About Kurrle GmbH
Ing. H. Kurrle GmbH, founded in 1978 and based in Eberdingen (Baden-Württemberg), is an owner-managed family business that develops, manufactures and installs systems for in-plant waste disposal and waste logistics. The portfolio comprises automated WPA disposal systems, extraction systems and dust extractors, dust filter systems of the Optiflow series (from mobile extractors up to 250,000 m³/h), material separators of the KMA series (35,000 to 60,000 m³/h), baler presses, shredders, briquetting presses and conveying technology. Key components are manufactured in-house; projects include planning, manufacturing, installation and commissioning including intelligent control technology. Extracted materials such as corrugated board, paper, cardboard, die-cutting waste, trim strips, films and lint are separated, compacted and returned to the recycling loop. The systems are in use throughout Europe at corrugated board manufacturers, corrugated board processing plants, packaging manufacturers, printers as well as recycling and sorting facilities.

Materials and System Technology
Corrugated board / WPA waste
Automated disposal and recycling of corrugated board waste from production.
Paper / paper dust
Separation and filtration of fine particles from the conveying air to keep breathing air clean.
Cardboard / solid board
Shredding, extraction and compaction of cardboard and solid board residues.
Die-cutting waste, trim strips, cut-offs
Direct capture at die-cutters and slitter scorers followed by shredding.
Films / lint
Separation of plastic films and lint from the pneumatic material flow.
Material separator process (KMA 35/50/60)
Pressure-free separation of coarse residual materials from the air stream as a preliminary stage before filter systems.
Optiflow dust filter technology
Negative- and positive-pressure filter systems with automatic cleaning and ATEX explosion protection.
Pneumatic conveying technology
Piping systems and conveyor belts for material transport across all plant sizes.
