Stonefex
POA
The stone separator Stonefex removes stones and inert items reliably and very effectively from biomass fuels. A patented system of pressure and suction blowers generates exactly the right air flow in the expansion chamber to remove stones and heavy objects from wood.
The outcome is a fuel nearly free of stones which can be sold at a higher price. Furthermore fractions that were previously unusable due to their high amount of stones can now be processed into fuel.
The Komptech Stonefex is a mobile stone separator that uses patented air separation technology to remove up to 95% of stones and inert materials from biomass fuels. Key specifications include a throughput of up to 100 m³/hr (~130 yd³/hr) and a weight of approximately 9-10 tons.
Key Features
- Mobility: The machine is mobile, available in trailer or hook lift configurations, allowing it to be easily transported and integrated with existing screening machines.
- Operation: It operates using a patented system of pressure and suction blowers, which generates an precise airflow within the expansion chamber to achieve effective separation without water.
- Adjustable Parameters: Easily adjustable separation parameters provide a wide range of applications and allow optimal adaptation to different materials and requirements.
- Fuel Quality: By removing stone contaminants, the Stonefex improves the quality of biomass fuels, which increases their market value.
- Optional Equipment: Available options include conveyor extensions, adjustable belt speed, electro-hydraulically folding discharge conveyors, central lubrication, and remote control.
Advantages
- Effective Separating System
A system of pressure and suction blowers separates the material into a stone fraction and a cleaned usable fraction.
- Convenient Maintenance Access
Large access panels to the separation chamber, the motor compartment, and the swivelling suction blower make for simple maintenance.
- High Throughput Performance
The hybrid drive system and available diesel generator ensures low energy and maintenance costs.
