The heart of the Akupress is at home in many applications

The one thousandth screw shaft has left the Bellmer Kufferath factory. From cruise liners to biogas systems everywhere, it´s the perfect choice for sludge dewatering.

On 30 November 2017, the one thousandth screw shaft left the Bellmer Kufferath factory in Düren. This notable figure reflects the many years of experience and long-standing knowhow of the company. The first screw press (brand name AKUPRESS), and with it also the first screw shaft, was built by Bellmer Kufferath as early as 1985. Over the years, the technology has been modified and developed.
Today, Bellmer Kufferath is the world market leader in screw presses, offering a range of 10 series and 10 sizes with diameters between 200 – 1,400 mm.
The screw presses are used all over the world for dewatering and thickening coarse and fibrous materials or sludges in the paper industry but also in the recycling sector (in biogas systems, digestion plants, on cruise liners or in plastics recycling), in the food industry as well as for numerous other applications.
Based on many decades of experience, the acquired expertise and excellent customer service Bellmer Kufferath continues to convince its customers again and again that Bellmer Kufferath can cover almost all industrial fields of application.
