MB Crusher brought the new MB-HDS220 padding bucket to Bauma 2022 1-tonne weight and a load capacity of 0.6 m3 for a versatile and reliable piece of equipment: MB Crusher brought the new MB-HDS220 padding bucket at Bauma 2022, suitable for loaders and skid steer loaders from 4.5 to 11 tons. Practicality, reliability and productivity on site Compact, versatile and extremely manoeuvrable, the new MB Crusher MB-HDS220 padding bucket is designed to make work easier, reduce processing time and save on operating costs. The size of its inlet mouth opening - 2.20 m - facilitates loading by ensuring that the tracks or wheels of the carrier machine remain clean. The inlet is designed to quickly convey material to the rotors. Maintenance is simple - greasing is centralised and done on-site, as with all MB Crusher products. The coupling system is designed to allow maximum freedom of movement of the operating machine. This system allows excellent visibility of the material to be worked on and of the site As with the other HDS models,

Compact device NivoCapa® for precise level measurement for a wide range of applications; used in different liquids, pastes, foams and slurries and can be implemented in all types and shapes of tanks. Capacitance level measurement in tanks Level sensors that work according to the capacitive measuring principle are used in different liquids, pastes, foams and slurries and can be implemented in all types and shapes of tanks, metallic or non-metallic. They have a very high level of precision in both conductive and non-conductive media. If you look at the whole thing in practice, it becomes clear how versatile the capacitive measuring principle is in very different process conditions. Proven technology For a steel-producing plant, a continuous level measurement, which works unaffected by steam or pressure fluctuations within a very small measuring range, was implemented with the NivoCapa® NC 8000 in water for gas cooling. The proven technology with active buildup compensation and a tunable oscillator was a flexible solution for optimizing the manufacturing process. Measurement accuracy One of the top 10 steel producers worldwide was looking for an insensitive

Sinfimasa designed a double auger with screw conveyors and a bucket elevator for a difficult material, consisting of very different fractions. Heterogenous material On this occasion, our client is a waste treatment plant that needed to transport fine particles from a shredding machine. The bulk material to be transported was very heterogenous: it consisted of 60% rubber and plastics, 15% glass, soil and minerals, 10% textiles and wood, 10% paints and oxides, and 5% metals. The material flow was 7 tonnes per hour, with a grain size of 0 to 20 mm, a density of 600 kg/m3, and a moisture content of 10 to 15%. Closed screw conveyors A conveyor belt was difficult to use, as spillage of material would cause an environmental problem. The solution was to design a system of closed screw conveyors that prevent the spillage of product. In addition, it also avoids manpower in the route and possible accidents with rollers and drums of a conveyor belt. Robust and maintenance friendly To ensure efficient extraction from the hopper that stores the material to be processed and to prevent product accumulation, Sinfimasa

We not only measure the level, but also the health of our employees. Measurements with Dr. Pedro Gonzalez On Monday and Tuesday, October 10 and 11, 2022, the UWT annual focus days for health took place again. These started with a lecture on the topic of stress, i.e. its causes and consequences. On the programme this year were measurements with Dr. Pedro Gonzalez: Cardioscan, Bodyscan, and metabolism measurement, whereby a breathing gas analysis is carried out in a few minutes. Cardioscan * ECG * Stress value * Training plan with pulse values Bodyscan * Muscles * Water * Fat Metabolism measurement * How many carbohydrate and how many fat calories does the body need as a basal metabolic rate per day? * How active is the cell metabolism? * How is fat burning optimised? At noon, all UWT members had a healthy lunch.

Goudsmit has recently developed a range of mobile overband magnets. The modularly designed magnets remove iron particles from underlying material streams and are intended for mobile recycling systems. For mobile recycling systems such as shredders, crushers and screens. The magnetic separators are constructed with either Ferrite or Neodymium magnets, with the latter being upgraded from a 2-pole to a 3-pole system. This modified design provides a stronger magnetic field from the same number of magnets. The compact and strong Neodymium 3-pole overband allows iron to rotate more and pulls it loose, even when it is under a pile of material. This ultimately results in a cleaner product and allows more metal to be recovered. Modular construction The recent design of the mobile overband magnets is modular and includes an extra attenuator at the end of the magnet. As mobile crushers have a diverse power supply - electric or hydro - the modular construction offers the user a choice between a hydro drive, gearmotor drive or drummotor drive. The weakening magnet in the new version comes on top of the various working widths, available in 650, 800, 1000, 1200 and 1400 mm.

Easy to install, adaptable, versatile The RG Series Level Sensors have been designed to indicate the presence or absence of bulk materials such as grains, pellets, chemicals, wood chips and other powders. The detection of material is achieved by a rotating paddle. If material impedes the rotation of the paddle, the motor topples of its axis and triggers an alarm. The RG Series has a variety of compatible paddles which offer the ability to detect a wide range of products. The paddles are interchangeable, making the RG Sensors adaptable to different densities of measured materials. The sensors are customizable not only with paddles, but also with extensions and voltages. An easy to install instrument, the RG Series sensors do not require any calibration, maintenance or specific tool for their installation. The sensors are extremely versatile, and can be installed on tanks, hoppers, on walls or roofs of silos, in a vertical, horizontal or oblique position. Durable and reliable, the RG Series Sensors

Metal treatment specialist improves its production capacity using the Finex Separator. The process now only requires one operator instead of two Helping a range of industries to prevent wear and tear to their component parts, Chromin Maastricht BV specializes in chrome diffusion. By using chromium powder, they create a chrome plating layer over the component part, making it resistant to abrasion and adhesion. This is particularly useful for parts such as plungers, bearing bushes and ball valves. To achieve chrome diffusion, the company needs to bake component parts in a heat-resistant container with the chromium powder at temperatures of 800-1000 degrees Celsius. When this process is completed, excess chromium powder usually remains on the component part which previously required a hand sieve to clean the parts. As a better alternative to this time-consuming practice, Chromin integrated a 40” Finex Separator™ into their production line to remove excess powder while allowing it to be recovered for reuse. As well as increasing capacity from 20 to 40 containers per day, the process now only requires
