“Simply great!” says Gabi Mumbeck, employee and co-organizer of today’s second blood donation day at SPALECK.

Previously, 87 of the 230 or so employees had registered to donate “at work”. After a brief medical check to clarify any colds or other impediments, 57 people, including 23 first-time donors, were allowed to give blood.

Very good reasons for the DRK blood donation service from Münster to come with a special blood donation bus. Gabi Mumbeck: “The donation with the DRK was well organized. The registration, the preliminary talk and the breakfast later took place in our SPALECK-owned health center and the donation took place in the bus.”

The fundraising campaign was initiated by the Spaleck Health Circle. Employees from various areas of the company are involved in this group and develop and organize campaigns for the entire workforce to improve employee health.

Gabi Mumbeck, member of the health circle: “We are delighted with the repeated willingness to donate. A big thank you to the team. We would also like to thank the DRK for the opportunity to donate directly at our company and, of course, the Bocholt DRK association for the very hearty catering.” After the donation, all participants were able to resume their work feeling refreshed. Michael Wiesmann (photo), one of the most experienced donors with his 58th donation today: “A great campaign and, thanks to the donation during working hours, a very easy start for our first-time donors.”

Frequently asked questions

The precise design of a tension-shaft screening machine is always tailored to the recycled material. Factors such as the composition of the input material, its moisture content, contaminants, throughput requirements, and the recycling goals associated with the input material form the basis for this. Working with you, we define screening sizes, purity requirements, and throughput rates, and use this information to configure the exact machine settings—from screening panels to amplitude and machine features such as the SPALECK FineSideCOVER (FSC) or our MultiDECK technology with a split push rod. Learn more here about our ModularDESIGN+ concept, which we use to find the optimal screening machine for your material. We’d be happy to test the respective recycling material together with you free of charge at the SPALECK TestCenter.

Precise screening of the fine fraction results in clearly defined particle sizes. For example, if the fine fraction ranging from 0 to 10 mm is reliably screened out, downstream sorting equipment—such as eddy current separators, NIR sorters, sensor sorters, and X-ray sorters—operates more reliably and efficiently as a result. In addition, the system’s cleaning requirements are reduced, and higher material purity levels can be achieved. You can see a good example of the benefits of a tensioned-shaft screen in the reference video on municipal solid waste processing at our Swedish customer Tekniska verken. The video demonstrates how a SPALECK tension-shaft screen reduces the load on the downstream eddy current sorters and NIR sorting processes. You can find all the details about the project here.

The service life of screening mats for Flip-Flow screening machines depends heavily on the recycled material, the Recycling process, and factors such as the abrasiveness of the material stream. In many recycling applications, very long service lives are possible. Thanks to our bolt-free, modular clamping system, individual screening mats can be replaced quickly and easily as needed. You can see how this works in the video on our landing page for tension-shaft screen machines. You can get a competitive quote for replacement screening mats through our spare parts service.
