Dirk Bruns, Head of our large parts production for Precision parts, and Peter Buhr, Head of QA, are true experts when it comes to manufacturing turned and milled parts with an accuracy of a thousandth of a millimeter.

At this year’s 5th SPALECK Health Day, they showed that they can also score points in sporting competitions and in a health quiz in the AOK competition and prize puzzle.

Dirk Bruns answered all the questions about calcium correctly and, with a bit of luck, was then drawn as the winner of the prize puzzle.

Peter Buhr, on the other hand, came out on top in the ladder golf competition. In a very close and exciting play-off, he managed to place or catch two golf balls connected with a short string on the rungs of the ladder more accurately than his colleague Selmir Celikovic.

Both were presented with a summery prize today. Franz-Josef Fischer from the AOK was delighted and presented the quiz winner with a kettle barbecue and the first-place winner of ladder golf with a set of barbecue tongs.

Dirk Bruns was delighted that the barbecue went to the right person: “I was still missing a kettle barbecue like this in my barbecue collection. I’m already looking forward to my first indirectly grilled roast.”

We wish you a good appetite and look forward to a collegial barbecue event.

Frequently asked questions

The precise design of a tension-shaft screening machine is always tailored to the recycled material. Factors such as the composition of the input material, its moisture content, contaminants, throughput requirements, and the recycling goals associated with the input material form the basis for this. Working with you, we define screening sizes, purity requirements, and throughput rates, and use this information to configure the exact machine settings—from screening panels to amplitude and machine features such as the SPALECK FineSideCOVER (FSC) or our MultiDECK technology with a split push rod. Learn more here about our ModularDESIGN+ concept, which we use to find the optimal screening machine for your material. We’d be happy to test the respective recycling material together with you free of charge at the SPALECK TestCenter.

Precise screening of the fine fraction results in clearly defined particle sizes. For example, if the fine fraction ranging from 0 to 10 mm is reliably screened out, downstream sorting equipment—such as eddy current separators, NIR sorters, sensor sorters, and X-ray sorters—operates more reliably and efficiently as a result. In addition, the system’s cleaning requirements are reduced, and higher material purity levels can be achieved. You can see a good example of the benefits of a tensioned-shaft screen in the reference video on municipal solid waste processing at our Swedish customer Tekniska verken. The video demonstrates how a SPALECK tension-shaft screen reduces the load on the downstream eddy current sorters and NIR sorting processes. You can find all the details about the project here.

The service life of screening mats for Flip-Flow screening machines depends heavily on the recycled material, the Recycling process, and factors such as the abrasiveness of the material stream. In many recycling applications, very long service lives are possible. Thanks to our bolt-free, modular clamping system, individual screening mats can be replaced quickly and easily as needed. You can see how this works in the video on our landing page for tension-shaft screen machines. You can get a competitive quote for replacement screening mats through our spare parts service.
