Spittal/Drau (Austria), June 2022. The high-precision shredder series Komet is the gold standard in secondary shredding – an even more productive and maintenance-friendly version was showcased at IFAT 2022. The German TÜV-certified Lindner Fire Prevention System protects against potential sources of fire, primarily caused by rechargeable batteries that are still present in today’s material steams.
For almost twenty years, Komet series shredders have been converting non-recyclable material into highly calorific solid recovered fuels worldwide. The engineering, robustness, precision, cost-effectiveness, and high throughput of the Komet series models have made them what they are today – the benchmark in secondary shredding. Yet over time, the demands on the waste and recycling industry have changed due to a lack of qualified workers, soaring energy costs, and a need for higher productivity.
The new Komet Series 3 takes on these challenges and took centerstage at IFAT 2022 with efficient solutions such as the automatic belt tensioning system (ATB), a dust-proof drive unit and new software. While new software features increase productivity, the ATB ensures constant and, therefore, optimal power transmission. In addition, compressed air protects the drive unit from contamination, which significantly reduces the maintenance required. An additional benefit: the new and improved control panel is intuitive and incredibly easy to use.
Our loyal clients have accumulated over 20 years of experience with our secondary shredders. We took this wealth of experience and — this was extremely important to us — incorporated it into our product development,' explains Stefan Scheiflinger-Ehrenwerth, Head of Product Management at Lindner. 'From our point of view, that's the best way to optimise machines in line with clients' needs.'
