A customer based in the United Kingdom manages a scrap metal recycling plant. Processing the waste metal presented a challenging application that their current screening set-up could not handle efficiently.

The M412, equipped with its robust features and advanced technology, successfully addressed the challenges at hand. In this scenario the customer decided to trade in their existing screener and replace it with the MDS M412.

The Challenge:

The customer currently sorts their material into different grades using a regular flat deck scalper with a belt feeder. The material is harsh on the machine, frequently ripping the conveyor belts and clogging up the screen deck, leading to high levels of downtime for maintenance of the unit. To reduce downtime the unit is fed with extreme caution, stifling their production rates.

The Solution:

After hearing the customer's concerns regarding their existing screening setup, our reliable dealer provided them with a demonstration of the MDS M412 Heavy Duty Trommel. Recognizing the key features of the M412, including its heavy-duty pan feeder and crusher-grade conveyor belts, they believed it would offer an ideal solution. The customer received enhanced efficiency, reliability, and productivity in their scrap metal recycling process with this MDS unit, leading to increased profitability and operational success.
