In the 80s, Westeria manufactured windsifters from a combination of wood and steel, as the company’s core expertise then was in wood processing. These early models were robust and simple yet achieved optimal separation of light and heavy materials. With the development of its first windsifters and entry into conveyor system construction, Westeria increasingly turned its focus to the recycling industry — today, its main field. 🔜 𝟯𝟲 𝗬𝗲𝗮𝗿𝘀 𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗲r: After decades of innovation, the new AirStar evolution elevates windsifting technology to a new level! Modern design, high efficiency, and user-friendly operation – the AirStar evolution brings together the best of Westeria’s decades of expertise. ▪️ Exceptional sorting results through an enlarged nozzle and newly designed extraction hood that optimizes the removal of light materials ▪️ Process exhaust reduction by up to 2/3, lowering energy consumption and benefiting the environment ▪️ New user interface for intuitive operation and high-end automation 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗿𝗲𝘀𝘂𝗹𝘁 𝗶𝘀 𝗿𝗲𝗺𝗮𝗿𝗸𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗲: continuous optimization and cutting-edge technology keep Westeria at the forefront of windsifting technology, setting new industry standards. Our passion for transformation and improvement shapes the AirStar evolution – the windsifter that redefines the benchmark! #westeria #throwbackthursday #windsifting #airstarevolution #recyclingindustry #innovation

At DeCourcyAlexander, we’re constantly exploring how the latest innovations can drive the decarbonisation of the maritime industry. Fuel cells are one such technology that could significantly reshape marine shipping for a cleaner future. I’m looking forward to learning more about this during #MaritimeUKWeek2024, where experts like nicholas abson and Isabela Tatu will dive into the role of fuel cells in transforming maritime operations. This is an exciting time for the sector as we push towards a sustainable future. At De Courcy Alexander (DCA), we’re committed to staying at the forefront of these developments, engaging with new technologies and collaborating with key players in the industry. If you’re also working in maritime decarbonisation, I’d love to connect and exchange ideas on how we can collectively move the industry forward. Let’s build a greener future together! 🌍⚓ #Decarbonisation #FuelCells #MaritimeInnovation #CleanTech #Sustainability #MarineShipping #DCA #MaritimeUKWeek

Register as a participant now! On April 23, the #LightweightingSummit will take place alongside the Hannover Messe. The topic of "Lightweight construction as a transformation technology for the resource transition" also comes up at #FraunhoferIMWS. This is why Sven Wüstenhagen is presenting the #LightLog research project in a pitch: ➡️ Development and optimization of large load carriers ➡️ ideal for setting up and operating efficient transport systems ➡️ plenty of storage space with low dead weight and high load capacity ✅ The project is funded the Bundesministerium für Wirtschaft und Klimaschutz (Federal Ministry of Economic Affairs and Climate Action). 👉 The research activities at the Fraunhofer IMWS in the field of #polymerapplications are diverse: lightweight construction applications and sustainable materials and processes are among the core competencies.
