Your contacts for optimized material feeding in sorting technology

Our team would be happy to advise you on a simple retrofit or new installation of ActiveFEED—and thus on how to easily optimize your sorting equipment.

ECS, XRT, XRF, SENSOR SORTERS, LIBS, and others

Designed for modern sorting technology

The ActiveFEED is specifically designed for demanding sorting and recycling processes. Where standard feed hoppers reach their limits, it delivers a consistent flow of material, thereby helping to improve sorting quality, sorting volume, and the cost-effectiveness of the sorting process.

It is ideal for:

Whether it's a retrofit or a new project, whether it's online or offline operation

Easy integration into your system

The ActiveFEED can be easily integrated into both new and existing systems.

This makes it possible to quickly and easily replace a malfunctioning feed system without having to redesign the entire plant.

Or as one customer put it: Remove the bolts from the old feeder, install ActiveFEED, and tighten the bolts again.

ActiveFEED optimizes your sorting process. At the push of a button.

Here's what recycling experts have to say about ActiveFEED

You no longer need to worry about it. You press the button, set the ActiveFEED and it runs. Press the desired quantity, the desired quantity is delivered. That's it!

With the old Infeed hopper, we wanted 4 tons per hour and got between 2 and 6 tons per hour. Today, with the ActiveFEED, the quantity only varies between +/- 150 kg.

ActiveFEED truly enables us to achieve our NEXT LEVEL SORTING. Even the manufacturer of our sorting equipment confirmed: “By integrating ActiveFEED, you’re now at the next level of sorting.”

Everything You Need to Know

FAQs

Here you’ll find questions and answers about ActiveFEED.

How quickly does the ActiveFEED feed hopper pay for itself?

The ActiveFEED feed hopper pays for itself from day one, as it significantly increases the recovery rate of non-ferrous metals in metal recycling, for example. In many cases, the payback period is less than half a year. We would be happy to advise you personally on this matter. Examples such as STENA Recycling and KMR Recycling show you exactly how this works.

What are the benefits of switching to a SPALECK ActiveFEED feed hopper?

Switching to a SPALECK ActiveFEED feed hopper optimizes material feeding in recycling plants. The constant feed actively prevents sorting equipment from being overloaded or underfed. This improves the quality of sorting in the recycling process and, as a result, expands the options for recycling. Many recyclers report that this allows them to take their sorting to the next level. Take STENA Recycling, for example, as shown in this feedback video.

Can I retrofit the ActiveFEED feed hopper into my system?

Yes, you can easily retrofit the SPALECK ActiveFEED feed hopper. Many of our customers are replacing their standard batch sizes and, as a result, achieving significantly better and more profitable sorting results. Check out this feedback from our client STENA to see how easy the replacement process is.

Can I also use ActiveFEED for XRF or XRT sorting technology?

Yes, the ActiveFEED is ideal as a feeding system for X-ray sorting technology, such as XRF or XRT sorting. In XRF and XRT sorting machines, it enables fully automatic, continuous material feeding. This allows recycling companies to use ActiveFEED to automatically feed their sorting machines with the optimal amount of material for each specific sorting machine and type of recyclable material. This increases both sorting efficiency and volume. In addition, sorting quality can be significantly improved through optimal feeding. See also the case study by STENA Recycling and the recycling expert Skrotfrag.

What sizes is the ActiveFEED infeed unit available in?

The ActiveFEED infeed unit is available in sizes ranging from 2 to 50 m³. We would be happy to advise you on the optimal size for your recycling application.
