| 1. TekniFlow Patented multi-inlet scrap separation in a small package. Under-the-roof
installation makes this unit a viable alternative to cyclone-type separators.

 |
| 2. Cyclone An industry workhorse, this separator is available in a large range of air
volumes. Sufficient headroom must be considered for installation.
Back to the list |
 |
| 3. TekiFlow Concentrator Ideal for system expansion needs. Concentrators can reduce air volume in
lightly loaded conveying lines, and reduce the amount of air going to a primary separator.

 |
| 4. Afterfilter Simple and economic return-air filtering. Fabric bag-type filters are
manually cleaned by "shaking." Ducting of return-air back into a plant has
numerous benefits.
Back to the list |
 |
| 5. H.T.F. An afterfilter with cartridge-type filtering and automatic pulsed-air
cleaning. Filter changeouts are quick and easy. Units are compact and install in low
headroom areas.

 |
| 6. Balers and Compactors The final step in any scrap handling operation. Proper size-matching with the
pneumatic conveying system is important. Varying levels of automation are available.
Back to the list |
 |
| 7. Bale Transfer Unit An ideal solution to tight bale-room layouts where conventional conveyor
arrangements are constrained. Allows further automation of scrap-bale handling.
Back to the list |
 |
| 8. Rotary Lock Where turbulent air discharge is problematic, rotating blades form a seal to
the baling device. Also available are double flapper-type valves with automatic timers.

 |
| 9. Automatic Discharge
Pressure Control A totally air balanced material
discharge method for separator outlets. Particularly useful in TekniFlow installations.

 |
| 10. Floorsweep Shredder An economical method of keeping bale room areas clean. These units allow
larger scrap to be broken down and introduced into the pneumatic conveying system.
Back to the list |
 |
| 11. Full Sheet Shredder A larger capacity shredder for efficient reduction of sheet type scrap. Belt
feeds reduce operator caused plug-ups and improve worker safety.
Back to the list |
 |
| 12. High-Capacity
Shredder In the most demanding scrap reduction
applications, these high horsepower units handle very large quantities of material safely
and quickly.
Back to the list |
 |
| 13. Chopper Rotary knives cut continuous machine-fed trim to a size that will convey in
the air system. Units can be matched to line speeds and material weights.
Back to the list |
 |
| 14. Control Systems Useful for system automation, detection, warnings, and operator interfaces.
PLCs can be added for more complex control requirements.
Back to the list |
 |
| 15. Conveyors A somewhat slower but sometimes necessary step in scrap transfer. Various
types include belt, roller, powered and unpowered, inclined, and curved.

 |
| 16. Material Handling
Fan The key component in many pneumatic conveying
systems. Proper construction and sizing are critical for proper flow and pickup of scrap
material.
Back to the list |
 |
| 17. Return Air Fan For transport of dusty air that a separator wont remove, these fans
come in various configurations such as centrifugal, duct-axial, and vaneaxial.
Back to the list |
 |
| 18. Return-Air Bypass Diverting of return-air can be useful in both maintenance and climate control
situations. Available in manual and automatic configurations.
Back to the list |
 |
| 19. Hooding and
Floorsweeps Properly designed and fabricated inlet
fittings can make the difference between operator frustration or troublefree performance.
Back to the list |
 |
| 20. Switchvalve Streamlined internal components allow snag-free operation. Useful in multiple
scraps, segregation, or line switching. Manual, pneumatic, or electric operators.
Back to the list |
 |
| 21. Gatevalve An economical way of increasing system capacity when scrap sources are not in
continual use. Switching can be automated with timers or manually activated.
Back to the list |
 |
| 22. Air Bleed The air-bleed is one tool in the arsenal of proper material handling ducting
design. Allows constant velocity ducting and relief of pressure impulses.
