Efficient sorting, separation and safe and secure storage

High-quality recycling of collected waste is a critical step in the sustainable use of resources. A key process is the careful sorting, separation, storage and transportation of waste to recover valuable secondary raw materials. Purity is key to the successful use of secondary resources.
Our specialized systems and technologies enable efficient and accurate sorting of different waste streams. We ensure that recyclable materials such as metals, plastics and glass are collected separately and processed for recycling. In doing so, we take into account not only economic aspects, but also environmentally friendly processes to minimize the impact on the environment.

  • Automatic baling
  • Bale quality control (dimension, density, number of straps)
  • Sorting stacking (21 different fractions)
  • Automatic transfer to storage position
  • Automatic transport to track loading position (two loading platforms)
  • Controlled and organized by AUTEFA warehouse management system
  • Redundant Oracle data base 

Environmentally friendly bale storage

AUTEFA Solutions offers an innovative storage solution specifically for recycling and waste bales. The patented block storage system ensures safety and efficiency, while integration into a hall provides protection from the weather. This reduces leaching of contaminants and minimizes the release of material residues and microplastics. Indoor storage also allows better control of the storage environment, which improves bale quality and shelf life and minimizes storage losses.

Minimize environmental impact

  • the bales are clearly identifiable at all times thanks to the labeling
  • no losses due to incorrect handling of the bales
  • only inspected bales enter the warehouse, no losses due to e.g. burst bales
  • 8 bales can be moved around the warehouse with one forklift truck, saving energy, fuel and lubricants. 
  • as all drives in the warehouse are powered by electric motors, they can be supplied with CO2-neutral electricity. We recommend a PV system on the hall roof. 
  • trouble-free operation thanks to minimal manpower and minimized risk of accidents to staff, no need to enter the warehouse during normal operation
  • fast, efficient truck loading
  • guaranteed single-variety delivery of recycled raw materials to the processor, no additional trips required to compensate for picking errors
  • reduction of microplastics in waste water and air

Channel Baler CB(H) 400/750

In order to store recycling materials safely and to be able to process them according to type, it is common practice to compress them into bales. This process not only enables efficient handling, but also prepares the materials for the next step in the recycling cycle. With the CB(H) 400/750 horizontal channel baling press, AUTEFA Solutions offers the optimal solution for perfect bales.

Depending on the requirements, the CB(H) 400/750 is available with two different baling forces. With a maximum throughput of up to 2000 kg/h, bales weighing up to 600 kg can be produced, depending on the material and bale size. The channel baler is versatile as it can compact a wide range of materials including cardboard, paper, plastic and textile recyclables.

The future of waste management: digitalization and smart solutions

Waste management and logistics have already evolved to meet the increasing demands for sustainability, efficiency and resource conservation. An important step in this direction is the increased transition to a circular economy in which waste is seen as a valuable resource. Progressive digitalization can optimize processes such as automatic waste sorting. Smart sensors and IoT devices play a crucial role in smart waste management by collecting real-time data on fill levels and waste composition, enabling more accurate planning and more efficient use of resources.

Block storage systems with the BSR Bale Storage Robot

Compared to manual or semi-automated systems, an automated warehouse management system offers many advantages.

AUTEFA Solutions' block storage system automates all warehouse processes such as storage and retrieval, order picking and inventory tracking. This leads to a significant increase in efficiency as human intervention is minimized and tasks can be performed faster and more accurately.

The block storage system from AUTEFA Solutions reduces labor costs as fewer personnel are required for the same work. This increases labor productivity and lowers personnel costs.

The block storage system from AUTEFA Solutions enables precise inventory tracking in real time. This gives companies a precise overview of their stock levels, resulting in improved inventory control and management. Overstocking and bottlenecks can be effectively avoided.

The block storage system from AUTEFA Solutions optimizes the use of storage locations through automated allocation and management of storage locations. This function enables efficient use of available storage space and significantly reduces idle times.

The block storage system from AUTEFA Solutions ensures faster and more accurate order processing. The automated picking system enables fast and accurate order processing, resulting in shorter delivery times and ultimately greater customer satisfaction.

AUTEFA Solutions' block storage system minimizes human error and increases accuracy in inventory tracking, picking and shipping.
