Technical Specification
Typical applications include:
- Mixed Food Waste
- Packed food waste
- Unpacked food waste
- Slaughter house waste
- Food waste and Green waste mixed
- Energy Crops
Operating principle: The operating principle of the machine is to accelerate the material within the chamber which results in one material hitting another, thus releasing contents from the packing. This process involves no cutting just acceleration resulting in low operating costs.
The materials can be feed via grab or conveyor into the core machine dependant upon the feedstock; the material is batch processed for just a few seconds and is then emptied from the machine automatically via a discharge door. The packaging and contraries are then removed using a number of specialist systems.
The processed organic fraction due to the action of the machine is completely broken down with maximum surface area thus increasing the yield in the Anaerobic Digesters.

Price range: 150k Euros upwards dependant upon ancillaries and options; annual operating costs for maintenance and consumables (%); less than 1% of the purchase cost.
References: Many in Germany and Austria processing Biomass fractions, 15 QZ’s operating in the UK processing other materials.
Estimated Maintenance cost £/a or % of purchase price: Minimal - the machine was originally designed to process metal fractions so resistant to unshredables etc. Will not be affected by cans etc.
Required service Intervals (monthly or annually): Fill the automatic greasing; check acceleration tools
