Case Study: ÖBB-Technische Services GmbH reduces steel swarf volume with UNTHA S25

ÖBB-Technische Services GmbH reduces steel swarf volume by up to 90% with UNTHA

ÖBB-Technische Services GmbH, responsible for rail vehicle management throughout Europe, was generating approximately 23 tonnes of steel chips annually from its maintenance operations. The company needed a compact and robust shredder from UNTHA to reduce the volume of this material for more efficient transport and recycling, requiring integration into their existing plant control system.

UNTHA implemented its compact S25 twin-shaft shredder to handle the steel swarf. The solution reduced the material volume by up to 90%, enabling space-saving storage and transport. The UNTHA shredder's direct drive and slow-speed operation also made it energy-efficient while producing low noise and dust emissions.
