With a modular system from a simple wet granulator to a turnkey industrial washing line Components for the optimization of existing washing plants Wear resistant dry or wet shredders for highly contaminated materials with foreign bodies Optimized drying steps for thin and stretch films >

For the pressed bales of different materials e.g. bottles orpostconsumer plastic waste, Herbold Meckesheim offersdebalers that facilitate the subsequent classification of thematerial and the manual sorting or the mechanical separationof coarse foreign materials via rattle screen or trommel. Debalers for bottles: SZ type with view into the debaling tools Shredder with feeding conveyor and buffer conveyor > Depending on the type of feed material and its degree ofcontamination, Herbold Meckesheim can rely on a range ofhighquality machines designed and developed by Herbold.Our product range of...

Drawing of a pre-washing container with scrape conveyor for removing the dirt fraction > The pre-washing steps of Herbold Meckesheim are superior to every conventional metal separation or detection. However, not only metals are automaticallyseparated with great reliability, but also any other highcontamination. > A high cleaning effect is achieved by the double cross cuttinggeometry of the granulator. By adding water to the cutting chamber, the grinding process creates an intensively washingthrough friction. At the same time, wet granulating avoidsblocking of the screens and protects the...

Compactor unit of a Plastcompactor > With complicated materials such as stretch film or foammaterials a sufficient mechanical and/or thermal drying is notpossible without the use of an enormous amount of energy. Thesolution to this problem is the HV Plastcompactor. By the use offriction between the compactor discs, the material is heated,dried and at the same time compacted. When the material fromPET bottles is compacted, it is crystallized at the same time.With all applications, bulk density and free flowingcharacteristics are greatly improved. > Drawing of a simple mechanical water...
