Trends and technology
News from the bomatic world

For our customers and interested parties in southern Europe, bomatic is currently setting up a new technical center on Mallorca, the first shredding machines and other devices have just been loaded for this purpose (always exciting; the loading by telescopic crane). The hall was acquired last year, now it’s time to set up. Different shredding machines will be available for trials, which of course can also be purchased directly by the customer. We look forward to exciting tests and visits to the new technical center.

For 8 months our shredding plant for producing of approx. 100 mm shreds has been running successfully now, finally the movie about the plant is ready now 😊. The heart of the system is our rotor shear of the type bomatic B1100DD, which powerfully crushes the tires. Too large pieces are separated via a sieve and fed back into the rotor shear.

..for 25 years now everything has revolved around shredding machines at bomatic and we were able to deliver great machines for exciting input materials. Many thanks to our loyal customers, some have been with us all the time. We are very proud we are trusted again and again and we look forward to the next 25 years 😊

For this task our vertical shredder type Rotacrex R1200 is being used in collaboration with LP Energy GmbH. In this plant is biogas produced out of horse dung and upgraded to fuel later.

As horse dung is quite long fibre, it has to be pre-cut by our Rotacrex R1200 bevor it is fed into the digester. The Rotacrex is fed by a dosing container, the shredded material is being pumped via a fluid entry into the digester.

In order to cut the wet and sticky material with the needed throughput capacity, the machine was delivered with 90 kW. The outlet opening can be adjusted to the needed output size, as it is with all our vertical shredders.

Dosing unit and shredder could be supplied as one unit and being used together several times. Please contact us for more information or https://www.lp-energy.de

…the year starts for us with completion and delivery of a granulator type Unicrex U1700. The machine will be used for granulation of tire shreds and wire into 15 mm final size. The Unicrex U1700 granulator is a very sturdy one-shaft shredder, driven by 160 kW. Under the shaft is placed a sieve, which ensures a constant granulation result. More machines will follow…

…This year we have chosen a versatile Christmas tree…

The bomatic team wishes merry Christmas and an optimistic start into 2021.

Please note, we are closed from 24.12.2020 – 04.01.2021. In urgent cases you could reach us under 0049-171-2711918

A new bomatic shredding plant for production of 100×100 mm tire shreds is running since two months successfully. The heart of the plant is our two-shaft shredder bomatic B1000DD, which cuts the tires the first time.  A following sieve separates the parts bigger than 100 mm, they will get cut again by the two-shaft shredder. Shreds smaller 100×100 mm will be transported out of  for further treatment. If smaller shreds are necessary, it is possible to change the hole sieve in the sieve.

Technical details of  the plant:

Throughput capacity:                     Output min. 4 t/h with 100 mm sieve

Power bomatic B1000DD:            2 x 37,5 kW

Power total plant:                           ca. 100 kW

If small product sizes are needed and tight space conditions are available only, it is possible to build our two-shaft shredders on top of each other.

This tower construction has just been delivered to Brazil, where a final grain size of about 10 mm is needed.  Therefore, the upper cutter module is fitted with 12 mm cutters for pre-cutting and the lower cutter module with 9 mm cutters for granulation.

If you have special tasks or projects, please feel free to ask us under boettcher@bomatic.de. We are looking forward to receiving exciting projects, which have to be built after customer’s needs.

Completion of two further DryWaste shredding machines of our type bomatic DS4 lang. They will be installed on a new cruise ship, which is being build in the moment. Our robust two-shaft shredder have been installed on cruise ship for more than 15 years now and they shred ship waste very reliably. However, not only DryWaste is being shred with our shredders, the foodwaste is pretreated with our shredders for a following drying process. More than 200 shredders type bomatic B400D are being used for shredding of the foodwaste and take care of reducing the amount of waste.

Wether with quarantine or not, even in these days the bomatic service people are traveling around in order to install our machines. So, another two-shaft shedder from type bomatic B1350S was installed in Spain, even it was not clear, if the people has to go into two weeks quarantine, when returning from Spain. Luckily, they hadn’t to go, because the guidelines were changed, when they came back 😉

The special feature of the machine is the hydraulic ram, which pushes into the hopper vertically from the top. Bulky containers, like IBC’S will be pushed from the top into the cutter module, so they have no chance to “dance” on the cutters without being teared into the cutter module.

Technical data of the machine:

Power: 75 kW with frequency converter, cutter module opening; 1.350 x 900 mm, cutter width: 56 mm, vertical hydraulic ram, total weight: 12.000 kg
