STEINERT, of which BMRA member, Magnetic Separations Ltd, is the sole UK agent, has opened its new test and development centre in Pulheim, Germany.

The metal sorting line of the new test and development centre will officially go into operation during an online event that STEINERT is holding on 22 September 2020.

The new building trebles the company’s its testing capacity, allowing it to be more flexible in responding to customer demands.

By the end of the year, STEINERT will introduce additional sorting lines for waste recycling so that it can better achieve its aspiration of ‘test before you buy’ and respond with more accuracy to the aims of extraction, purity and profitability for each sorting task.

Peter Funke, CEO of the STEINERT Group said, “The processing sequence deployed in the sorting systems is the same as that used in a real industrial plant. We are delighted that even more customers can try out our technology, from magnetic separators to sensor-based sorting systems, such as x-ray transmission, x-ray fluorescence and near-infrared (NIR).”

STEINERT has specialised in building machines that allow its customers to look for, find and sort resources. The machines can be justifiably called “Resource Search Engines”. They satisfy increasingly versatile sorting tasks, not only helping STEINERT’s customers to sell their sorted products for more profit, but also helping to keep resources in circulation.

The virtual opening of the test centre will take place on 22 September at 10 a.m. CET in a 90-minute live show. The same show in English language will be held at 4 p.m BST. The event will focus on providing an overview of the sorting technology installed and allowing guests to participate in live question and answer sessions. A presenter will interview STEINERT experts

After the live-show, there will be an Online-Seminar on “How to separate non-ferrous metals and sorting heavy metals to the maximum”. The Online-Seminar will answer questions about:

• separating NF-metals from shredder processes and incineration bottom ash
• improving aluminium quality
• separating heavy metals in individual fractions
