RELIABLE PERFORMANCE IN DEMANDING ENVIRONMENTS.

Recycling is the process of converting waste materials into new materials and objects. The recovery of energy from waste materials is often included in this concept.

Recycling is a fast-changing business, with widely varying materials and unforgiving conditions. A lack of industry expertise and excessive downtime are common challenges facing the industry.

We offer a wide range of solutions for heavy engineering projects and extensive expertise in applications engineering, providing a unique service to help you optimize performance and productivity.

WE MOVE.

Hydraulics for the recycling industry

Hydraulics for the recycling industry

With the constantly growing importance of recycling, the demands on the hydraulics used in it are also increasing. Scrap shears, shredders and channel balers should not only be powerful and reliable – they should be quiet and cost-effective too. In order to achieve this, they must offer performance, robustness and the precision of hydraulic systems. And if you really want to be successful, the solutions from Bosch Rexroth are the perfect choice. After all, you can take advantage of the benefits of Bosch Rexroth hydraulics over the entire product life cycle.

Autoclaves

Autoclaves

The high controllability of our drive solutions lets you stop your autoclave in a specific and balanced position. This lets you engage a shot bolt to hold the drum steady during loading and unloading. Afterwards, the 100% load sharing and high starting torque get the autoclave going – regardless of the load conditions.

Digester drums

Digester drums

High starting torque and 100% load-sharing characteristics ensure smooth and reliable processing, even when your digester is heavily loaded. Though they take up little space and add little weight, our drive solutions give you precise and versatile control.

Infeed conveyors

Infeed conveyors

Modern gearboxes in wind turbines put significant demands on the oil quality. Yet despite their high efficiency, they create energy losses that are released in the form of heat and have to be dissipated. Both requirements are perfectly mastered by the pump filter units from Bosch Rexroth.

Infeed rolls

Infeed rolls

Working slowly or quickly, forwards or backwards, our drive solutions ensure a secure feed to your mill. Their controls are simple yet highly responsive, making it easy for you to change speed or direction. Even at very low speeds, you can operate indefinitely at very high torque.

Scrap shears and baling presses

Scrap shears and baling presses

Efficient baling and cutting requires both power and precision. Our powerful system solutions give you excellent control that makes it easy to adapt to varying materials. Large flows can be switched quickly and without shocks, and built-in shock load protection safeguards your machine when cutting.

Shredders

Shredders

If there is one thing we know, it is how to get things moving. Whether you need ripping and crunching, or feeding and shredding, we have the solutions – regardless of technology or environment. Slow or fast, backwards or forwards doesn’t really matter. With our powerful and flexible system solutions you get reliable throughput customized to your needs – solutions that enable you to optimize your performance.

YOU WIN.

Efficiency

Efficiency

For efficient baling and cutting of tough materials, power and precision are essential. With Bosch Rexroth you get rugged and reliable power combined with great controllability that makes it easy to adapt to the many different materials handled every day – advantages that enable you to maximize throughput and optimize production.

Power

Power

For the demanding everyday tasks in the recycling business, we know all about providing the power to do the job efficiently, while bringing great control to help optimize production flow and providing a safe solution for machinery and personnel.

Safety

Safety

For your personnel, the fine-tuned control means added safety. And for your business, it means opportunities to maximize throughput and optimize production. Though they take up little space and add little weight to your machines, our system solutions mean sizeable advantages.

CASE STUDIES.

Hägglunds drives

Hägglunds drives help Genan keep rubber out of landfills and in productive use.

Our Hägglunds hydraulic direct drives have been an integral component of Genan’s work since the first Genan plant opened in Viborg, Denmark in 1990. With their built-in resistance to shock lock loads and their ability to start, stop and reverse as many times as needed, our systems were a logical choice for machines like tire shredders.

Hägglunds drives are used across all Genan’s plants. In total Genan now has six plants world-wide. Genan expanded first to Berlin in 2003 and later to two other German cities, Dorsten and Kammlach. Texas, US,became Genan’s first non-European site in 2014, and operations in Portugal were recently added, bringing the combined intake capacity of nearly 400,000 metric tons per year.
