Dear readers,

the 19th of December last year will go down as a sad day in our company his-tory. On this day, roofing work on our sales building (which was necessary due to the new construction of a recep-tion building) resulted in a major fire - up to now this was the only one in the company’s 96-year history. The sales building was completely destroyed dur-ing the fire and is now awaiting dem-olition. The new building was also se-riously damaged. Only two weeks later it would have been completed, and in January we would have been able to move into the new offices at last.

Despite the severity of the fire we are just thankful that nobody was injured. Apart from this, a peak deployment of 160 firemen were able to prevent the fire spreading to the rest of our oper-ations, and the adjacent old adminis-tration building containing our serv-er, thanks to their fantastic efforts. If this had happened we would have had to put up with a long-term com-plete operational shutdown, but luck-ily we were able to continue work the next day. The sympathy and compas-sion shown by our staff, many custom-ers and suppliers in the form of brief mails or calls was extremely good for my soul. This gave us an addition-al incentive to look forward again.

The effects of the fire on our daily op-erating procedures have been damp-

ened thanks to a series of improvisa-tions but they are, however, still clearly noticeable in every corner. The ne-gotiations with the insurance com-panies and plans for rebuilding will shortly be completed, and then the diggers can come in. We will remain true to our tradition for the rebuild-ing. Things which are worth retain-ing and still functioning will continue to be used, new things will be modern and not built without aspiration. We want to be ready by the end of the year and, at the same time, leave the ca-pabilities of the company unrestrict-ed from our customers’ point of view.

Up to now we have managed this, and in February we were able to fin-ish and deliver the 3,500th JENZ ma-chine right on time. This machine was an HEM 821 Z with the new H 1 drum and hydraulic blower. We will be reporting about this, and also the wide-ranging deployments of our bio-mass processors and the subject of ma-chine servicing on the following pag-es. I hope you enjoy reading this issue.

Wehrbleck (jkr). Patrick Windhorst (34) and Andreas Rohlfs (43) start-ed off with five employees, and by now it’s 30. RoWin GmbH, which was founded in 2013, runs a successful core business producing and refining high quality woodchippings, as the gener-al managers underlined. Some of the byproducts include hardwood chipping briquettes, so-called “PowerBlocks”.

The headquarters is at the depot in Wehr-bleck, which consists of a couple of farm-steads between Sulingen and Diepholz, through which the B 214 runs. There is a second operating location in Wagenfeld.

Patrick Windhorst is a trained mechanic, Andreas Rohlfs

has agricultural

training. Both were already working in the bio-energy sector as they met each other in 2010. Three years later they took the step into self-employment. With con-siderable success, as the figures show: the two businessmen produce and sell around 110,000 m³ of premium woodchip-pings and woodchipping briquettes every year. During this, RoWin GmbH produces everything itself: from the harvest at the Lower Saxony State Forestry operations through woodchipping production, dry-ing, screening, pressing, packing, deliv-ery. By now, the two partners also own a haulage company with 15 lorries. Their customers are “col-ourfully mixed” as Patrick Wind-horst put it.

“From small to medium segment heat-ing installations in local authorities, public utility companies up to the small farmer – we have a bit of everything.”

Last year, Andreas Rohlfs and Pat-rick Windhorst ordered two power take-off-driven chippers with the new H1 chipper drum at the same time in or-der to safeguard their production of high-quality woodchippings. “Bernd Ruhe persuaded us to let him demon-strate a HEM 821 Z”, said Patrick Wind-

horst with a smile, and continued: “We kept hold of the demonstration ma-chine right away and then ordered an HEM 583 Z on top.” The demonstration machine was, by the way, the first of its type with the new enclosed H1 chipper drum sold by JENZ in Germany. In ad-dition to the two new mobile chippers, RoWin also has a JENZ HEM 581 DL with a Helix rotor in operation. “My opinion is that there’s nothing better on the market at the moment” said Patrick Windhorst, who thinks the JENZ machines should be awarded “very good” as a mark “except for a few minor incidents”. “The manu-facturing quality is at a very, very high

standard. There are almost no rogue re-sults with the G100 woodchippings us-ing the H1 drum. On top of this, there’s the flexibility provided by the pre-grip-ping wedges” said Mr Windhorst before continuing. “The entire ordering pro-cess was very well organised and the ma-chine was delivered right on time.”

The new H1 chipper drum was also pos-itively reviewed by the specialist press. According to “Forst & Technik” maga-zine: “The H1 chipping drum even pro-duces good woodchippings from very thin material, for example light cut-tings, irrespective of whether they are

intended to be G30, G50 or G100 chips. Even huge old birch trees are clean-ly cut with sharp edges. That can’t be taken for grant-ed for all chippers even when you’ve got new blades. The chips are precise-ly and cleanly cut, and they are not broken or ripped. The fines content has been mini-

mised by a lot of detailed improvements.”In order to press the “PowerBlocks”, which are made of beech and oak wood and measure 25 cm in length and have a cross-section of 9 x 9 cm, the two busi-nessmen needed woodchippings at Ecological Standard G 30. This task is carried out by the new HEM 583 Z, be-cause this is the only machine for which Patrick Windhorst and Andre-as Rohlfs hhave a suitable screen bas-ket. At RoWin the HEM 821 Z is towed by a Claas Xerion Trac 3800 with 253 kW (345 hp) and the HEM 583 Z is towed by a Fendt 936 with 265 kW (360 hp).

Andreas Rohlfs (l.) and Patrick Windhorst (r.) founded RoWin in 2013, and the company headquarters is the depot in Wehrbleck.

Chile. The south of Chile is often known as “Switzerland of the Andes”. Many German and German-speaking emigrants from Switzerland settled here between 100 and 200 years ago where a very special tree, the Quil-laja, which was known as the “soap bark tree” in local parlance, grows.

The original inhabitants already val-ued the evergreen plant because its bark contained sapon, which they tra-ditionally used as a soap substitute. Nowadays the active substances from the tree are widely used: for respira-tory and skin complaints, both inter-nal and external, as tea, as additives in the cosmetic industry or for fur-ther processing of final products which are used in agriculture as fungicides.

A stationary JENZ chipper of type HE 561 StA has been in use for the last application since recently. Albrecht Hahn, sales representative for South America, explains the machine’s de-ployment: “The chipper is being used by an established German chemical com-pany. The company uses the tree’s ac-tive substances by processing them into woodchippings, and then fur-ther processes the extracted substanc-es to form the actual end product.”

Disc chipper does not result in the required successInitially a stationary disc chipper made in Chile was used for fragmentis-ing. “However, this was done without considering the limits of a disc chip-per” explained Albrecht Hahn. “Na-

ture didn’t provide the soap bark tree with the slender growth of a bam-boo plant, instead it has a particu-

lar stubbornness which means that the tree grows towards the heavens with large twists in its trunk.” The disc chip with the narrow, channelised in-feed to the rotor only allowed straight trunks to pass through, which meant that around 40 % of the valuable tree re-mained as reject material on the heap.

Once they had cast an eye on the prob-lems in the production line, Chilean JENZ dealer Tecsus and Albrecht Hahn decid-ed to propose a stationary chipper of type HE 561 StA and to convince the cus-tomer of this solution’s powerful capa-bilities in the form of a demonstration. “As it happened, the presentation of an HEM 581 R band outfeed chipper truck was confirmation of our powers of con-vincing: everything lying around on the heaps was processed within a very short time” recalled Albrecht Hahn.

HE 561 StA produces different woodchipping sizesAs supplied, the HE 561 StA is fitted with a drive powered by an electric mo-tor with a power of 160 kW and a ris-

ing belt for further pro-cessing of the woodchippings. Apart from this, different woodchip-ping sizes were required. “The rotor we supplied with its f lexible blade oc-cupation allowed us to meet this re-quirement”, said Mr Hahn. Coarse ma-terial was produced by using 10 blades, 20 blades process the soap bark tree into fine woodchippings. Further calibra-tion of the final product is made possible by the use of different screen baskets, which were also included in delivery.

Albrecht Hahn is obviously satisfied with the deployment results produced by the stationary chipper to date. The unit was delivered in summer 2016, and it has been working in multi-shift oper-ation without any problems at all since then. “As is normal for large compa-nies, we were in competition with fur-ther international manufacturers for sta-tionary chippers, including some from Germany. We are very proud of the fact that it’s not just the price, but also the woodchipping quality, which provid-ed the convincing arguments.” The sale

was also a great success for JENZ deal-er Tecsus, because the company now has a reference stationary electrical unit in addition to its mobile chippers “which”, said Mr Hahn, “means that we can prove that sometimes twisted things can be straightened out to match”.

The Quillaja is a very special tree whose active substances can be widely used.

The deployment results produced by the HE 561 StA stationary chipper, which was supplied in summer 2016, are convincing.

“Big is always best” Why JENZ is delivering its largest

biomass processor, the BA 965 DXL, to Australia

The BA 965 DXL Tiger moves across the service yard on its caterpillar tracks at 3 km/h. The largest JENZ biomass processor, which started its long jour-ney from peaceful little village of Wegholm into the big wide world in August last year, weighs 29 t. Over the subsequent seven weeks the shredder travelled a total of around 5,500 sea miles. Its destination was Australia, to put it more precisely New South Wales, which is the state with the highest population in the country and located in the south-east of the continent.

Once it arrived, JENZ dealer GCM Envi-ro took delivery of the machine at Kem-bla harbour. The company sells both landfill compactors, fragmentisers and breakers in addition to highly-modern screen and compost rollers. The dealer-ship contract with JENZ was set up in 2013. Equipment made by manufactur-ers Tana, Terra Select, Backhus and Allu are also included in the product range.

Up to now, GCM Enviro has mostly imported smaller JENZ shredders of type AZ 460, both as a classical mobile

diesel-engined machine and also in a stationary form with an electric drive. With its BA 965 DXL on caterpillar tracks, JENZ is now delivering a real heavy-weight, and that goes down very well Down Under. “We were looking for exactly this machine. It is extremely high-pow-ered and matches our philosophy ‘Big is always best’”, explained Daniel Kas-towski, GCM’s CEO. The BA 965 DXL is the largest biomass processor made by JENZ. Fitted with the iTCAT C18 add-on motor at 776 hp, the machine is suitable for use with a wide range of materials such as garden waste, bark, scrap wood or do-mestic waste. The long belt hopper with a free loading length of 6 m guarantees continuous material f low and facilitates feeding. That’s just the right thing for the final customer, the Thomas Paul company. The building contractor buys “wild” plots and builds whole housing developments on them. A lot of recycling work is created by clearance and building activities, and these are carried out by subsidiary company North Wyong Recy-cling. In other words it’s no surprise that the company selected the strongest JENZ shredder available for this purpose. The decision was obviously the right one, as

Gerry Koster, Vehicle Fleet Manager at GCM told us: “The machine has been running perfectly since it was delivered. It has excellent all-terrain capabilities thanks to its setup on cater-pillar tracks, and this pays dividends in what is often rough terrain during construction work. Apart from that the throughput is enor-mous, and the quality is spot-on as well.”

The biggest JENZ biomass processor, the BA 965 DXL Tiger, achieves very high throughput even with hard, difficult material.

Wegholm (tfr). “People who lubri-cate well drive well”– this sentence is widely known in everyday life. Howev-er, is not just the lubrication, it’s the timely replacement of wear parts and cleaning of machine parts which are enormously important as well. This is especially the case of machine owners and operators want to have a prob-lem-free working day with an opti-mally-adjusted and fitted machine.

Correct lubrication A separate chapter in the JENZ chipper and biomass processor operating man-uals describes the inspection, care and service required. More service infor-mation is contained in the additional-

ly-fitted component documentation, for example the diesel en-gines, cranes or wood splitters. This docu-mentation lists the lubricating points, the lubricating in-tervals and the pre-scribed grease.

The first measure re-quired before lubri-cation is carried out with the grease gun or the grease block is to clean dirt and dust off the lubricat-

ing point and the grease gun mouth-piece. This prevents foreign bodies en-tering the bearing and the bearing shell.However, how much grease has to be ap-plied to the corresponding bearing lo-cation? This is a question which is often asked and often discussed. We recom-mend that the lubricating point should be provided with grease until a “grease collar” forms, and then the collar should be removed so that this excess grease does not end up in the environment. As usual, the following guideline ap-plies: “as much as necessary, as little as possible.” Applying too much lubri-cant does not have any added value, it only pushes the maintenance costs up.

This is one of the reasons why the use of electrically-operated central lubri-cating units is increasing. Such equip-ment made by BEKAMAX is offered as an option with JENZ machines. This form of lubrication is much more ef-ficient since the lubricant also enters the lubricating points during opera-tion, which guarantees a continuous lu-bricant supply with low cost require-ments. In addition, service times are reduced. However, care is required: lu-

bricant lines and lubricant pumps should still be regularly inspected. This makes sense when lubricant refilling is carried out, and does not require much time.

Knowing when it’s time – the right time for replacing wear partsThe future of wood-burning is much de-bated at the moment. The term “fine particle emission” comes up again and again. These fine particles, which are caused by the combustion of fine wood particles, are something to be avoid-ed during the manufacture of wood-chippings. In this case it is extreme-ly important to observe the wear limits in the chipping unit and to know when the counter blade and the blades need to be replaced. Furthermore, consequen-tial damage to the chipping unit and the material outfeed are also avoided.The counter blade has been designed by the JENZ engineers so that it can be turned over once before it needs re-placement. The best time to turn or re-

place the counter blade is when a con-siderable radius has formed. Apart from this it is a disadvantage if the coun-ter blade breaks out, since the maxi-mum distance to the drum blade sys-tem is then exceeded at this point, which in turn means that the woodchip-ping quality deteriorates considerably.Blades are not only used as tools in wood-chipping machines, they are also used in biomass processors. In addition the bi-omass processors, which are fitted with Easy System tool carriers, are fitted with armoured or hardened metal tool heads. These have been designed for differ-ent feed materials. However, no matter which tool you are using or which JENZ machine you’re working with: the impor-tant thing is to realise that the tools need to be replaced if the blades and heads have a large radius or have been worn down so much that the top clamping piece is being attacked by the outflowing material. This is so because blunt tools and a bad material f low increase the fuel

The BEKAMAX central lubrication linnet provides the attached lubricating points with lubricant at regular intervals.

The operator replaces the blades after inspecting them.

consumption, have a negative effect on con-tinuous work, and also reduce material quality.

Keeping an eye on machine hygieneIn the first instance this term may appear to be a little unrelated, but it really is an impor-tant factor for servic-ing and caring for a ma-chine if you think about it. This is because belt drives can only work ac-ceptably without suf-fering from increased abrasion at an appropri-ate level of cleanliness. Apart from this, leak-ages and cracks can be recognised early and be eliminated so that ma-chine breakdowns are avoided. Even the cool-ers can only provide their full performance

with appropriate cleaning. For this rea-son it’s important to bring the airgun into play too often rather than not often enough, especially under very dusty con-ditions and high external temperatures, in order to clean the cooler. In the case of the chipper trucks, this has been simpli-fied through special activation of the Vis-co fan and an optionally-available cooler with larger, continuous mesh widths.

Toomas Triisa was able to celebrate a huge success in January. The general manager of the Estonian JENZ dealer OÜ Autra achieved 30th place in this year’s Rallye Dakar in the overall rankings and even won the so-called Malle-Mo-to Class. The difficulty of this class is that the drivers have to manage the tour without a service team in the back-ground – and this is a real challenge. “The first time I took part in 2014 I un-derestimated the race and I didn’t pre-pare myself sufficiently. That was a mis-take. In 2017 I spent a lot of time with specific preparation. The overall plac-ing and winning the Malle-Moto Class was simply a dream come true for me” ac-cording to Mr Triisa, who was celebrat-ed for his success in his homeland.

On 19 December, a fire in JENZ GmbH’s sales building resulted in a large-scale fire services deployment. The fire was started by roofing work during the

course of new construction and spread rapidly into the inter-mediate roofing spaces of the old sales building. Luckily, no-body was injured. The workforce was able to leave the building in good time. Other adminis-tration buildings, the produc-tion and the service areas remained un-damaged. Normal op-erations were re-started as usual in these areas as ear-ly as 20th December.

The staff who worked in the affected sales building were provid-ed with container of-

fices in the second week of the year, and these will be avail-able for the duration of dem-olition and reconstruction.

“The fire has caused the most seri-ous damage in JENZ GmbH’s com-pany history. In the end, however, we’re just happy that nobody was in-jured and that we could start operat-ing procedures again so quickly” said general manager Uwe Hempen-Her-meier with considerable relief.

Venezia (ehe). The percentage of women working as JENZ dealers is, let us say, relatively limited. This becomes obvi-ous during the annual sales meetings. However, one company is constantly flying the women’s flag: Vama Ecology Srl is counting on woman’s power and is managed by Paola Culetto. The compa-ny sells earthmoving machines, waste compactors and, since 2013, technology for processing biomasses made by JENZ.

“Actually, we are two companies”, re-ported Paola Culetto “because first-ly there is OFFICINE VA.MA.R and sec-ondly Vama Ecology Srl”. The 53-year-old has been general manager of Vama Ecol-ogy for the last 14 years. The company

imports and exports new and used ma-chines, and either rents or sells them. OFFICINE VA.MA.R has been around for a couple of years longer. The company was founded by Paola’s husband Mau-ro Mariuzzo together with his business partner Valerio Giordano, and deals with the service sector. Maintenance repairs and the preparation of used machine and service deployments are on offer.

Vama Ecology and OFFICINE VA.MA.R work hand-in-hand. The headquarters of both companies is located in the Vene-zia region in northern Italy, only around 60 km from the beautiful city of Ven-ice with its numerous lagoons. The com-panies also cover the south of the coun-

try. “Lately we have managed to set up a small JENZ warehouse and a JENZ me-chanic in southern Italy” reported Paola Culetto proudly. In addition to this, me-chanics are travelling the whole coun-try in their service vans. Many of the OF-FICINE mechanics have taken part in JENZ fitter training sessions in order to offer their customers the best-pos-sible service, and this has an impor-tant background: Vama Ecology counts on its good service, because the com-petition is making itself obvious. “The main challenge to us is the strong com-petition in the Italian market. Espe-cially in terms of price. This forces us to set ourselves apart using a perfect-ly-functioning customer service.”

On top of this, the company uses the wide range of setup and fitting variations of-fered by JENZ machines. “Our custom-ers come from a range of sectors, includ-ing recycling, waste treatment, forestry and construction or biomasses”, ex-plained Paola Culetto. For this reason Vama can deliver everything the custom-er wants, whether it’s a chipper, biomass processor, whether mobile or stationary.

The company has been presenting its wide spectrum of services since the co-operation with JENZ at the Messe Eco-mondo in Rimini, which takes place every year. The Ecomondo is considered to be one of the most important trade fairs for the green economy in the Eu-ropean Mediterranean area with more than 100,000 visitors over 4 days. “The trade fair is very big, and it’s an impor-tant platform for visitors from all over the world”, said Paola Culetto. “For us it’s the perfect opportunity to effective-ly represent JENZ on the Italian market.” Melissa Maccaro Works in the back-ground to ensure smooth coordina-tion with JENZ. The 26-year-old is half German, half Italian and has been working at Vama Ecology for the last

4 years. Here she deals with the en-tire correspondence with JENZ wheth-er it is new machine sales, spare parts or general customer visits.

In total, 15 employees work for both com-panies and even if Vama isn’t a tradition-al family company, the next generation is

ready to take over. Sandro and Valenti-na, Mauro Mariuzzo and Paola Culetto’s children, are now working for OFFICINE VA.MA.R. Valentina works in book-keeping, and son Sandro is a mechan-ic. Angelica Giordano, company founder Valerio Giordano’s daughter, is also rein-forcing the team in the spare parts busi-

ness and in bookkeep-ing. In other words, the course for the fu-ture has been set.

The Ecomondo is conside-red to be one of the most important trade fairs for the green economy in the Medi-terranean area. Last year, Vama presented the new BA 915 D biomass processor.
