A revolution in wastewater treatment technology

Greater efficiency with Robalon lifting screws in wastewater treatment plants

Rust is the biggest cause of screw wear. With our highly wear resistant ROBALON LIFTING SCREW rust damages, occurred in conventional screws made of steel, can be avoided. The investment in a plastic lifting screw pays off in just half the average lifespan of the screw.

A future better than steel with the material ROBALON.

Running costs in operation

Operation success: renovation of system components, in particular concrete troughs, is a major expense for operators. The ROBALON system solution, which uses an inlay, saves you up to 30% on the cost of a complete renovation package, so it is the quickest and best solution to ensure that the system is back in operation fast.

Efficiency comparison

Compared with normal steel screws, our ROBALON lifting screw is up to 50% more efficient, depending on the water level in the treatment system. The low weight of our plastic screw also increases efficiency.

Makes renovation easy!

The well-designed renovation package contains the ROBALON screw, ROBALON trough and ROBALON bearing, which make installation simple and cost effective. At approx. 300kg, the plastic lifting screw is much lighter than heavy steel screws, which weigh about 700kg. So a crane isn’t required for installation. 

Screw

Due to the excellent material properties, ROBALON screws have a very high resistance to the common chemicals used in wastewater treatment plants. The unique surface prevents contamination and ice formation in winter. 

Trough

ROBALON trough lining protects the substructure against wear and corrosion. The trough lining can be in the form of both an open trough and a tubular screw. Fixed wear indicators confirm the outstanding wear resistance of ROBALON. The trough lining masks holes and unevenness in the substructure. 

Bearing

The lower bearing uses a lifetime-lubricated ROBALON glide bearing bushing. The lower bearing does not require greasing, so there is no lubrication pump and channel. This means no more lubrication or maintenance costs for the lower bearing. 

Expert opinions

Operators, maintenance engineers and experts are impressed by this revolution with comprehensive added value.

KLAUS PFLEGER

Senior management, Mühltal water treatment association

“The ROBALON lifting screw saves me considerable maintenance and servicing costs. I don’t have to look after a lubrication pump, so there are no greasing costs. Minor damages to the screw which previously impaired the corrosion protection are now negligible.”

DI THOMAS KÖGLER

Eisenstadt Wastewater Association

“I am very satisfied with the performance of the whole screw renovation. I received what I was promised. The two ROBALON return screws have been running brilliantly from the outset. Their durability will be shown in coming years.”

FRANZ BRANDSTÄTTER

Senior management, Meisl GmbH

“Working with the firm Röchling Leripa is hugely beneficial for our company, opening up to us new fields of activity with the ROBALON lifting screw.”

GUNTER MOSTLER

Engineer Planner, engineer with Eitler & Partner Ziviltechniker GmbH

“Alongside existing studies on the energy benefits, for me it is the low weight, cost-effective renovation and assembly requirements, as well as the almost maintenance-free bearing which are my reasons for choosing the ROBALON lifting screw.”
