Quality, in more ways than one
The first work site is at the Mannheim harbour, one of the most important inland ports in Europe. We visit the recycling yard of BRN – Baustoffe Rhein-Neckar GmbH. Owner and manager Thomas Lück takes the time to show us the Nemus 2700 he purchased new in November 2016. At its own site the company process mineral raw materials from a wide variety of sources. Lück says that quality is the first priority: “All demolition is not the same. I prefer to call it selective deconstruction, because the better sorted the materials are when we get them, the better we can process them into high-quality final products.”
“The Nemus has run over 800 hours without any major problems,” says Lück. The screen is used with 10 mm and 35 mm screens for presorted demolition waste and excavated soil to get cable bedding sand, substrate and topsoil. Thomas Lück explains the goal: “What we focus on making is qualified and precisely defined earth and substrate mixes, such as substrates for athletic turf or tree planting. We also use the Nemus to mix in composts. In everything we do, we have high quality in mind. How did he come to choose the Nemus?“ The good reputation of Komptech was a very important criterion, as it also means a lot of experience in technical implementation. And I really liked the size of the screening area. That plus the drum bearings, problem-free drive and especially the simple drum change drove the ultimate decision. Ease of maintenance, extensive standard equipment, well thought-out solutions like the lubrication system and easy cleaning – our experience with the screener has confirmed the rightness of the decision.”
