Our Strautmann briquetting presses have revolutionized counting centers from the very beginning by efficiently reducing the volume of PET bottles and cans. Their advanced technology, seamless integration into operations and contribution to cost savings through reduced transportation requirements underline their indispensable role in this industry.
With the impending introduction of the can deposit in Germany in 2003, our Strautmann briquetting presses came to the fore and proved to be a pioneering solution for counting center operations. These facilities, where PET bottles and cans are devalued, sorted by material and then compacted, underwent a revolution thanks to the advanced technology of our BrikPress briquetting press. Since then, its use has simply become indispensable. The briquetting of the emptied PET bottles and cans by our innovative BrikPress leads to a significant reduction in volume. Thanks to the continuous 24/7 use and the space-saving design of the BrikPress, the machine can be seamlessly integrated into existing operational processes.
It also makes a significant contribution to minimizing the storage capacity required, as the highly compacted briquettes produced take up significantly less space. The material to be compacted is pneumatically transported from the discharge conveyor belt to the appropriate briquetting press for the recyclable material. There, the material is compacted into briquettes. The specially designed “Strautmann chute system” ensures frictionless and effortless movement of the formed briquettes. With the help of a modem connection, the full containers are collected directly by the disposal service providers.
The implementation of our BrikPress has sustainably transformed the work processes of the counting centers and raised them to a new level of efficiency.
