cutting mills with force feeding device for max. throughput at size reduction. (PET bottles, plastics bottles, canisters, packing materials, containers,...) TO INCREASE THE THROGHPUT OF A GRANULATOR A SCREW CONVEYOR IS UTILIZED FOR A TECHNICALLY NEUE HERBOLD Maschinen- und Anlagenbau GmbH, D-74889 Sinsheim-Reihen offers a large range of machines and plants for size reduction and recycling of plastics scrap, from production or waste collection. To increase the through-put rate of a granulator used for size reduction of loose, unpressed plastics a force feeding technique was developed. A screw conveyor is utilized for a technically optimized material feed. Via conveyor the material is fed in the feed hopper. The transport to the grinding chamber is now no longer only based on the principle of gravitation - in fact the material is now fed to the grinding chamber by one / or more vertically assembled screws. Depending on the required granulator size the number of screws, the rotation speed as well as the drive capacity can vary. A transport screw equiped with a load-dependent control as well as a frequency converter prevents…

Innovative all-rounder for measuring all types of bulk materials that combines all important features of a reliable measurement technology and is additionally very user-friendly The significance of the gear mechanism is not to be underestimated. Many a “simple” type of component can soon become a problem if it’s not working reliably. In situations where level monitoring is required, costly events such as over filling of the silo can be avoided. Sensors have to be designed with a high degree of compatibility for processes, so that they can be seamlessly integrated into installations ensuring the optimal solution. All-rounder single rod probe We are often asked whether there is one measurement principle, which works reliably in all bulk solids applications? Is there one sensor that can cope with low bulk density, bridging, caking, abrasiveness, corrosion, high tension and leverage forces, high and low process temperatures and pressures, low and fluctuating dielectric value as well as being able to offer a short reaction time? To date, the answer to this question has been “no”, there has not been any one measuring principle to solve…

Brady Corporation’s new M610, M611 and M710 portable label printers offer the speed, versatility and durability to get any labelling job done right, at any time, anywhere. Discover their thousands of printer label options To maximally support users, the new portable printers from Brady offer countless options to design any label - via the onboard keypad, via PC, and via smartphone. These designs can be printed on the widest range of label materials, sizes and colours, fit for any identification job. All 3 printers also immediately recognise every loaded material, they auto-calibrate and warn whenever a label design would need a different label size. Work the way your work demands With Brady’s new high-end portable printing range, users decide how labels are created. Printers have label design wizards installed that can be operated with the on-board keypad, available in all key layouts. Alternatively, labels can be designed with Brady Workstation on PC, stored on the printer, or sent to the printer when needed via Wi-Fi. The new printers’ top feature perhaps is they can all be operated with the user’s smartphone, provided Brady’s free Express Labels Mobile app is installed.…
