Manufacturers showcase C&DR equipment at RecyclingAKTIV

The Karlsruhe, Germany-based RecyclingAKTIV trade fair Sept. 5-7 will present

The Karlsruhe, Germany-based RecyclingAKTIV trade fair Sept. 5-7 will present machinery and systems for recycling substances, such as plastic, scrap, metal, wood and biomass. The following are some of the products for wood and rubble recycling that will be on display at the event in Karlsruhe. Shredding and chipping At the wood and biomass special theme area, Austria-based Komptech will present its two shredders: the Axtor 4510 and the new Terminator Type V.

The Axtor is a universal wood shredder that can shred and chip, making it suitable for processing both

wood and green waste. In shredding mode, it uses free-swinging tools to create material for composting. In chipping mode, fixed tools produce biomass fuel for heat plants. The machine can process various materials, from old wood, logs and residual forest wood to bark and green chippings.

The Terminator Type V can be used to process a wide range of materials, such as household and commercial waste, biomass and old wood, the company says.Shredder with permanent magnetThe VZ 950 shredder from Germany-based Arjes has been modified and optimized since its launch last year, the company says. The redesigned machine does away with the cross belt and longitudinal magnets at the discharge. Instead, there is a height-adjustable permanent magnet fitted above the discharge belt that effectively removes ferrous components. This version of the shredder was developed for processing waste, old wood, green cuttings and minerals.

The company will also showcase the VZ 950 Titan. This twin-shaft shredder has 768 horsepower and is capable of processing rootstocks, truck and tractor tires, along with concrete rail sleepers and demolition waste.New motorsGermany-based Doppstadt will present its AK series of mobile shredders. Alongside adjustments for

compliance with EU stage V, all models have been given an extra power boost, Doppstadt says. These are accompanied by a new, fully lowerable rear belt. This gives the user easy access for regular servicing of the flail drum, tools or grinding basket. It also features a cooler control with added cooling power.

Wood processing system Germany-based Hammel Recyclingtechnik and Netherlands-based Stoevelaar Recycling BV will demonstrate a wood processing system live by running a primary crusher, a Morbark 3400 grinder and an Ecostar 7000 disc screener. The crusher preshreds the old wood before it is ground further by the following systems and screened to grains from 10 to 80 millimeters.Additionally, there will be other companies demonstrating their products live three times a day in the wood and biomass special theme area. There will be machinery on show, such as crushers, screens, shredders, feeding units and dust binding systems. Mobile crusher systems for recycling construction materialThe Germany-based partner companies BMD-Baumaschinendienst (BMD) and Schwab will showcase their new RA 900T recycling system. It is the largest tracked jaw crusher in the 24-ton class and features a dual power system, the companies say. The crusher for stone and rubble works as transportation on a three-axle low-loader trailer. It features a touch-screen control, error diagnosis system and digital maintenance protocol memory.

BMD will present its RA 700/7 for crushing rock and old construction material. Its dimensions, weight and weight distribution are coordinated so that it can be transported on a three-axle roll-off tipper.

The Germany-based companies Moerschen and Bau Süddeutsche Baumaschinen Handel will present the compact Moerschen crush-bear J-750 jaw crusher and other similar products. United Kingdom-based Terex Finlay will present the updated version of its J-1160 jaw crusher and conveyor systems.The SBM Remax 200 from Germany-based Kurz Aufbereitungsanlagen (Kurz) will be showcased. This mobile crusher is a compact, electrically driven impact mill that weighs 23 tons and has an infeed of about three feet. It features a discharge chute and a top-mounted motor. Kurz will also showcase the Anaconda DF410 screening machine and its twin-shaft Arjes 250 Evo double jaw breaker, with redesigned shafts and a quick-change system. ScreensScreening systems allow users to process and reuse rubble and natural products that arise during construction. Germany-based BHS Innovationen will present its recycling screens for construction materials. Its machines do not feature any hydraulics, conveyor belts or tracks. BHS says its machines are designed for ease of use and a long service life. The SBR 2 is mainly aimed at recycling businesses using wheel loaders with a shovel volume of around 1,057 gallons, and the SBR 3 is designed for those with around 264 gallons.The SB screening bucket from Germany-based Skancraft can be used to collect material, such as rubble, and separate it into fine, loose and coarse components. It is also suitable for processing soil, and it can separate and loosen wet, heavy and cohesive soils.
