SP Industries single-cylinder Precrusher Series
Hopkins, Michigan-based SP Industries has introduced the PC-3001, PC-4001 and PC-6001 Precrusher Series for manufacturing and processing facilities that don’t require the heavy-duty compacting equipment the company offers. This new series features the same footprint and processing controls as the company’s max-duty heavy-industrial models with a more economical single-cylinder design tailored to lighter-duty waste streams with lower compaction force requirements, SP says. The series:
- is designed for lower-volume industrial and smaller product destruction applications
- can program up to eight precrush cycles to enable maximum breakdown of materials that are difficult to compact
- is offered with 3-, 4- or 6-cubic-yard capacities
- can be operated in either precrusher or compactor-only mode

Herbold HVT series centrifugal dryers
HVT series centrifugal dryers from Herbold USA, Smithfield, Rhode Island, provide energy-saving drying of regrind, especially hollow bodies, polyethylene terephthalate (PET) bottles, polyolefins and other plastics, the company says. The HVT series:
- features a vertical rotor shaft, which ensures longer dwell time in the drying chamber
- operates on the principle of centrifugal drying, where material is accelerated against a screened stator surface and simultaneously transported from bottom to top by rotor paddles
- is fed via a horizontal drainage screw, which eliminates most of the surface moisture before material enters the dryer
