Innovation in Action – ERS News & Projects

ERS Industrial Project News highlights real‑world installations, system upgrades, engineering achievements, and field‑proven results across the industries we serve. This page brings together updates from metals recycling, paper converting, dust collection, and industrial scrap handling, offering a clear view into how Engineered Recycling Systems (ERS) delivers engineered performance in demanding production environments.

Recent updates in the metals sector showcase turnkey systems for copper wire chopping, aluminum separation, e‑scrap processing, and rare earth recovery from printed circuit boards. These projects feature engineered granulation lines, magnetic and eddy current separation, air classification, and high‑efficiency dust control designed to isolate high‑value fractions from complex scrap streams. Each installation is tailored to the customer’s material flow, facility layout, and throughput requirements, with a focus on rapid ROI, clean operation, and long‑term reliability.

ERS news also covers major advancements in paper converting and corrugated production. Recent installations include dust and trim removal systems for rotary die cutters, Flexo Folder Gluers, and high‑speed converting lines. Many of these systems feature the CCM® OCT Filter, a fully enclosed filtration platform that operates without compressed air and delivers consistent performance with minimal maintenance. Machine builders and OEM partners continue to integrate ERS dust control into their converting lines, reflecting the industry’s shift toward engineered, enclosed, and energy‑efficient filtration.

Across industrial scrap handling, ERS continues to modernize and upgrade non‑ERS systems. These projects include retrofits for pneumatic transport lines, improvements to magnetic separation platforms, and airflow stabilization upgrades for aging dust collection equipment. Field service teams provide on‑site diagnostics, operator training, and performance tuning to restore efficiency, reduce maintenance, and meet evolving compliance requirements.

The purpose of ERS Industrial Project News is to give customers a clear view of the work happening behind the scenes: the engineering decisions, the system integrations, the field adjustments, and the real‑world results that define ERS installations. Each update reflects the same core principles—engineered precision, clean operation, and long‑term system performance.

This page is updated regularly with new case studies, installation highlights, and customer success stories. Whether your operation is focused on metals recycling, paper converting, or dust‑intensive production, ERS Industrial Project News provides an inside look at how our systems solve complex challenges and support cleaner, safer, and more efficient facilities.

ERS launches CCM® OCT dust filter into tissue market

Learn more about the new dust extraction system for the tissue industry

by ERS

Atlanta-headquartered Engineered Recycling Systems (ERS) has introduced its CCM OCT dust filter system into the global tissue, towel, and non-woven converting markets.

A leader in dust collection, metal separation, and trim removal systems, the company had previously focused on the corrugated box manufacturing arena to develop, change, and finalize the design.

Mike Carver, ERS Managing Partner, told TWM that the CCM OCT is “now complete and ready to roll out into the tissue market”.

He said: “Several years ago, ERS engineers saw the need for a better, safer, and easier to maintain alternative to wet scrubbers and baghouse, cartridge, and enclosed drum filters that are used in the markets for dust extraction and collection.

“Our engineers came up with a modernized, simple, safe designed OSHA and NFPA compliant CCM filter. In fact, you can watch and troubleshoot the CCM filter while it is running.”

Carver added that the system doesn’t require explosion venting, an abort gate, or expensive fire protection.

“It is the safest, easiest to maintain, most sustainable dust filter on the market today, marching in a new era for the standard in dust extraction and collection,” he said.

ERS at Tissue World Miami 2022

Join us at Tissue World Miami 2022

by ERS

ERS is pleased to announce that the CCM®OCT dust filter is now available to the tissue, towel, and non-woven markets in North America. This dust filter design was developed over thirty years ago in Europe and then brought to the North American market. About six years ago ERS engineers saw this filter as a replacement for the baghouse, cartridge filter, and enclosed drum filters that are used today for dust collection. Our engineers modernized the original design to the CCM®OCT filter we market today. This filter system is OSHA and NFPA approved as non-explosive! No other company can say this! ERS has installed a base of over 50 of these dust filter systems at various paper facilities across North America. The ERS CCM®OCT doesn’t require explosion venting, an abort gate, expensive fire protection and filter maintenance, low cost, quick and simple. This makes the ERS CCM®OCT the safest, easiest to maintain, dust filter system on the market today and the new standard for dust collection in the tissue/towel, paper, and non-wovens markets.
