Case studies

In plastics processing today, it’s no longer just about volume. Purity is what matters. That was exactly the customer’s requirement during material separation testing...

Removing metal contaminants from wood chips is, in practice, one of the biggest challenges when processing pallet wood and wood waste. Nails, screws and metal fragments commonly...

In an engineering company where metal is cut, machined and moved every day, metal waste is everywhere. Chips, fragments, pieces of wire, welding residues – not only in the...

In plastic molding, technology reliability is crucial. Every shutdown costs money. Every damaged injection nozzle means unnecessary costs, stress, and lost production. That’s...

In one industrial plant, an unpleasant issue kept recurring over the long term: premature damage to the mechanical seal of the secondary pump. The cause was subtle, yet all...

At a facility focused on wood waste processing, a typical issue arose during pallet shredding – a large amount of metal nails in the shredded material. The pallets were...

In a machining facility, mixed swarf was produced during turning parts made of bronze and cast iron. Although it contained valuable bronze, it ended up as ordinary waste –...

Initial situation

A German family-owned lime plant engaged in limestone mining and lime production faced an issue with metal and rusty particles in a fine dolomite product...

Separation goal:

The aim was to increase the quality of magnetic separation during the processing of legumes and oilseeds. Fe particles larger than 1 µm should be captured...

Filtration objective:
Removal of ferrous particles from 1 micron. Achievement of the maximum product purity.

Solution:
After the application of the magnetic fi lter no ferrous...

Filtration objective:
