Who we are

TecnoCAD has been an industrial mechanical design office since 1989. Although small in size, it has always offered direct support to industrial production activities and plant construction companies. This has allowed us to address in practice various problems of design, construction and production, requiring flexibility and problem solving skills.For 10 years, as many direct experiences in the field of waste treatment and recycling have allowed us to design and coordinate the construction of various revamping plants. Revamping sometimes puts a strain on processes and equipment.

Why PickUp

The continuous need to upgrade sorting plants has always led to major structural overhauls or continuous "touch-ups". Bottlenecks" are often generated which limit the increase in waste treatment. These requirements gave rise to an idea that soon became a prototype and a patent

Pickup type

Pick-up is an innovative machinery which aims to innovate the recycling process. Nowadays, the sorting processes of the recycling materials take a huge amount of energy and complex machinery with a low capacity factor.

Pick-up is the simple and innovative technology developed after years of experience in the recycling industry team allows a drastic reduction in terms of maintenance time and energy consumption. In fact, Pick-up is thought to replace the existing machinery which is using an obsolete screening method, with a simple and efficient mechanical process. A patent covers the sorting mechanical process undergo by Pick-up, a series of successful reliability tests have been performed in different waste plants in Italy.

What makes Pick-up a cutting-edge solution in the waste industry is its flexibility to be adapted to every kind of sorting process. Pick-up is designed to work in hard situations, during the test campaign the machine was overloaded for several hours showing outstanding reliability performance. In the last year, the development team is studying new applications of Pick-up in different industries included the water cleaning of floating objects being the machine able to work in wet conditions.

In conclusions, Pick-up is able to enhance the sorting process in the waste industry reducing costs and maintenance time. The small dimensions allow the machine to operate in new plants or revamping projects.
