PAPER AND DUST PROS, INC. www.paperanddustpros.com

We custom design, install and service air conveyed scrap and dust collection systems. Our unique APS® is smaller, lighter, and more reliable than current cyclones. Contact us to learn how the APS® System can enhance your operation.

PROFERO SYSTEMS, INC. www.ProferoSystems.com

Profero Systems the leader in double facer heating and traction section conversions along with other performance enhancing products. Featuring products from Contact Bars and Compensating Rolls to New Glue Machines and Double Facers.

The machine connects to a Bobst 145 Mastercut Die Cutter. The shredded material and dust laden air is then pneumatically conveyed in a negative pressure, high ef- ficiency system to two PMA material separators over top of two Maren ProPAK A160 horizontal auto-tie extrusion balers. From there, the shredded material drops into the balers where it is compressed into direct-to-mill size bales for optimized and cost-effective recycling. The new system helps minimize manpower through au- tomated processes and supports environmental sustain- ability through efficient recycling practices. The negative pressure system design provides health and safety bene- fits including reduced noise and dust reduction. Philipp Koch, Höcker Polytechnik GmbH Sales/Project Manag- er, left, and John Jurk, VP of Kernic Systems, attend the com- missioning of a trim extraction system in upstate New York.
