SKAKO has developed a copper recycling feeding system in cooperation with one of their customers. The system is fully automated and consists of a Lift Tipper and a Vibration Feeder that feeds copper material into two separate melting ovens. On a given signal from the FV-feeder, the Lift Tipper fills recyclable material from a container into the feeder. The melting oven has a load cell and is able to signal to the FV-feeder for more material when it reaches a preset minimum weight. The FV-feeder will then move forward towards the oven on its rails and start the material discharge. The FV-feeder has an integrated weighing system and will stop the filling of material when the required amount has been filled into the oven. It will then return to its original position. The FV-feeder is motorized and can feed multiple ovens as it is placed on a rotating table that can turn 90 degrees.

This high-end GKM tumbler screening machine has been specially designed and adapted to meet the requirements of the food and pharmaceutical industries. In order to fit the limited space, GKM Siebtechnik manufactured this double capacity machine. The idea is to split the product into several decks to ensure very high throughput in a small footprint. A drainable design ensures an ideal internal and external high level cleaning process. The machine has an external as well as internal high-grade stainless steel design. The high-quality surface finish is polished and extrapolated to prevent product build-up to meet highest customer requirements. The contamination-free ULTRA-VARIO-SONIC screen cleaning system provides a much more efficient screening action for the ultra-fine cut points. With the GKM tumbler screener in combination with an ultrasonic cleaning even the finest cut point down to 20 microns can be realized. As a result of the cleaning method, the throughput is significantly increased on the same surface area. The patented fully pneumatic Twin System for deck lifting and clamping combined with quick-release…

Instrumentation manufacturer co-develops high-frequency ASICs Tiny, powerful and crucial for quality: ASICs (Application-Specific Integrated Circuits), i.e. integrated circuits developed to meet specific requirements, are the basis for the success of a radar sensor. The start-up milli IC in Karlsruhe specialises in the development of such high-frequency ASICs – and VEGA Grieshaber KG is on board with this venture. A wealth of expertise in millimetre wave and high-frequency technology The two managing directors Esref Turkmen and Alexander Haag as well as KIT professor and advisor Ahmet Cagri Ulusoy, three top experts in the field of millimetre wave and high-frequency technology, have joined forces. VEGA is the fourth partner involved and, as a successful manufacturer of measurement technology for level and pressure, not only contributes a great deal of expertise in this field, but also specific areas of application for the microchips. Helping to shape technological progress As a world market leader, VEGA already has…

Morssinkhof Rymoplast has commissioned NEUE HERBOLD to supply 4 wet grinding systems for processing post consumer packaging The leading Dutch recycler Morssinkhof Rymoplast is building a new plastics recycling plant in Belgium. The plant, which is being built in Lommel in the Belgian province of Limburg, will recycle postconsumer packaging made from polypropylene (PP) and polyethylene (PE-HD). For the washing systems, Morssinkhof-Plastics is relying on the technology of the NEUE HERBOLD Maschinen-u. Anlagenbau GmbH / Sinsheim that has been known and proven for years. NEUE HERBOLD, from Sinsheim, will supply 4 identical wet grinding systems including flotation tanks and cleaning stage. After mechanical drying, a NEUE HERBOLD gravity separator is provided. Each of these processing lines is designed for a throughput of up to 1500 kg/h. The centerpiece of these systems are the NEUE HERBOLD granulators type SM, which are equipped with a special feed hopper type ZB with screw guide. This device guarantees an almost continuous feed of the feed material into the grinding chamber of the granulator.…

At their next appearance on the 9th and 10th of October, the Solids & Recycling-Technik trade fairs in Dortmund will once again present an impressive overall programme. The event will highlight all facets of bulk solids, process and recycling technologies and will once again focus on highly topical issues. ”In autumn, we will be focusing on digitalisation, artificial intelligence, sustainability and process automation, in line with the current pressure in the industry,” emphasises Anna Lena Sandmann, head of event at Easyfairs Deutschland GmbH. Accordingly, the interest is correspondingly high, and due to the high demand, the exhibition space will expand from three to four halls this autumn. It now provides now enough space for the exhibits of the 390 renowned exhibitors and newcomers. Just like the planned topical tours, where visitors can find information on selected topics, the supporting program also reflects the key themes of the fair. In valuable expert lectures, professionals from industry, research, and academia will inform about important aspects and trends in the sectors. Many renowned companies have already announced…
