Screen Separation Equipment
Providing screens that deliver high throughput and low maintenance, Wastech with its equipment Partner the CP Group, leads the industry with the most efficient screening technology for fractioning 2D and 3D materials and separating fines from recyclables.
CP’s R&D has developed a true non-wrapping design which is the newest technology in the industry. The newest design CP Anti Wrapping Screen uses High-Agitation discs and extra-large rotor shafts mitigate wrapping and reduce jamming; whilst the CP Auger has a series of cantilevered steel augers that do not wrap or jam, making the screens extremely low-maintenance and cost effective.
CPScreen
- Automatically separates small fibres from containers, and 2D from 3D material.
- Small screen openings minimise loss of small fibres to container line and maximise capture rate.
Low maintenance, belt-driven screen that is resistant to jamming and wrapping. - High throughput.
NEWScreen
- Automatically separates large fibre (ONP) from mixed paper, containers and debris.
Patented rubber finger discs accurately size material for increased recovery rates. - Lowest disc cost per tonne of material.
- Shaft and disc designed for reduced wrapping.
High throughput.
OCCScreen
- Effectively separates old corrugated cardboard (OCC) from other mixed fibre, containers and debris.
- Discs specially engineered to have consistent spacing at all points to prevent jamming.
- Aggressive rubber discs separate both by size and rigidity, allowing the screen to separate rigid chip from similar sized “soft” newspaper.
Glass Breaker Screen
- Breaks and separates glass and fines
- Lowest operating-cost screen with the longest lasting discs in the industry.
- Opening size between discs do not change with time; minimises loss of aluminum and PET.
- Minimises contaminants to dramatically improve marketability of other materials.
Scalping Screen
- Size-separates material, allowing separation machines downstream of sizing screen to work more efficiently – small containers can be routed past ONP screens or large containers can be routed past eddy current separator.
- Low maintenance screen with long lasting steel discs.
CP Auger Screen
- Accurate separation of newsprint and large fibre from the material stream.
- Oversized shaft circumference mitigates wrapping.
- Simple design keeps total number of discs and use of rubber to a minimum.
- Non-pinching motion eliminates jamming.
- High amplitude design agitates containers away from paper.
- Designed for safety: Foolproof lock out tag out mechanism with larger access door.
- One-bolt discs are easy to change

- Simple design keeps total number of discs and use of rubber to a minimum
- Non-pinching motion eliminates jamming
- High amplitude design agitates containers away from paper
- Foolproof lock out tag out mechanism with larger access door
- One-bolt discs are easy to change
