The electronic drum drive of Cribus 5000 E minimizes energy, wear, and maintenance costs, and makes the big Cribus one of the most economical machines in its class.
The Cribus is a mobile drum screen for the highest demands. Numerous innovations create a machine with the highest level of functionality and cost-effectiveness and at the same time set new benchmarks.
The drive system represents the foundation for the extremely high degree of cost-effectiveness – everything on the Cribus is driven electrically, from the hopper to the discharge belts. This minimizes the energy, wear and servicing costs of the whole machine, supported by the direct “Wheelgrip” drum drive.
The Komptech Cribus is a large, mobile trommel screen designed for high-throughput material screening, particularly with smaller screen holes. It is notable for its all-electric drive system, which reduces energy consumption, wear, and operating costs compared to hydraulic systems.
What Goes In: Put the Cribus 5000 trommel screen to work on compost, mulch, soils, C&D fines, MSW, and food waste.
What It Does: Keep material loaders busy with a large, load-dependent infeed hopper, and plenty of effective screening area.
What Comes Out: Smooth and steady screened separation and output of large waste fractions.

ADVANTAGES
Hybrid Technology
Up to 75% lower energy consumption and overall 25% reduction in operating costs compared to diesel hydraulic drives.
Little Holes, Big Performance
With small hole sizes of 3/4in, in particular, the length of the drum and its effective screening area become crucial factors in performance.
Spacious Hopper
On the all-electric version without diesel auxiliary generator, the space saved results in a hopper volume over 10.5 yd³.
Highly Mobile
Despite its impressive size, the Cribus is easy to manoeuvre as a semi-trailer. Despite its size, the Cribus 5000 is highly mobile as a semi-trailer unit. It features an expansive load-dependent hopper and offers easy maintenance with simple drum and conveyor belt replacement.
High screening capacity
With a drum length of 25′3′′25 prime 3 double prime 25′3′′ (7.7 m7.7 space m7.7 𝑚) and a large screening area, it processes large volumes of material efficiently, even with small screen holes.
Electric drive
The fully electric drive system, which can be powered by the grid or an optional diesel generator, offers significant savings in energy, wear, and maintenance costs.
User-friendly operation
It includes a large, load-dependent hopper and features like automatic start-up and fully electronic control for ease of use. Fully electronic, configurable graphic operating panel, automated starting and electric brush adjustment, plus optional hopper sensor control, and pre-screen.
Efficient drive system
The drum is driven by a friction wheel “all-wheel drive” system, which minimizes wear by eliminating chains and cogwheels.
Versatile applications
The machine is suitable for a wide range of materials, including compost, mulch, soil, construction and demolition fines, and municipal solid waste.
Economical operation
The electric drive and low-wear design contribute to lower operating costs per cubic meter of processed material.

KEY Benefits
• Sustainability: By effectively separating materials, the Cribus 5000 facilitates the recovery of valuable resources, supporting the circular economy and reducing landfill waste.
• Cost Efficiency: The electric drive and low-wear components make it one of the most economical machines in its class in terms of operating costs.
• User-Friendly Design: It features smart automation, intuitive controls, and options for remote monitoring for easier operation and management.
