SDi windshifter

The SDi is a semi-mobile, plug-and-play windshifter using industry-leading negative pressure technology to sort a wide range of material by density.

The SDi series is available in two models, semi-mobile and stationary, with an integrated dust filtration system, an electrical cabinet, support and for abrasive materials with a wear resistant (WR) configuration. Usable for virtually all kinds of solid waste up to 200 mm such as: Commercial and Industrial waste (C&I), Commercial & Demolition waste (C&D), Municipal Solid waste (MSW),  Refuse Derived Fuel (RDF), Automotive Shredder Residue (ASR), compost, and more.

Principle separating process

The picture below shows the operating principle of the SDi. The two-way fraction is created with an air separation point and a splitter drum, at which the heavy material is separated from the light material.

Curious? We have fully operational SDi test units which can prove the separation efficiency on your site with your waste input.

A recycling plant in Australia operational with a Nihot DDS and SDS windshifter!

Both windshifters are processing C&D waste and creating a 3-way separation: (1) clean hardcore, (2) a wood fraction for recovery (2) and an RDF fraction (3). The DDS 1600 is processing 66 tph with a 50-110 mm fraction size.
