Radio control boosts recycling safety
Sennebogen pursues ‘equilibrium principle’
Guided by the aim of developing
a machine that ‘guarantees a
small and uniform shred size
from a two-shaft shredder’, Ital-
ian recycling equipment special-
ist Satrind Spa has devised the
patented CL system.
This counter-blade size-selection set-up
can be retrofi tted to all of the company’s
existing two-shaft shredders.
A focus of the design process was to
ensure that output material has the same
dimensions as that treated by bulkier and
more expensive three- or four-shaft
shredders fitted with selection screens.
Owing to the fact that the CL system has
selection screens positioned beneath the
International recycling technol-
ogy specialist Eriez has expand-
ed its product portfolio by add-
ing Series 7000 Suspended
Electromagnets, which have
been designed to ensure that
damaging tramp iron is removed
from materials conveyed in
heavy burden depths.
When using these magnets, says
Eriez, operators can safely and auto-
matically remove tramp iron from heavy
product flows such as wood or rock
France’s JAY Electronique has
developed a new generation of
radio control solutions for recy-
cling equipment such as iron and
steel scrap presses, chippers,
baling presses and also sorting
machinery.
Acknowledging that it is catering to a
‘challenging market’, the company
states that the new devices enable recy-
cling equipment operators to control
several machines both simply and safe-
ly, and to intervene quickly if necessary.
‘For example, it is possible to control a
scrap press from the loading crane, and
it is also possible to test a conveyor or a
baling press without running around
between the fi xed panel control and
the machine,’ it notes.
JAY adds: ‘As our systems are bi-
directional, it is possible to get an
information feedback from the
equipment, which enables the work-
er to receive real-time information on
working conditions and so avoid any
The 8130 EQ balance material
handler is the newest creation
from German equipment manu-
facturer Sennebogen. In contrast
to conventional hydraulic mate-
rial handling machines, the 8130
EQ is electrically driven and is
claimed to save up to 75% in
energy and running costs.
Owing to its use of the ‘equilibrium prin-
ciple’ via an adjustable counterweight,
the machine remains constantly bal-
anced in any position, with its centre of
gravity staying central. Furthermore, the
counterweight is said to result in mini-
mal energy usage and suffi cient drive
even for long reaches and high loads in
scrap handling and port material han-
dling environments.
‘The whole machine can be controlled
using just two cylinders,’ explains the
manufacturer. Almost ‘no time at all’ is
required to move the EQ which can run
on just 25% of the energy consumed by
similar diesel-powered machinery, it adds.
The 8130 EQ material handler is said to
be suited to unloading goods ‘from ships
blades, the machine can be operated
without residue building up and causing
damage to the screen and bearings,
Satrind explains. The manufacturer goes
on to note that the CL shredder can
handle anything from metal scrap and
plastic bottles to textiles, glass and car
bumpers. It is available in four different
versions of 15 HP, 25 HP, 30 HP and
50HP.

being conveyed on belts, vibratory feed-
ers or chutes.
The CSA-approved, air-cooled, dry-type
electromagnets require no coolant fl uids
and are available in manual and self-
cleaning versions. ‘UL-listed construction
is available on units for use in hazardous
and dusty locations,’ the developer also
observes.
The magnets come with a fi ve-year coil
warranty and are said to reduce power
consumption by up to 50%.
