WEIMA presses for volume reduction and dewatering

Recycling instead of hazardous waste
Until now, rejects, production defects and defective batches have had to be disposed of expensively as hazardous waste because the contents are still in the packaging. This is neither environmentally conscious nor economical. Even if the containers are already emptied by hand, this ties up additional personnel, who have to perform a high proportion of manual work. The solution: WEIMA drainage machines of the PUEHLER series.

Full containers or packs can be fed into the press fully automatically. After the packaging or labels have been emptied and compacted, waste streams are separated according to material and can be disposed of properly.

3-in-1: Empty. Separate. Press.
With a PUEHLER press you get the all-inclusive package. Once filled, the machine separates the contents from the packaging in one process step. The packaging itself is compressed. The discs produced are ideally suited for plastic or metal recycling. The contents can be disposed of properly or, if necessary, further processed, e.g. in the rework process.

Superior machine design
Especially for rework applications in food production the prevention of microbial contamination is of central importance. For this reason WEIMA relies on Hygienic Design, which takes into account hygiene-critical specifications for food safety. Thus we rely on machine bodies made of stainless steel, special welding seams to prevent contamination and on a low-maintenance, cleanable overall concept. A fully automatic cleaning system within the machine ensures high machine availability. In addition, we use food-grade oils for rework machines. The machines are HACCP-compliant and can easily be integrated into your Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point (HACCP) concept.

Industry 4.0 ready
At WEIMA you will never get an off-the-shelf machine. Each press delivered is individually configured and handed over to the user as a turnkey, plug-and-play solution. State-of-the-art data interfaces guarantee seamless integration into your production line, so that the machine can be controlled and monitored in fully automatic operation. Another advantage that is only available from WEIMA: As a shredding specialist we also offer upstream and downstream system solutions if required. These include single-shaft and four-shaft shredders, granulators and briquette presses with enormous pressing forces.
