Shaufler

Metal recycling operations around the globe are continually looking for technology that will help them maximise their materials liberation efforts. To achieve greater yield from their line, Schaufler turned to UNTHA…

Austrian-headquartered metal separation, processing and recycling specialist Schaufler has invested in a new machine from fellow native brand UNTHA shredding technology, as the business looks to boost the efficiency of its scrap handling operation in 2020 and beyond.

The Ybbs an der Donau-based company is no stranger to ferrous and non-ferrous materials, having operated in the metals market since 1948. The 120-strong team handles copper, aluminium, zinc and stainless steel from scrap dealers, industry, municipal associations and private households, before collecting, sorting, shredding and selling the valuable recyclates to smelting works across Europe.

A world-renowned UNTHA XR3000C was first trialled back in March 2019, using Schaufler’s own materials. Impressed with the equipment’s high throughputs and low wear rate, the organisation has since invested in an XR shredder of its own. The UNTHA Eco Drive concept within the XR also lowers energy consumption by 75% compared to standard electrohydraulic drive options

In UNTHA, we have finally found a partner who took our wishes into account and provided targeted, solution-orientated support. We have been particularly impressed with the energy efficiency of the machine and would highly recommend both the unit and the supplier."
