It is pulled by a tractor, in practice usually a wheel loader, to the respective compost heap and positioned there.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Thanks to its simple design and flexible positioning, it is particularly suitable for systems in which membranes have to be regularly picked up and put down again.<\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Positioning at the compost heap<\/h2>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The TM is placed in front of the compost heap by the wheel loader using a towing device. After parking, support legs are extended so that the machine is stable in front of the windrow. <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For covering, the membrane is pulled over the rotting material using a cable pull and a deflection pulley on the rear wall. To wind up, the membrane is then attached to the winding drum and rolled up in a controlled manner. <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After the wrapping process, the machine can be picked up again by the tractor and transported to the next rental.<\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Electric operation instead of combustion engine<\/h2>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The TM is powered by a battery that can be charged via a 230-volt connection. One battery charge is usually sufficient for around ten wrapping processes. <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In contrast to many comparable solutions, ACT relies on a battery-powered hydraulic system instead of a petrol engine. This results in significantly less noise during system operation and no local combustion emissions. <\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Robust construction for outdoor use<\/h2>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The wrapping devices are manufactured by <a href=\"https:\/\/wiro-metallbau.de\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Wiro Metallbau GmbH<\/a> in Germany. The construction is mainly made of steel and is designed for long-term use under the conditions of a composting plant. <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The appliances can be left outside without any problems and do not require any additional weather protection.<\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Simple and reliable solution for many systems<\/h2>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The TM is a robust yet uncomplicated solution for handling membrane covers. The combination of a retractable design, electrical operation and stable construction means that the device can be used flexibly on different systems. <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Towed Machine offers a practical and economical way of handling membrane covers efficiently, particularly for plants that already work with wheel loaders and do not require a fully automated winding solution.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Text by Jonas Schmidt<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Functional principle of the wrapping device The TM (Towed Machine) is a variant of the ACT winder and is designed as a retractable system for membrane covers.
