CK International Offers Integrated Recycling Solution For Cardboard Waste

摘要

The retailer was wrestling with large clothing boxes, manually cutting and flattening these and packing them into 1100L containers. These containers then needed to be taken away and tipped into a compactor. They were moving around 3 tonne per day. However, with expansion plans they needed to be able to handle 5 tonne minimum per day. Not only was this inefficient but they were receiving little to no rebate for the material. The current set-up was time-consuming and not compatible with their growth plans. Their logistics firm approached CK International for a solution that supported their vision. CK International are one of the market leaders in the design and manufacturer of recycling equipment, offering a large range of fully and semi-automatic balers and compactors. Following consultations, the company came up with a custom engineered solution. Conveyors played a big part in transporting material around the new set-up, so the design of these needed to consider fire exits and other obstructions. Supported by Conveyor Tek, CK International installed a 30m long flat feed conveyor, feeding onto an incline conveyors and then into an Avermann Channel Baler AVOS 1211.
