In his production chain an American manufacturer will no longer use two machines for screening his plastic granulate, but only one: the Rhewum WAFL with two screen decks. Pavement markings have been used since the beginning of the 20th century. Today they are part of the modern street scene and without them we would sometimes lose orientation. The line markings create a clear and safe traffic guidance. The products of the world’s leading North Carolina-based manufacturer are not only used on roads and highways, but also on taxiways, take-off and landing runways, parking lots, intersections and in all types of commercial, construction, government, industrial and architectural environments. So these markings help drivers, pilots and pedestrians to move safely in the right direction. The exact process of producing road markings will not be discussed in detail at this point, as it is quite complex. However, plastic granulate is processed in the production of road markings, that must be dewatered. With the help of the Rhewum WAFL the water can be perfectly separated from the product and a low residual moisture of approx. 8 percent can

Strenghening of international service and distribution network Lindner has been doing business in Asia for over 20 years now. In recent years in particular, a greater awareness of the need to manage resources responsibly and, above all, to recover waste materials, has grown in the world’s most densely populated region. The Asia-Pacific region has become one of the largest growth markets in the waste management sector. Lindner Recyclingtech, one of the world’s leading suppliers of shredding technology and system solutions for recycling, is now strengthening its presence in the region with its new subsidiary in Singapore, thereby expanding its international service and distribution network. ’We already have very strong partners with whom we successfully implemented numerous projects in countries such as China, Japan, Korea, Thailand, Malaysia, the Philippines and also Australia. With the new service and sales hub in Singapore, we’ve created a point of contact for partners and clients to better respond to individual local

Rough Tools for Fine Particles When it comes to hiring first-class machines, you should head to Oud-Alblas in the Netherlands, about 25 km from Rotterdam. That’s where the Tuytel Group is based and where it has been renting out heavy construction machinery as well as offering transport solutions and recycling machines in the Netherlands and all across Europe since 1999. In the matter of machines for processing waste wood, the company relies on Lindner‘s robust solutions, supplied and supported by Dutch sales partner Van der Spek Vianen B.V. At the beginning of 2020, a system solution consisting of the Urraco 95DK shredder and a Zeta Star 95DK star screen was added to a fleet that has been home to two mobile twin-shaft shredders of the Urraco 75 series for quite some time. ‘As a heavy equipment rental company we focus specifically on premium machines from top European brands. We have to offer our clients solutions with maximum reliability and the lowest possible maintenance costs,’ explains

"TENAX specializes in high-end plastics and services that create customer and corporate value" is the company’s mission statement and vision. TENAX is an International Group and Global Supplier with two manufacturing sites in the US (Maryland & Alabama), a distribution centre in California and 280 employees worldwide. For over 60 years, TENAX has provided specialty products for netting and fencing, pipe protection, construction, agricultural, gardening and DIY applications. The Facts TENAX was looking for a reliable and efficient baler to dispose of extruded fence nets and grids. The new baler would replace their highly inefficient baler which was prone to failures and had expensive repairs looming. They turned to the US subsidiary of the German manufacturer HSM GmbH + Co. KG for the solution to their problem. Established in 1960 in Italy, TENAX has seen steady production growth and continued success in many markets. Today, with production facilities in the US

Simple and reliable measurement technology by UWT A level limit sensor has to cope with low bulk density, bridging, caking, abrasiveness, corrosion, leverage forces, high and low process temperatures, electrostatic charging and so on. Rotating level limit switches of UWT have been designed to meet these challenges of different industry sectors and cover various changing approaches, also within extraordinary applications. The rotating paddle switch can be used as full, demand or empty detectors in silos or containers. The trusted, multifunctional and maintenance free unit for level monitoring of bulk goods is versatile and has a modular design. With its simple electromechanical measuring principle it can also be adapted for extreme process conditions. A motor driven shaft causes the vane to rotate. Once the material level reaches the vane, thereby preventing further rotation, this creates a torque, which is converted via a switch to an electric signal. When the vane is free again of the material, the output signal

Secure full detection of xylene by side mounting of the level switch Capanivo® with 1-inch stainless steel process connection in a 3" MS pipe. Level indicators working with the capacitive measurement principle can be used in all types and shapes of tanks, regardless of whether these are metallic or non-metallic. Due to their high sensitivity, their compactness and the range of probes, they are suitable for a wide variety of industrial process requirements. In order to coordinate a constant flow of material, timed to match the manufacturing process, the plant manager of a huge paints corporation was looking for a robust and compact level monitoring system for xylene tanks. Due a special installation situation a creative solution was required. PPS probe with 1-inch process connection Chemical resistance & compact design An Indian multinational paint company headquartered in Mumbai was looking after a solution to detect the level of xylene within several process tanks. Xylene is a common component of ink and solvent of paints and varnishes and is used by conservators of art objects. The company is considered
