Coming soon: Recy cling Technology
plant. And for its process, Smurfit Kappa has
imposed quite special requirements on the
baling press.
Idromec
Italian shear-baler producer Idromec has
developed a piece of software that can be used
as an app on a smartphone or tablet to moni-
tor the status of production and check in real
time if the equipment’s main components are
working correctly.
TOMRA
The latest-generation optical sorter – TOM-
RA’s AUTOSORT 4 – has joined four existing
units at the Toledo Ecopark waste sorting
plant in Spain. The new machine is configured
for paper and cardboard, resulting in a signif-
icant increase in the recovery of these materi-
als, thereby enabling the Ecopark to achieve
its targets. The innovative municipal solid
waste treatment centre serves a population of
more than 650 000 inhabitants, with the capa-
bility to treat 250 000 tonnes of waste per year.
Pallmann
Size-reduction technology specialist Pallmann
of Germany has offered a helping hand to Pro-
tan, the Norway-based manufacturer of PVC
roofing and ventilation tubes for tunnels and
mines. The latter company has been reusing
production left-overs for almost two decades
but, in order to improve its recycling perfor-
mance, it decided to install a state-of-the-art,
three-in-one line for inhouse recycling.
