Modular platform for primary separation of MSW, C&D waste and commercial/industrial waste. Structure in rolled carbon steel beams, anti-slip checkered plate flooring, NR12 guardrails. Integrates with shredders, balers, magnetic separators and screens.
Applications
- Municipal MSW sorting plants (compliance with PNRS)
- Waste picker cooperatives (productivity up to 3x higher than ground-level sorting)
- C&D waste sorting centers before concrete and masonry crushing
- RDF plants: recyclable separation before reject shredding
- Commercial and industrial (C&I) waste sorting
- Pre-sorting before shredders: removal of metals, stones and large objects

Integrates with Trommel screen, ballistic separator, densimetric separator and baler line.
Technical Differentiators
- Rolled beam structure (not adapted container) — sized for industrial loads and conveyor vibration
- Checkered plate flooring 4.7 mm, minimum 200 mm thickness for rigidity and vibration absorption
- Standard-compliant stairs with handrails and anti-slip treads (NBR 14718)
- NR12 guardrails along full length: 1.20 m height, 0.20 m toe board, intermediate rail
- Native integration with full Jaguar line (shredders, balers, separators, screens)
- Modular and expandable: new positions, cabins and exhaust without reconstruction
Recommended MSW Flow
- Reception — 20-40 m3 hopper for continuous operation
- Bag opener — automatic MSW bag opening
- Manual sorting (ETM-9000 or ETM-12000) — separation of recyclables, organics and reject
- Recyclables line — magnetic separator + baler for baling
- Organics line — mill + composting
- Reject line — shredder (RAPTOR or PR) for RDF
Financial Benefits
- Up to 40% reduction in shredder maintenance costs (prior contaminant removal)
- Recyclable value 30-50% higher with type separation vs. mixed material
- Blade and component life up to 50% longer with prior abrasive removal
- RDF calorific value 15-25% higher with clean recyclable removal
- CAPEX 50-70% lower than 100% automated plants, payback in 18-36 months
Compliance
- NR12: guardrails, stairs, signage and protections
- NBR 14718: guardrail specifications
- PNRS (Law 12.305/2010): infrastructure for sorting and recovery
- ISO 14001: structure prepared for environmental certification
