmbH was faced with the challenge of shredding these sleepers, they opted for the Urraco 95 DK mobile twin-shaft shredder from Lindner-Recyclingtech at the end of August 2017. How does the 770 HP mobile machine perform in terms of throughput, energy consumption and efficiency? Gojer looks back on a very positive first year. Over 10,000 metric tonnes of railway sleepers shredded The tracked Lindner mobile twin shaft shredder has already processed more than 24,000 metric tonnes of waste wood, including more than 10,000 metric tonnes of decommissioned railway sleepers. Gojer’s input material is acquired from Austria as well as neighbouring European countries. After shredding, the material is transported to an incineration plant in Austria. The Urraco

INNOVATIVE AND EVEN MORE POWERFUL! Parallel to the launch of the new machines by Swedish demolition robot manufacturer BROKK, its subsidiary DARDA GmbH is presenting three new crusher models. They are designed as a low-noise, yet powerful attachment tool for the new demolition robot series and for mini excavators in the 2.5 to 9-ton class. DARDA is known worldwide as a specialist supplier of smaller concrete crushers. Despite its compact size and with only a mini excavator as carrier, DARDA crushers can easily keep up with the performance of larger and heavier models. The DARDA units are designed for high crushing power and low weight. The CC440, CC480 and CC580 crushers of the new series come in a modern, uniform design and set new standards in terms of ruggedness and performance. ”The focus of the new designs was on an even higher power/performance ratio, a uniform design and even greater ruggedness, as well as new crushing tips for the two larger crushers,” says Engineering and Design Manager

HSM HL 7009 MGB – the compact horizontal baling press for industry The compact horizontal baling press HSM HL 7009 MGB, with a pressing power of 700 kN, is the economical waste disposal solution for industry. It has been designed to empty large refuse containers filled with cardboard or plastic films and which have a capacity of over 1 x 1100 litres or 2 x 240 litres. The baling press is filled using the integrated hydraulic lifting/tilting device which enables a marked reduction in the number of people required to compress the material. Thanks to the large loading aperture, even bulky pieces of cardboard are not a problem. With a cross-section of 1100 x 1100 mm and a bale length of about 1200 mm, the bales weigh up to 600 kilogrammes. The hydraulic sliding door ensures convenient operation and safety for the operator when the bales are removed. The bales have 4-fold horizontal strapping and, thanks to their optimized dimensions and weights, achieve an optimum truck loading – this compact, horizontal counter-plate press is perfectly
