TUBUS damping for more sustainable sorting
A sorting plant for copper from Wieland-Werke AG is used to separate the metal-dross mixture. During the separation process the metal runners with a mass of up to 8, 818.49 lb land in a steel collecting structure. With a drop height of 90,5 inch and a cycle of 8 impacts per hour, the entire structure was permanently overstressed and required frequent maintenance. After the integration of 20 TUBUS Safety Dampers type TC137-90, which are mounted in series under the fall arrest structure, the system is now reliably protected. The 20 TUBUS absorb the forces evenly and also reduce noise.
