In the production of sodium carbonate with fluctuating feed rates and finest separations in the range of 200 µm, many manufacturers rely on the proven screening quality of the RHEWUM WA vibration screening machine to achieve optimum quality of their produ Sodium carbonate has been used by humans for a long time and is considered one of the most versatile chemical products. Its applications include the glass industry, the chemical industry, the pulp and paper industry as well as the detergent and soap industry. The screening task usually consists of screening out the existing dust content from the actual soda product. Recent screening tests with sodium carbonate at the RHEWUM technical center confirm that the type WA screening machine is perfectly suited for finest separations at high capacities. The screen cloth is excited to high-frequency vibrations by means of beater bars directly applied to the screen cloth. Outside of the screen housing rugged electromagnetic drives rock the knocker shafts, conveying the high frequency oscillation directly into the screen mesh. Accelerations of up to 15 g and more are thus achieved on the screen cloth. The power of the electromagnets can be adjusted during operation via an electronic

In his production chain an American manufacturer will no longer use two machines for screening his plastic granulate, but only one: the Rhewum wafl with two screen decks. Pavement markings have been used since the beginning of the 20th century. Today they are part of the modern street scene and without them we would sometimes lose orientation. The line markings create a clear and safe traffic guidance. The products of the world’s leading North Carolina-based manufacturer are not only used on roads and highways, but also on taxiways, take-off and landing runways, parking lots, intersections and in all types of commercial, construction, government, industrial and architectural environments. So these markings help drivers, pilots and pedestrians to move safely in the right direction. The exact process of producing road markings will not be discussed in detail at this point, as it is quite complex. However, plastic granulate is processed in the production of road markings, that must be dewatered. With the help of the Rhewum wafl the water can be perfectly separated from the product and a low residual moisture of approx. 8 percent can

In order to increase the plant capacity for the production of cat litter, an international oriented company for raw materials built a second production line, in which RHEWUM screening technology was used once again to ensure product quality. A new, modern and automated high-bay warehouse ensures better logistics and efficient transport organisation to Europe as well as to the United Arab Emirates and Australia. After the discontinuation of mining in 1992 the potash factory in Lower Saxony was converted for a cat litter production using the already existing infrastructure. As a result of the success and increasing demand in the sales network with other companies, the second production line will increase capacity by 40 percent per year in the future. For this purpose further proven screening machines of Rhewum gmbH were designed, ordered, delivered on schedule and installed into an existing building. The commissioning at the end of 2019 was successful without any problems

At the beginning of September two employees of RHEWUM headed east to introduce RHEWUM screening machines to potential customers and those interested. The trip took them from RHEWUM’s headquarter in Remscheid to Freiberg in the Free State of Saxony which is located 545 kilometers away. The first destination was the Technical University “Bergakademie Freiberg”. During their visit our employees met with heads of institutes and PhD students for networking and a live presentation on our demo screening machine. Afterwards, plans for future cooperation were discussed during a shared barbecue. Consequently, RHEWUM will stay in contact with the TU Bergakademie Freiberg in order to realize future joint projects and to benefit from an intensive bilateral knowledge transfer of theory and industrial practice in the field of mechanical process engineering. The journey continued from Freiberg to Lutherstadt Wittenberg. Apart from being famous for its probably most prominent resident Martin Luther, Wittenberg is also known as an industrial-cultural city, as one of the most important chemical sites in Europe is located here.

Direct excited screening machines from RHEWUM for sugar industry A well-known European sugar producer was looking for new screening machines to replace his worn-out sizers. Since not only the old machines but also the building were affected, the new sifters should transfer as few vibrations as possible into the building and at the same time increase the efficiency of the screening process. So the decision was made for a machine with directly excited screen meshes. The existing sizers were designed for a throughput of 30 tons of refined sugar per hour with 5 separating cuts, whereas the required product quality for the lowest deck with a separating cut of 0.2 mm could not achieve the required product quality. To find a suitable replacement, trials were made in the technical center of RHEWUM, during which process-relevant parameters of the screening machine were determined and also the compliance with the permissible amount of off-spec particles for numerous sugar types was considered and proved. The results of machine types WA and

Effortless screening of lumps with the Rhewum sv-S feeder What to do if the product has lumps so large that they could even damage the screen mesh? Then a pre-screening must be implemented.. With the help of a Rhewum SV-S feeder this is no problem. For the screening of 200 tons of calcium ammonium nitrate (CAN) per hour an internationally operating plant manufacturer will receive a RHEWUM screener type WAU including a SV-S for his end customer from Egypt. SV means "lateral distribution", S stands for "screen". The directly excited screening machine type WAU is designed as a double-decker with separations at 5 mm and 2 mm. To prevent larger lumps from damaging the screen cloth of the WAU or clogging the coarse grain outlet, they are screened in a pre-separation in the SV-S at 15 mm. This reduces the loads on the screening machine while maximizing the service life and optimizing the actual screening process. A further advantage of the SV feeder with screening is the uniform distribution over the entire width of the screen.

To reduce the noise emission of your screening machine RHEWUM now offers an innovative sound insulation cover. Usually screening machines are not the quietest machines in the production chain. Due to impact bar movements the screen cloth is excited to high frequency vibrations. This, in combination with the product to be screened, causes noise emissions which sometimes have to be reduced. The sound insulation tarpaulin for screening machines provides a quick and uncomplicated solution to this problem. The sturdy, custom-made tarpaulin is covered with an acoustic membrane which damps the sound and absorbs sound energy. The sound power level of the machine can be reduced by 8 dB by attaching the sound-insulating tarpaulin, which corresponds to approximately halving the perceived noise level. The tarpaulin is flexible and easy to bend - which in turn ensures simple and quick installation on the machine. Important maintenance openings remain easy to operate, as the tarpaulin can be opened at the crucial points using robust zips. The short implementation time and the cost-effective

Screen your ammonium nitrate safely and without risk by using RHEWUM screening technology. Ammonium nitrate is considered to be oxidizing but cannot ignite itself - unless large quantities are close together. Then it starts to work and heats up. The ammonium nitrate catches fire. This releases oxygen and the fire spreads. In fertilizers, it may only be used in mixtures due to its latent danger. But what does this mean for screening? Possible risks that could arise during a screening process of ammonium nitrate are, for example, high dust generation, which can lead to dust explosions and damage to health. In conformity with the ATEX directives RHEWUM screening machines are equipped with a dust-tight housing with connection to a dust extraction system to avoid high dust concentrations. A further risk is the required vibration during screening. All moving parts of a screening machine (e.g. the excitation axles, springs or bouncing balls for cleaning the meshes) which come into contact with ammonium nitrate can potentially cause an effective force. This friction

French animal feed manufacturer gets suitable RHEWUM screening machine for screening of meat and bone meal. Animal meal is often added to animal feed as a source of protein and used as food for pets as well as zoo animals. Under strict conditions, it is also suitable as a fertilizer in agriculture. For the feed capacity of 20 tons of animal feed per hour the customer now receives a screening machine type WA with suitable feeder type SV from RHEWUM which replaces an outdated screening machine of another screening machine manufacturer. The separation is at 1 mm for removing lumps and impurities. The type WA is excellently suited for sieving powder and meal in the finest to medium grain range and can be easily integrated into existing plants. The direct transmission of the vibrations to the screen mesh via powerful electromagnets is not only energy-efficient, but also enables extremely high accelerations of more than 15 g and thus guarantees a sharp separation even when screening fine powders. Further convincing advantages of the Rhewum wa are the high availability and reliability.

RHEWUM supplied various asphalt mixing plant operators with new DF screening units for the season. In general asphalt is a mixture of minerals and bitumen as binder. In asphalt mixing plants asphalt mixes are produced by a thermal mixing process of mineral rocks, filler (rock flour), binder (bitumen) and if necessary additives for different requirements. Screening machines are required to classify the mineral rock for these processes. Like for example the Rhewum double Frequency Screening Machine (short DF) - a high performance unit for screening in the medium and coarse grain range. The drive principle of the DF is based on the use of two vibration motors with different speeds. The product is loosened and mixed at the screen inlet due to the large vibration amplitude. The higher frequency at the screen outlet causes even difficult to screen material to be screened due to the higher acceleration. By changing the direction of rotation of the vibration motors at the inlet and outlet, the transport speed of the product can be changed. Advantages include good accessibility

The leading Italian producer of building products expects two new vibratory screening machines. In the Fassa bortolo plants sixteen Rhewum wa screening machines, one Rhewum dfm and one Rhewum mds machine have been performing faithfully in the classification of dolomite, limestone and sand since 1991. For its plant in Brazil, the industry specialist requires screening machines that will be used in the future for classifying limestone and silica sand. The limestone to be classified has a nominal feed capacity of 60 t/h and a maximum of 70 t/h per screening unit, whereas with silica sand it is a nominal 30 t/h and a maximum of 60 t/h. The separation is 4.5 mm, 3.0 mm, 1.2 mm and 0.6 mm with a desired screening of maximum 140 tons per hour. Due to the requirements two screening machines of RHEWUM type WA with triple-deck screening unit and the 60 Hz mains frequency required for Brazil proved to be the optimal solution. Not only the very good quality of our screening machines is decisive for the customer. But also our many years of experience in the uncomplicated

Rudolf Landsmann is the new Senior Manager Modernization and Retrofit. RHEWUM screening machines usually have a long lifetime. But often the demands on the machine change during its lifetime. Therefore the machine has to be modernized (retrofit). Due to their long experience our screening experts of the RHEWUM retrofit team are able to realize the complex customer requirements and to make the RHEWUM screening machine fit for new tasks. After studying processing technology at the renowned TU Clausthal in Lower Saxony, Rudolf Landsmann started at Rhewum gmbH in 1987 as laboratory assistant and deputy laboratory manager of the Rhewum technical Center. There he accompanied the research and development of special machines which were then as now designed and manufactured specifically according to customer requirements. Rudolf Landsmann was also significantly involved in the further development of today`s multi-deck plansifter MDS and wet screening machine WAFL. In 1989 the graduate engineer changed to the sales department of Rhewum gmbH and

RHEWUM Screening Technologies for Glass Processing Glass can be found in almost all areas of daily life. Starting in the construction industry, through telecommunications, household, food, automotive and aircraft construction to optics. The ever-increasing demands on technical glass can only be met by using ever more precise basic materials such as quartz sand and soda. But also a variety of glass products such as glass wool, glass balls or other waste glass only become a saleable product through classification. RHEWUM screening machines are also used in the processing of glass. Glass production The technique of glass production has been known for over 6,000 years. It has been continuously refined until today. Since then, glass has been used in a wide range of applications and has become a versatile material. In general, every glass contains one or more glass-forming oxides. The most commonly used are silicon dioxide (SiO2), i.e. quartz sand, but also boron trioxide and phosphorus pentoxide. Classification in basic

As an expert for screening machines RHEWUM has an answer First considerations in advance Before you contact potential suppliers, you should be clear about the general conditions for the new screening machine. Keep in mind that every increase in quality requirements leads to an increase in costs, as the required screen areas have to be increased. In production engineering, therefore, the basic principle is: as exact as necessary and as imprecise as possible. An often underestimated question is: Should the machine be planned into an existing building or is the building still to be erected? While directly driven screening machines hardly emit any vibrations and are therefore statically negligible, these must be taken into account with vibrating machines. The statics of the building must be adapted to the machine type and may become a cost driver. Experience has shown that vibrating screening machines at great building heights can cause lasting damage to weak structures. Furthermore, the height situation must often be taken into

RHEWUM presents solution for difficult screening tasks in the fertilizer industry Introduction Typical phosphate fertilizers have specifications that allow particle sizes between 2 mm and 4 or 5 mm. In addition, these products are often expected to have a quality of more than 90 percent, which means that only 10 percent of the particles may be outside the specialized range. On the other hand, phosphate fertiliser production plants have a production rate of several hundred tonnes per hour. Phosphate granulate tends to clog the screen meshes. If this occurs, production must be stopped to allow the meshes to be cleaned or replaced. The biggest challenge of a phosphate screening machine is therefore to obtain a high quality material with a high throughput while ensuring a low downtime for maintenance. Our solution - the WA(U) screening machine The concept of the Rhewum wa/WA(U) screening machine consists of directly excited screening meshes which are positioned at an angle to transport the material over the screen. The whole machine housing does not

The company BK Giulini from Ladenburg, Germany, which sells its products under the brand name ICL, used an old screening machine from RHEWUM to classify monosodium phosphates as well as sodium pyrophosphates. These mentioned phosphates can be found among others in food, cosmetics or also in metal surface treatment. For 50 years this screening machine type B27/180 has been in operation at BK Giulini. The high maintenance requirements in recent years have now prompted the company to replace the old machine. BK Giulini has again decided in favour of a screening machine made by RHEWUM as the good quality and reliability of these screening machines speak for themselves. The challenge this time was to maintain the supply and discharge assemblies and thus to manufacture the new screening machine with a perfect fit. As it is essential in the food industry that products are free of any contamination, the screening machine was manufactured from the high quality stainless steel

For a manufacturer of wooden floors, a RHEWUM screening machine is the solution to increase efficiency. The laminate manufacturing process involves many steps. The biggest waste, however, occurs when the wooden boards are cut into planks. Both cut waste and sawdust are produced, which can hardly be sold as a final product. This was exactly the problem that RHEWUM`s screening machines were used to deal with in 2016, when one of the global leaders in wooden flooring and interior design relied on RHEWUM to recycle its waste and thus increase the overall efficiency of its production. The special challenge here was the separation of the finest sawdust from a mill. In general, wood-based materials tend to clog the screen cloth easily. During the screening process, the fine particles can get stuck in the meshes and reduce the screening performance. In this case, the customer`s grain spectrum was broad. From easily visible wood chips with a size of more than 10.0 mm, which have to be crushed again, to the screening of fine dust below 400 microns, which accounts for almost one

Sceening machines are indispensable in the potash production process. Potash is an essential building block of life. Together with nitrogen and phosphorus, potash is the third essential one. It supports plant growth, enzyme activity, protein formation, photosynthesis, respiration and the improved absorption of nutrients. Almost 95% of all potash produced is used as a fertilizer. Potash extraction Potash deposits, which are located at fixed positions and depths of up to 1400 m, are extracted by mechanised methods of underground mining. When underground extraction is no longer feasible due to the depth of the deposits and/or when water inflow problems hinder conventional underground mining, the extraction of salt domes is used. Solar evaporation of brine containing natural potash is the third method of extraction. Screening technologies in the potash industry Screening machines are required at various points in the processing chain. Starting with the extraction, because the mineral extracted from the mines is first crushed and then pre-classified.

The hygroscopic characteristics of urea often lead to clogging of the screen cloth As the consumption of food increases worldwide, so does the demand for fertilizers. For these reasons, one of our customers has opened another plant for the production of urea fertilizers. He relies on the high quality and efficiency of RHEWUM screens. The hygroscopic characteristics of urea can lead to lumping and clogging of the screen cloth, which has a negative effect on screen efficiency. As a pioneer of directly excited screening technology, we understand this problem and attach great importance to screening machines with automatic mesh cleaning mechanisms. For the classification of urea granules, we use double-deck screening machines with an integrated lump screen to gently remove the lumps produced during the upstream process. We have designed 4 Rhewum wau screening machines which screen in 4 fractions: lumps (larger than 15 mm), coarse particles (4 - 15 mm), main product (2 - 4 mm) and fine particles (smaller than 2 mm). In order to guarantee a constant distribution

Avoid dust explosions with RHEWUM technology A dust explosion can have devastating consequences. Especially in the USA, the number of grain dust explosions in 2018 increased by more than 70 percent compared to the previous year. When a dust explosion occurs, entire production facilities are usually destroyed. What remains are expensive damages, injuries or even fatalities. In 2017 the number of grain dust explosions in the USA was only 7. In 2018 the number increased up to 12 (Source: news.bulk-online.com). In a dust explosion the particle size is critical, i.e. the explosive potential increases with decreasing size. Size reduction results in very large surfaces, whereby the dust particles oxidize very quickly on the one hand and absorb ambient heat very well on the other hand and can ignite themselves. In order to avoid such devastating dust explosions, it is very important to keep the screening plant dust-free, to ensure that the staff on site is well trained and that the equipment is properly maintained

For dust-free sieving of large volumes of fine to very fine powders. When sieving or classifying very fine material two problems often occure: - Powder that gets stuck in the meshes of the screen cloth, reducing the capacity of the screen. - A lot of dust is blown into the production area Rhewum has solved both these problems with the WAF powder sieve. In the WAF powder screens, RHEWUM combines two movements: 1.The screen cloth is directly exitated from below by knocker bars (like in the Rhewum wa machines). So the screen goes up en down. 2.At the same time, two motors, rotating in the opposite direction, ensure a linear movement of the screen (as is the case with a vibrating feeder). The linear movement ensures the transport of the powder over the sloping screen cloth. In the meantime, since the screen cloth is frequently struck from below, the powder particles constantly jump up, and the particles that have settled in the screen holes are loosened. As a result of this direct exitation of the screen, the screen cloth remains

With a mobile Rhewum wa(U) screening machine across India. After the successful roadshow in India last year, our subsidiary RHEWUM india Pvt. Ltd. has again planned a roadshow through India this year. If the customer cannot come to the screening machine, we just come to the customer with the screening machine - that was the idea of a mobile Rhewum wa(U). This has already enabled us to carry out a successful roadshow in India last year. Various companies from the fertilizer, sugar and sand industries were visited. Since the transfer of theoretical know-how and the demonstration of practical examples for screening fertilizers, sand and sugar were very well received, we have planned a continuation for this year. In the first stage, at the end of December and beginning of January, companies from the fertilizer and sand industry were visited. In the fertilizer industry, we were able to achieve excellent screening results in the screening of NPK fertilizers with 4 mm and 1 mm separation cuts. We were also able to successfully

Theme ”The recent advances in the drying, sorting and packaging of sugar”. On 14 February 2019, a full-day seminar on the topic ”The recent advances in sugar drying, sorting and packaging” was held in Dehradun, India. RHEWUM GmbH & its subsidiary RHEWUM India Pvt. Ltd. gave presentations on technologies for sifting sugar and were able to demonstrate the technology directly on site with a mobile RHEWUM WA(U) sifting machine. Sugar sorting plays an important role in determining sugar quality in relation to grain size and can lead to a better price on the market with uniform grain sizes. For bulk consumers, the dry mixing of sugar is energy efficient compared to the wet process. The constant sugar grain size is very important for the dry mixing process. Efficient sorting also optimizes product performance and seed recycling. In times of constantly rising production costs and strict environmental and food safety standards, the optimization of sugar plants with clean and efficient processes is an important factor for remaining profitable.

YARA in Rostock is now screening calcium ammonium nitrate with RHEWUM screening machines. Calcium ammonium nitrate (CAN) is a popular nitrogen fertilizer in agriculture for plant nutrition. Due to the difficult screening characteristics of CAN, YARA in Rostock has again opted for RHEWUM technology to expand its capacity. When increasing the capacity, our customer duplicated the existing screening line. In addition to the increase of capacity, this also results in increased availability. The new screens were modernized and modified together with the customer along with his accumulated experience and are thereby optimally adapted to the plant, which achieves a flow rate of up to 350 t/h. The construction of the plant will be realized in two stages. In the first stage, RHEWUM DF course screens with downstream RHEWUM RIUS are used (screen cut 5.0 mm). RHEWUM WA fine screens (screen cut 3.2 mm) remove the fine dust in the second stage. Several special features of the machines were taken into account during the implementation of the project. Due to the abrasive

Simplified operation and downward-compatible functionality and size! The WA6 is the most modern component for your directly excited RHEWUM WA screening machine due to its simplified operation and its downward-compatible functionality and size. You have full control over the screening process. Since we have developed our WA screening machines, we have also continuously improved the components we use for electronic control. With the help of this module you can control the intensity of the WA vibration heads, which transmit the vibrations directly to the screen cloth. With the WA6 module, you can perfectly adjust the WA screening machine to your screening product. You can regulate it either on the device in the control cabinet or remotely from a distance with a setpoint value specified by the process control system. The cleaning impulse can also be individually adjusted and ensures that the screen cloth cleans itself at regular intervals. Adjustment and operation are now even easier thanks to an LCD display with optimized menu navigation.

RHEWUM screening machines in operation to screen potassium polyphosphate. The company BK Giulini based in Ludwigshafen had two RHEWUM screening machines type WAN in operation to classify potassium polyphosphate, a food additive. These screening machines required more maintenance in the last years of operation (35 years in operation so far). With the procurement of new screening machines, BK Giulini again relied on the current screening technology, the good quality and reliability of RHEWUM GmbH. The new high-performance screening machines type WAU significantly optimize both the classification (separation at 1.0 mm) and the maintenance. Due to the high radiation heat caused by the high product temperature, insulation of the machine walls and additional cooling of the external drives were installed. In addition, there was the challenge of retaining the infeed and outfeed components, which meant that the new machines had to be manufactured to a precise fit. These conditions and the fact that only a few standard components could be

One of the world’s leading suppliers of nitrogen-based fertilizers relies on RHEWUM One of the world’s leading suppliers of nitrogen-based fertilizers optimizes its screening processes with RHEWUM machines. One of the end products, CAN (Calcium Ammonium Nitrate), known for its versatility in use, e.g. as preferred application for acid soils, is a widely used fertilizer. However, because of its hygroscopic property it depicts a problem for conventional screens, as they clog quickly. RHEWUM was entrusted with the task of classifying this fertilizer efficiently and precisely into two fractions. Therefore the producer has been using vibration screening machines of the type RHEWUM WA since 2015, which prevent the agglomeration of the particles through their high frequency and the direct excitation of the screen meshes. The anticipated quantity of bulk material of 400 tons per hour, is classified in the fractions of 2.5 millimeters and 4.5 millimeters. Essential for an efficient handling of such amounts, is an optimal distribution over the entire

How does the choice of separation cuts of your screening machine affect the results? Test how the selection of the screen cuts of your screening machine affects the results of your screening process. The new RHEWUM Screen Efficiency Calculator determines the respective purity and yield quickly and easily – without irritating formulas. Every producer aims to extract the greatest possible quantity of his product from the feed quantity without sacrificing the high level of quality. So in the ideal case yield and purity should both be 100 percent. But in practice, this is not technically possible and therefore testing is required to choose the right screen cut for your screening machine in order to extract a product with high yield and at the same maintaining the required purity. The RHEWUM Screen Efficiency Calculator uses the grain size distribution of your feed material, the chosen screen cuts and also the efficiency of the used screening machine to calculate not only the yield and purity, but also the massflow of the different fractions and to

This year RHEWUM GmbH equips the smallest players. This year RHEWUM GmbH equips the smallest players of the handball club of a sports club in Lüttringhausen with jerseys. RHEWUM GmbH encountered great joy and gratitude among the F-Youth handball team. Already three years ago the RHEWUM GmbH has donated jerseys to the B-Youth handball team. This time we supported the smallest players of the club. During our visit of the F-Youth handball team during the training we were warmly welcomed with the new jerseys. We were told that the jerseys had already brought luck in the first use and led to a victory! We wish the players much success this year and a positive development as a team.

On Friday, 21 December 2018, the last German colliery was closed in Bottrop. On Friday, 21 December 2018, the last German colliery wa closed in Bottrop. We wish the miners ”Good Luck!” for the future. All of Germany looked to Bottrop at the end of 2018. After a long tradition the last colliery in Prosper Haniel in Germany has been closed on Friday, 21 December 2018. Thus a long tradition-rich occupation and era came to an end. On the occasion of the closure, an ecumenical service has been held in the Essen Dome, to which the patron saint, the holy Barbara statue, has been brought from a depth of 1,200 metres and to thank the miners for their many years of work. The patron saint was often depicted on miner’s lamps. Such a petroleum lamp, like the one here from RHEWUM, was a duty for the miners to find their way outside in case of a electrical breakdown.

Every year RHEWUM GmbH is committed to non-profit associations in the Berg. City triangle. Every year, the employees of RHEWUM GmbH and the Management are committed to non-profit associations at the Bergisch city triangle production site. In 2018, the donation of 2,000 euros went to the medical child protection centre (German: ärztliche Kinderschutzambulanz e.V.). The Workers Council and Management met with Dorothea Schauf on 18 December 2018 to present the donation cheque. The Remscheid-based association supports children and young people who are affected by physical abuse, neglect and/or sexual violence on a daily basis or who are suspected of such abuse. With the donation we want to take the financial pressure off this great association and wish it all the best for the future.

From 05 to 07 December 2018 our subsidiary RHEWUM India Pvt. Ltd. participated. Last year’s seminar dealt with the topic ”Making Fertiliser Industry Viable and Vibrant”. As a result of the increasing production of cereals and fruit and vegetables, the sustainability of production must be taken into account much more closely in the face of declining acreage and decreasing water resources. At the same time, the variation of fertilizers is becoming increasingly important for agriculture in order to make them sustainable. This year, the FAI (Fertilizer Association of India) Annual Seminar offered the opportunity to discuss key issues with decision-makers from government, industry and other stakeholders. Through our know-how in the processing of phosphate, NPK, nitrogen and potash fertilizers, we made our contribution to the FAI Annual Seminar.

Driving with a screening machine on a truck across India? We’re doing it! In April, we started our roadshow across India to show our customers and prospect the performance of our screening machines. The first stage is now behind us and was a complete success. We were able to present our versatile RHEWUM screening technology to 15 companies from the fertilizer, sugar and sand industry. With our WA (U) mobile screening machine, our colleagues in India have not only provided their hosts with theoretical know-how, but have also been able to give hands-on examples of screening fertilizers, sand and sugar, and that’s what counted. In this way, we were able to show one of our customers in the fertilizer industry how he can increase his phosphate screening productivity by 25% without having to change existing processes. With considerable savings in electricity and maintenance costs, as well as a screen purity of around 97% (i.e. in the case of material <150 microns), we exited our customer. Various sand producers also received demonstrations

Take a look behind the scenes of RHEWUM on 12 September 2018. Those who are interested in learning more about the separation of bulk solids and the operating principles of screening machines and vibrating feeders, are kindly invited to take a look behind the scenes of RHEWUM on 12 September 2018. As an interest group the German Powder and Bulk Association (in German: Deutscher Schüttgut-Industrie Verband e.V., abbreviated: DSIV) brings together individuals and companies that are working in the fields of production, warehousing, transportation and handling of bulk solids. Since its foundation in 2012, the DSIV has regularly been gathering its members for exchanging opinions and experiences and has also been offering informative professional events. Screening technology plays an important role when processing bulk solids as it significantly influences the quality of the final products. RHEWUM has been planning, constructing and manufacturing screening machines and vibrating feeders at its own site in Remscheid for more than

Video series about screening and classifying As a specialist when it comes to industrial screeners, we would like to share our knowledge and are therefore starting a video series which answers questions from the field of screening and classifying quickly and comprehensibly. Have you ever wondered why screeners are inclined? Dou you know the differences between dedusting, classifying and protection screening? And what has explosion protection to do with industrial screeners? These questions and many more will now be answered by Mr. Prof. Dr.-Ing. Albert Daniels (Professor of Mineral Resourcing Extraction at the Technical University Georg Agricola) in our weekly published YouTube-Videos. Check our YouTube channel regularly or directly subscribe to our channel at www.youtube.com/rhewumgmbh. Here you can already see what questions will be illuminated in the following 12 weeks: What role does the inclination of the screening machine play? Why does one require different screening machines for different products? What

RHEWUM sponsors student excursion With the financial support of RHEWUM and other sponsors from the mining industry, students from the field of Raw Materials Engineering of the Technical University Georg Agricola (THGA) traveled about 2,800 km through the sixth largest economy of Southeast Asia. Vietnam is considered one of the emerging economies of Southeast Asia with good economic prospects. Stable economic growth, a relatively cheap and well-educated workforce and political stability offer attractive conditions for investors. With a share of around 6.5% of the gross domestic product, mining is now Vietnam’s fourth-largest economic sector and continues to gain in importance. With the aim to visit mining sites in the northern and central parts of the country, the students of the THGA started their excursion to Vietnam in April. Above all, the focus was on mining of hard coal, apatite, copper, limestone and heavy minerals. To obtain practical impressions, the students visited in addition to the

Screening machines for mining by RHEWUM From 17 to 19 April 2018 you can meet RHEWUM GmbH in Moscow. We present our screening solutions for coal, ores, slags and minerals in Russia.

The 22nd edition of the MiningWorld Russia expects around 4,175 visitors from Russia and abroad: An excellent opportunity to cultivate existing business contacts and make new ones in addition to the exchange of experts. Besides the exhibition, there is also a developed business program, with seminars on different topics of the mining industry. We look

Not every customer or prospect has the opportunity to see our screening machines at trade fairs or exhibitions and so we came to the conclusion that the machine has to come to the customer. From 9 April to 15 May we are going to let our prospects in India experience our screening equipment. Although, after RHEWUM founded its subsidiary RHEWUM India Pvt. Ltd. in 2017, our Indian customers are served by our local sales and service department as well as manufacturing partners on site, we would like to maintain the relationship also from Germany. With our mobile screening machine WA(U), we tour and visit new and existing customers to show them the latest trends and techniques, to advise our customers on the profitability of their equipment and to keep them up-to-date in terms of screening technology. We are looking forward to an exciting time in India!

Residues of packaging waste found in sea salts On behalf of the NDR-consumer magazine “Markt”, Scientists at the Institute for Biology and Chemistry of the Sea at the University of Oldenburg have examined samples of the most popular Fleur de Sel brands. The results are concerning. After English scientists were able to prove the contamination of sea salts by microplastics last year (see article dated 10.08.2017), the NDR turned its attention now to the analysis of different varieties of Fleur de Sel and compared them with conventional sea salts. Fleur de Sel is considered as the noblest and most expensive sea salt, because it is skimmed by hand from the water surface. All the more frightening are the results of the current study for consumers: The content of microplastics in all samples was between 130 and 1,800 micrograms per kilogram. In one case, plastic fibers were even visible to the bare eye. In the conventional sea salts tested, ”only” 14 to 59 micrograms were found. The residues found are

Renewable energies are today more important than ever. SUEZ focuses on sustainability and therefore produces high-quality biogas and compost! In Montpellier, SUEZ supports its subsidiary Amétyst with 10 million euros for the development of its processing plant for domestic waste and biowaste with the aim of increasing the process capacity as well as the product quality. After optimizations, including in the field of methanation, SUEZ concentrates on the issue of efficiency and compliance with regulatory standards for compost production. For this purpose Amétyst uses RHEWUM screening machines type WA with feeders type AV at the end of the separation process. After the organic waste has completed various procedural steps and has been treated for 2 to 3 days in a bioreactor, the fraction of 0- 20 mm is separated from it by using four screening machines with direct excitation of the screen cloth (see video from minute 1:10). These screening plants have been specially developed for the integration into the production

Employees of RHEWUM collected donations for a good cause during the pre-Christmas season As in past years, the employees of RHEWUM collected donations for a good cause during the pre-Christmas season and thereby help to ensure that children from low-income families at the local schools in Remscheid get a healthy breakfast and lunch. Since 2006, the association known as “Möhrchen” (=baby carrot) has supported children at primary and secondary schools as well as schools for children with learning difficulties whose parents cannot afford their meals. By offering a balanced breakfast and warm lunch, these children have the opportunity to attend the classes with much more concentration and power. This year, “Mörchen” became 11 years old and can be proud of having enabled 1 million meals to children in Remscheid. Like in the year 2016, RHEWUM’s staff has collected eagerly for this local association. The donation has been doubled by the management so that a sum of 2,000 euros can be given to the children at Remscheid’s schools.

In addition to the durable unbalanced motors that are normally used at RHEWUM, the company now offers two special series. These two series were especially optimized for use in their respective fields. The first one is a high frequency drive (type HF) that can be operated with a power frequency of 100 Hz instead of 50 Hz or 60 Hz whereas the other is a long-life drive (type LL) that has a significantly higher service life than common unbalanced motors. With the special design, now patent-pending, the drives and bearings “keep a cool head”. In comparison to other drives, the RHEWUM long-life motors have a reduced temperature of up to 10 degrees Celsius by contrast with the environment. What is the benefit? A lower temperature of the bearing automatically increases its service life which has also a positive effect on the life cycle of the entire drive. Due to the use of usual RHEWUM foot dimensions, the RHEWUM long-life drives are absolutely equivalent to their counterparts. Scien

Article by Sigurd Schuetz - RHEWUM GmbH The requirements of the premixed plaster industry for the production of up to five sharp-sized fractions mean dealing with various processes in order to meet the needs of this difficult to screen material. The requirements of the premixed plaster industry for the production of up to five sharp-sized fractions mean dealing with various processes in order to meet the needs of this difficult to screen material. An Italian manufacturer of different grain sizes for well-known producers of premixed plasters approached RHEWUM with the objective of sizing 80 t/h crushed dolomite flour into the fractions 10.0 mm, 3.5 mm, 2.25 mm, 1.6 mm and 1.0 mm. The moisture and the clay content cause trouble in the processing. Tests showed that screening cloth of applicated linear motion vibrating screens blinded immediately (see figure below). The optimal solution in this case was a combination of different processes: The feed material is separated at 10.0 mm in the feed section on co-vibrating

When sieving moist and adhesive materials, screen cloths can easily get clogged. Our electrical screen cloth heater allows heating the surface to over 100 degrees Celsius. This temperature keeps the screen cloths open despite of moist fine materials. These dry onto the cloth and spall due to the extremely strong vibration of our electromagnetic drives. That way the screening surface remains open! This technology is particularly suitable for moist and adhesive materials such as fertilizers or naturally moist sands. The screen cloth heater can be used for all static machine types, but only with stainless steel meshes. In order to adjust the energy requirement, the heater can be manually controlled. The isolation of the side walls and the automated monitoring of the temperature ensure the safety of your business operation. Plug connectors allow a fast and easy exchange of the screen cloth.

RHEWUM high efficiency screening machines for sugar RHEWUM was faced with this task by the Indian Cane Power Limited (ICPL). For this purpose a screening plant with a combination of the type RHEWUM WA and RHEWUM WAU was delivered to India. The fed 300 tons per hour are precisely classified by only two RHEWUM sieves into the five required fractions of 1.80 mm/ 1.20 mm/ 0.80 mm/ 0.45 mm and 0.25 mm. The electromagnetic drive that is specific to RHEWUM is particularly used for the fine separations of less than 1 mm, whereas the low-maintenance WAU drive is used for separating fractions of 1.80 mm and 1.20 mm. The screening plant is loaded by two SV feeders that each evenly distribute 150 tons of cane sugar per hour on the post-positioned screening machine. The discerning customer chose a high quality stainless steel design. The ICPL was just founded in 2002 and has been growing since then from year to year thanks to the close collaboration with the local farmers, who provide the required sugar cane seeds. The plant

Control screening for ensuring the product quality of fertilizers Mixed fertilizers such as NPK or LAN (Limestone Ammonium Fertilizer), which is called CAN (Calcium Ammonium Fertilizer) in Europe, are subject to changes of the grain distribution caused by transportation or temporary storage after granulation. Due to the hygroscopic behavior of the fertilizer, agglomerates (lumps) are formed during storage. Whereas the transport produces abrasion that appears as undesired dust in the packaging unit. Both lead to difficulties in spreading the fertilizer. The end customer recognizes these unfavorable product features immediately with the unaided eye without performing measurement of the grain distribution. However, the particle size distribution is a guaranteed quality characteristic of the product. In order to avoid expensive claims, more and more fertilizer producers start installing a so-called control sifting directly before loading or packaging. This ensures that the guaranteed product quality is given at the time of handing

New feature, new name, well-tried benefits The technical RHEWUM app has been renamed to „RHEWUM ScreenSpector” and offers operators of screening machines now the possibility to apply their own template for the SizeChecker feature. Already since 2014, the RHEWUM app supports its users during maintenance of their screening machines- simple, fast and free of charge. The app consists of the four following functions: 1. VibFlash The smartphone’s flash light generates a stroboscopic light with a predetermined frequency and thereby visually records and investigates the vibrations of the respective plant. This feature is only available for iOS so far. 2. MeshConverter The MeshConverter allows to convert screening mesh widths from S.I. units into US measurement units. Furthermore, this feature can convert mesh sizes into screen cuts. 3. VibSonic This feature uses the integrated microphone and records noise emissions of individual machines or plants.

Using the newly developed flow sensor it is possible in harsh production environments, to measure th The FlowChecker combines low investment costs with a simple operation and quick readiness for use. Special attention was paid to the ease of operation and calibration of the system, so it can be independently carried out by the customer, without support of RHEWUM. The measuring system FlowChecker consists of a highly developed 3D TOF sensor, an industrial PC and analyzing software, which calculates the mass flow or volume flow of the determined data. Additionally, the output (volume or quantity) will be calculated and displayed. The result will be logged electronically. For embedding in existing systems, the FlowChecker is equipped with a network connection (TCP-IP) and an interface to OPC servers.

Screens and other vibrating machines are often integrated in production processes at a central point. Regarding this positioning any machine damage leads to production losses and therewith financial losses which is absolutely not acceptable. So the trouble-free operation of this machines is a must. At this point the RHEWUM ScreenGuard has it´s place! The RHEWUM ScreenGuard monitors the vibrating behaviour of vibrating machines continouusly in order to keep it from critical operation conditions. The acceleration is measured by sensors and compared with given values. The ScreenGuard shows the acceleration g, the speed in cm/s, the amplitude in mm and the frequency in Hz on a display. The system can be used as on-site-monitoring to just show the operation status. It can also be integrated in a superordinated system and then be used to give a signal at critical operation status and/or to stop the vibrating machine.

BMA (Braunschweigische Maschinenbauanstalt AG) placed an order with RHEWUM for construction, manufacturing and delivery of 3 vibrating conveyors type RHEWUM RIU for the Nile Sugar Project. The sugar production named Nile Sugar Company located on the area of Nobaria will include a beet sugar refinery with a processing capacity of 8.000 t/d and a raw sugar refinery with a processing capacity of 1.200 t/d. The very special feature of this project are the dimensions of the throughs with two times 10.650 mm and once 9.000 resp. the overall length of the whole haulway of 30 m to be done by only three throughs.
