The Baljer Zembrod company, formed in 1951 in Ebenweiler (Baden-Wü rttemberg, Germany) spe-
cialise in the manufacture of wood working equipment for saw mills and handling equipment for
scrap and waste industries. They have an impressive range of products and it is interesting that they
have commissioned NZG to produce a scale model of one of their scrap and waste handling ma-
chines, the SRK semi-mobile recycling crane, type LGX II.
