PTM Walking Floor 9 platforms system with hydraulic power pack with two pumps for waste sorting plant

Nine stationary moving floor systems have been installed at a newly commissioned municipal waste management plant in southern Poland.

These systems, were placed underneath the sorting cubicles.The size of the moving floor systems was designed for the size of specific cubicles.

Boxes with moving floors installed will be buffered with segregated waste of various fractions, including: foil mix, PET, ferrous and non-ferrous scrap, 3d ballast, PP, PS, paper.  The collected material, is then fed via moving floors to a conveyor belt, which is used to transport it to the downstream processing line.

The systems are driven by a single hydraulic power pack with two independent pumps, so the operator can start the operation of two, freely selected moving floors at the same time.The moving floor systems are ideal for working with any type of bulk cargo.Hydraulically controlled systems feature high reliability and virtually maintenance-free operation, which is crucial to the proper and uninterrupted operation of any plant.

Stationary moving floor systems, which have been used successfully around the world for many years, are also gaining popularity in Poland.The first such systems were installed by PTM Polska as early as 2011 in a municipal plant in Warsaw.Since then, the Lodz-based company has already installed dozens of “walking floor” systems in various plants across the country.The main customers are companies from the municipal sector, but also from the timber and agricultural industries. The systems are increasingly recognized by users, which translates into a significant increase in interest and a greater number of implementations in recent times.
