3 Introduction - EME History EME Maschinenfabrik Clasen GmbH is one of the globally leading supplier of batch plants and cullet return systems in the glass industry. Established 1920 Business segments past Material handling systems and conveying equipment for the mining and bulk material industry Akquisition 1987 Owner 100% Sorg Beteiligungen GmbH Business segments today Batch plants and cullet returns systems for the glass industry Employees 70 Revenue appr. 20 Mio. Euro Batch Plants Tower Concept The main charecteristic of a Tower Batch Plant is the use of gravitiy for transport functions. Uses gravity for most transport functions Mixer located centrally under silos Scales located directly over mixer Multiple-component scales often used Segmented or rectangular silos often used 3

4 Batch Plants Inline Concept Typically a central collecting conveyor is used for the transport to the mixer. Transport to mixer by central conveyor Scales not located over mixer Multi component or singlecomponent scales possible Round silos are very common Container Glass Batch Plant serves one or multiple furnaces with different colors. Batch Plant + External Cullet Internal Cullet Batch Charger Hot Cullet Return Cold Cullet Treatment Medium to high tonnages. Special hot cullet handling and bottel crushers High amount of cullet used 4

5 Float Glass Batch Plant serves one furnace with one or several colors. Cullet Storage Cullet Return External Cullet Storage Cold Cullet Treatment High tonnages Long cullet return system Special crushing technology for flat glass Batch Plant Hot Cullet Treatment Fiber Glass Batch Plant serves one or several furnaces. Pneumatic Raw Material loading Low tonnages Batch Plant No cullet return system Pneumatic transport Pneumatic mixing for fine raw materials Pneumatic Mixing Pneumatic Transport to furnace 5
