Your specialist for plant engineering in recycling technology - ANLAGENBAU GÜNTHER

What is plant engineering?

In plant construction, technical components are combined to form an integrated process system - customised to the customer's requirements and objectives. Instead of series production, plant engineering creates customised solutions that are precisely tailored to the material flow, energy requirements and production environment. Typical disciplines in plant engineering are process engineering, mechanical engineering and electrical engineering. Plant engineering is indispensable in many sectors of the economy - from industrial production to recycling technology.

Which processing systems for recycling technology does GÜNTHER develop?

GÜNTHER's plant engineering is specifically tailored to the requirements of the recycling industry. Our strength lies in plant engineering for recycling technology - especially in the development of processing and sorting plants for a wide range of waste and recyclable materials. For decades, we have been realising intelligent technologies for mechanical treatment and offering holistic concepts for modern waste management.

From the initial idea to the finished recycling plant - everything from a single source at ANLAGENBAU GÜNTHER

With our extensive product range in intake and screening technology, we often supply individual key components for modern processing plants for recycling technology. We also develop complete, turnkey systems - including electronics - precisely customised to your material flow and process requirements.

Thanks to our many years of experience in plant engineering for recycling technology, we successfully realise projects for a wide range of materials and conditions. We realise sorting plants for waste wood, lightweight packaging (LVP), household and commercial waste or develop complete plants for the production of substitute fuels (RDF). Our processing plants are also used for biowaste, green waste and compost.

A special highlight: our patented SPLITTER technology. It enables reliable and efficient screening of a wide range of materials - and is therefore often a central module in our recycling systems for cost-effective work.

How do waste sorting systems work?

Processing plant for building rubble

The plant was built in 2023. The plant uses a SPLITTER TWIN WAVE, FEINSPLITTER TWIN WAVE, STERNSIEB, conveyor technology as well as FE and NF separation.

The control technology from GÜNTHER included in the scope of delivery also incorporates other units.

The new screening plant separates construction waste into the various fractions and then feeds it into the recycling process, thereby increasing the recycling rate from construction waste material.


Processing plant for commercial waste into substitute fuel

The processing plant for commercial waste was built in 2020. It processes 25 to 30 tonnes of commercial waste per hour into high-quality refuse-derived fuel (RDF). It uses a SPLITTER Unit 625, a double-deck screening plant, air separators, light material separators with bag filters, modern conveyor technology and systems for FE and NF separation.

Thanks to its sophisticated design, the system enables various operating modes and ensures flexible adaptation to different output qualities. The control technology from ANLAGENBAU GÜNTHER included in the scope of delivery ensures the precise integration of all components - including pre- and post-shredders for efficient material processing.


Sorting plant for processing waste wood

The plant was built in 2020. It processes 30-33 tons of waste wood per hour. The plant uses a pre- and post-shredder, FE and NF separation, an air separator, conveyor technology and a MULTISTAR 2-SE star screen.

The system was also supplied by GÜNTHER including the control technology, into which the shredding technology was integrated. This is located in a specially designed electrical container.


Sorting plant for lightweight packaging - Hubert Eing Kunststoffverwertung GmbH

A wide variety of separation technologies are used in the system: SPLITTER, vibrating screens, FE and non-ferrous separators, NIR sorting technology, heavy material separators and several film extraction systems. The material is fed into the process on a chain belt conveyor as a feeding unit. A shredder serves as a bag ripper and distributes the loose material to two material flow lines.

A double SPLITTER screen deck is used to process the two material flows and thus ensure a high throughput. It reliably removes long parts and oversized materials such as film and bags from the material flow. The fine fraction first passes through a vibratory screen, a counter-rotating non-ferrous and ferrous de-airing system, an air classifier and several near-infrared systems (NIR separators), which sort the various plastics into PET, Tetra, PPK, PP, PVC and HDPE/PE based on their physical properties.

  • Individual customization:
    If changes are made to the project, we can usually implement them without complications. Problems can usually be solved with less effort.

  • Fast response time:
    As soon as you contact your project manager, he or she will take care of clarifying all your concerns as quickly as possible. This also means that we can react very sensitively and flexibly.

  • Flexibility is our strength:
    Both in planning and in implementation. We are able to adapt our ideas to your circumstances. This starts with the question of local conditions. Whether an existing building, a planned conversion or a new build - we design our systems intelligently, as space-saving as possible, but accessible. We adapt them precisely to your ideas and circumstances.

Process flow at Anlagenbau GÜNTHER

Our process engineers develop a plan for the system based on the objectives and decide which components are to be used in which order in the system. In the next step, the system is coordinated with the design engineers. They design the system and create 3D views. If necessary, everything is checked statically and the electrical engineering is coordinated. Drawings are then created for production. The individual system components are manufactured in our production hall. Our production includes steel construction, painting, final assembly and electrical assembly. Everything has to work hand in hand here. If there are any questions or uncertainties, we have short lines of communication between project planning, design and production.

The machines are then approved by quality management at the factory and finally dispatched. When they arrive at the customer's premises, our assembly team is ready and waiting. This consists largely of mechatronics engineers who are highly skilled in both mechanical and electrical engineering. Once the system has been completed, approved and commissioned at the customer's premises, our service team is available to the customer as a point of contact. They carry out training, regular inspections and maintenance, dispatch and install spare parts and advise our customers on further decisions.

Recycling technology with quality

We ourselves manufacture star screens (in cooperation with Komptech), SPLITTER, intake feeders and conveyor technology, among other things. Of course, we are happy to use these core competencies at the appropriate points in the system - because we are convinced of the quality and functionality of our technology.

In addition to our own portfolio, we also use other components regardless of the manufacturer. The units can be planned and integrated according to customer requirements.

We also take great care to ensure that purchased parts come from reputable manufacturers. We purchase a wide range of separation technologies for our plant construction from various renowned suppliers. These include Shredders, magnets, non-ferrous separators, air classifiers, sensor technology and various screens. We provide competent, manufacturer-independent and customer-oriented advice on the use of various units.

Thanks to their technical expertise, our process engineers and designers are also able to incorporate existing units into the planning and install them in a new system. Recycling" is therefore possible.

For the implementation of successful projects, it is not relevant whether you come to us with a problem, an initial idea or a finished concept. You tell us the goal you want to achieve with the system, such as meeting the recycling quota, increasing throughput or achieving a high sorting depth, and we create ready-made, functioning and efficient concepts.
