This Time with a Tracked Chassis As early as 2017, Linz ag was one of the first clients to start up the then brand-new Lindner Miura 1500 at the waste treatment facility in Linz’s Gaisbergerstrasse. The Miura’s high performance and quality was so impressive, it soon led to another order for a mobile primary shredder. Now, once again, Linz ag opted for Lindner Recyclingtech and the Miura 1500 shredder – this time the recently launched DK version with crawler tracks. With over 3,000 people working for the Austrian company, Linz ag is one of the largest multi-utility providers in this industrial region along the River Danube. LINZ AG`s tasks include the supply of energy and drinking water, the provision of telecommunications solutions, public transport and the management of wastewater and waste. The company has been relying on Lindner’s equipment for its waste management since 2010. What began with several of Lindner’s secondary shredders from the Komet series has now grown into a complete

The specialist in waste processing and shredding technology, founded in Austria in 1948, celebrated the groundbreaking ceremony for its new factory premises on 18 September 2020. Strengthened by the successes of recent years and its solid corporate management, the company is investing in a new site covering over 45,000 square metres. In addition to a state-of-the-art manufacturing facility, the new headquarters will become an international Centre of Excellence for waste recovery and recycling – in keeping with the circular economy concept. When the Lindner machine factory opened its doors in the 1940s, the company manufactured sawmill equipment. The big transformation happened in the late 80s and the company was one of the first started to delve into shredding and waste processing – Lindner Recyclingtech was born. Today, 72 years later, recycling and the sustainable use of resources are among the pressing issues of our time and the Spittal-based family business

At the beginning of September two employees of Rhewum gmbH headed east to introduce RHEWUM screening machines to potential customers and those interested. The trip took them from RHEWUM’s headquarter in Remscheid to Freiberg in the Free State of Saxony which is located 545 kilometers away. The first destination was the Technical University “Bergakademie Freiberg”. During their visit our employees met with heads of institutes and PhD students for networking and a live presentation on our demo screening machine. Afterwards, plans for future cooperation were discussed during a shared barbecue. Consequently, RHEWUM will stay in contact with the TU Bergakademie Freiberg in order to realize future joint projects and to benefit from an intensive bilateral knowledge transfer of theory and industrial practice in the field of mechanical process engineering. The journey continued from Freiberg to Lutherstadt Wittenberg. Apart from being famous for its probably most prominent

PPSChemical resistance & compact design with the probe with 1-inch process connection 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. A well-known manufacturer of aluminum sulfate in Peru was looking for a compact level measurement for its raw material tanks with 98% sulfuric acid. Due to the strong corrosion caused by the acidic material, the decision was made to implement the robust capacity indicator Capanivo® CN 7000 from UWT GmbH. PPS probe with 1-inch process connection Chemical resistance & compact design Sulfuric acid is extracted from sulfur in a number of ways and is one of the most dangerous acids known in the world. The colorless and odorless chemical is viscous, water-soluble, hygroscopic and hardly corrosive. Due to its properties, sulfuric acid is used in a large number

Direct excited screening machines from RHEWUM for sugar industry A well-known European sugar producer was looking for new screening machines to replace his worn-out sizers. Since not only the old machines but also the building were affected, the new sifters should transfer as few vibrations as possible into the building and at the same time increase the efficiency of the screening process. So the decision was made for a machine with directly excited screen meshes. The existing sizers were designed for a throughput of 30 tons of refined sugar per hour with 5 separating cuts, whereas the required product quality for the lowest deck with a separating cut of 0.2 mm could not achieve the required product quality. To find a suitable replacement, trials were made in the technical center of RHEWUM, during which process-relevant parameters of the screening machine were determined and also the compliance with the permissible amount of off-spec particles for numerous sugar types was considered and proved. The results of machine types WA and

Effortless screening of lumps with the Rhewum sv-S feeder What to do if the product has lumps so large that they could even damage the screen mesh? Then a pre-screening must be implemented.. With the help of a Rhewum SV-S feeder this is no problem. For the screening of 200 tons of calcium ammonium nitrate (CAN) per hour an internationally operating plant manufacturer will receive a RHEWUM screener type WAU including a SV-S for his end customer from Egypt. SV means "lateral distribution", S stands for "screen". The directly excited screening machine type WAU is designed as a double-decker with separations at 5 mm and 2 mm. To prevent larger lumps from damaging the screen cloth of the WAU or clogging the coarse grain outlet, they are screened in a pre-separation in the SV-S at 15 mm. This reduces the loads on the screening machine while maximizing the service life and optimizing the actual screening process. A further advantage of the SV feeder with screening is the uniform distribution over the entire width of the screen.
