In order to transport recycables after the first treatment step over long distances economically, these recycables are pressed to bales of different sizes. After transport these bales have to be loosened to supply the recycables to following processing steps. An inappropriate start to the preparation process therefore has a negative effect on the efficiency of the overall process. The Bale Breaker developed by Matthiessen enables economical preparation of recyclable materials and a perfect start for subsequent work processes.

Eff icient and safe solution Matthiessen Bale Breaker BAIV for the reliable loosening of bale material Matthiessen BANIII-DD Bale Breaker with integrated dewiring for more safety at the workplace After dewiring or dewrapping the bale, it is loaded into the feeding bunker by forklift or conveyor belt. This is equipped with a robust speed controlled chain belt. The traverses on the chain belt move the bales with a constant speed forward to the ripping rotor. Work safety has the highest priority today. To release bales from wires is a dangerous step when it needs to be done manually. Safety clothing...

Very often, recycables are collected in bags. Unfortenately, just these bags, whether “yellow“ or “black“, as well as large foils, make a significant irritant for sorting processes in each treatment plant. Frequently, the screen linings and transfer points become clogged - even leading to complete plant shutdowns. In order to prevent this problem, the Matthiessen Oversize “Film” Remover separates the larger parts in the material flow and thus ensures smooth processes. Advantages ■ Output rate for films > DIN A2 > 70 % ■ Excellent recyclable material pre-sorting ■ Individual speed adjustments...

Smaller recycables such as Tetra Packs, bottles, organic substances etc. are conveyed under the rotor to be continued to the next processing step. Larger recycables, such as e.g. films, are pulled over the ripping rotor and drop on a belt behind the rotor, which conveys this material flow to the Oversize “Film” Remover. The Matthiessen Oversize Remover reliably separates films and other larger parts in advance. Oversized parts in the feed material, especially the films of trash bags, often cause clogging and blockages in sorting plants. Not infrequently, this results in a stop of the entire plant....
