We develop, produce, and install all our machines and carry out all our projects with our own staff, allowing us to provide flexible and affordable tailor-made solutions for our clients. First established in 1921, we have acquired a rich store of knowledge and experience in the agricultural and industrial sectors, and we are now a leading player in production processes for the feed, food, brewery, and bulk industrial sectors. Industries Poeth develops, produces, erects and commissions, sophisticated machinery and production lines for various processes in solids handling. Our knowledge and experience is mainly based on agri-industrial processes, since 1921. Applications of Poeth machinery and process experience are found in food processing as well as f.i. in recycling of bio-mass. An important product is an extensive program of industrial dust-filters. Products Technological Solutions for Solids Processing: Our product range includes high-quality technology and service solutions for the handling, conveying and processing in different industries. We consult and support our clients during decisions on important investments with knowhow and experience. With our advanced filter program we help you to solve emission problems. Experience is available for a wide range of dusty products.

Poeth recently realized for the company P.C. van Tuijl Kesteren B.V. a complete mixing line for calf milk replacer powders and feed concentrates. In particular, residue-freeness / carry-over was one of the most important spearheads. The total project includes: - intake of raw materials from big bags and bagged goods - pre-breaking of lumpy powders - control sieving + metal detection - fine grinder - Nauta mixer - control sieving - transport to silos and/or packaging - big-bag filling line with rails (settlement of airy powders) A wide range of powders are pre-tested on the Z-Conveyor in the Poeth test facility. Extensive testing has been carried out to determine which configuration is most suitable for this diverse range of products such as fro example: - high fat content (such as e.g. fat cores) - very fine aqueous powders - abrasive powders - mixtures that are sensitive to separation The complete engineering of the new factory was provided by John Swinkels (Project Engineer - Poeth) in close collaboration with van Tuijl. Various parts were purchased by the client himself, the rest was supplied

The new Z-Bulkloader from Poeth enables dust-free unloading of big bags and sacks without unnecessary loss of raw material. The requirements for unloading raw materials in bulk trucks are increasing. To respond to this demand, Poeth has developed the new Z-Bulkloader with the following advantages: * Virtually no product carry-over or contamination * 85% less energy consumption * Fully ATEX safe (< 1 m/s) * Compact design => no platform required * Lower purchase costs * Unloading dust-free Big-Bags and bags The principle is based on the Z-Conveyor chain transport. The Z-Conveyor has really taken off in recent years and is used in a wide variety of industries. Two Z-Conveyors are available to test the most diverse products in Poeth’s test room. Unloading big-bags and bags dust-free The big-bag unloading station is equipped with a big-bag outlet hose clamping system, which guarantees a tight connection of the big-bag hose. The optionally integrated bag dust cabin is equipped with extraction and ensures an ergonomic and dust-free discharge of bagged goods. Because

Driessen Food Extrusion is very satisfied with the Poeth Z-belt Conveyor, used for sensitive, abrasive products in the new Food Extrusion filling line. Driessen Food Extrusion is very satisfied with the result of the new Food Extrusion filling line. Extrudates are sensitive, abrasive products that, for example, serve as the basis for the crispy exterior of oven croquettes. Gravimetric feeders feed the raw material for the crispy end product to an extruder. The extrudate is dried and then broken up, after which the fragile, abrasive product is packed into large bags via a vibrating screen. Poeth Solids Processing designed and installed a custom big bag unload station and Easy Clean Z-belt to then move the product from the big bags to a packaging machine. In view of the limited height of the building (to just below the roof), assembly was a critical point. Big bag unloading system The hygienically designed big bag unloading system offers space for two bulk bags that can be emptied alternately. Both unloading positions are equipped with a vibrating base and a pneumatic docking system. This makes it possible to connect

In mechanical conveyors high speeds are unwanted because of explosion risk. Poeth’s Z- en C-conveyors are ATEX safe because of reduced speeds. Many powder conveying systems are based on speeds higher than 1 m/s. In many cases, this means that additional Atex provisions must be made. This is not necessary with the Z and C-Conveyor. The conveyor runs at a speed smaller than 0.5 m/s and is certified for internal ATEX application. Explosion safety assessed with scorecard “very good” Poeth Solids Processing supplied the Z-Conveyor to Algiers as part of its complete turn-key project. In addition to the transport system, Poeth also supplied the silo building with a storage capacity of 5700 m³, the Sea Container Tilting Unit, inline weighers, cleaning systems, spark detection and the electronic control and cabling. The externally designated ATEX certification body assessed the explosion safety in Algiers with a “scorecard 4 - very good”. Poeth will soon be building similar installations for the same brewer in Nigeria and Cambodia.

Recycling industrie Poeth recently delivered various projects for Plastic Recycling. In many cases, a Z-Conveyor as well as C-Conveyor was chosen as between transport. The big advantage of this setup: - no unnecessary dust development (angel hair) - very low noise emission compared to air transport - very low energy consumption (approx. 1.75 kW, 8 tons / hour, 6 m height, 2 horizontal - less other costs for control / cabling. - virtually no product contamination - low investment costs - virtually no maintenance costs The machine is well suited for use in circular processes, and is also suitable for powdered products, even for very fine products such as Carbon Black, or very aqueous milk powders such as finely ground soy. In terms of Atex, no additional provisions are necessary, due to, among other things, a low speed of carbon black - food recycling (bread, potato chips, carrot granulate etc) - circuit boards recycling - metal powders from residual flows Two test setups are ready at
