L 30 Series single shaft shredder
General Description:
The L30 Series shredders are single shaft shreddes with a tangential in-feed to
eliminate the need for a hydraulic feeding systems. The space saving and
maneuverable design combined with the “plug and play” controls make this
machine very flexible and ready to go in no time.Like its bigger brothers in the
G series they are equipped with outboard bearings, 310mm diamter flat E
rotors with 600 or 850mm width driven by an oversized geared motor.
Utilizing the proven Virtus knife holder and knife design.The user friendly
design makes cleaning and maintenance work a breeze.The low speed of 60
rpm combined with the compact design of the L shredders makes it possible to
shred lumps at a relatively low noise level.The machines can be fed manually
or by conveyor, material discharge can be done via conveyor or into a drop
box.
Technical Machine Advantages
Affordable solution for small lumps
Simple upgrade for existing granulation system
Easy to move and place
Tangential in-feed avoids the need for a hydraulic pusher
Small footprint
Low energy consumption
G Series general purpose shredder
Designed for a wide range of applications.
General Description
The G shredders are single shaft shredders with a powerful two speed swing
ram design eliminating the risk of blocking and wearing out of internal guide
rails. The machine is very versatile and can be used for shredding of all kinds of
input materials and is well suited for different industries. The 457 mm
diameter rotors ranging from 850 to 2000 mm width are driven by one or two
oversized gearboxes. The hydraulic power pack is well integrated into the
machine housing to save space and protect it from damage, but still easy to
access or remove for maintenance. The standard E rotor features the proven
Virtus knife and knife holder design, as well as outboard bearings and a
hydraulically-operated screen cradle. The machines can be tailored to various
applications with cooling or hard facing and other wear options.
Technical Machine Advantages
Low speed, high torque gear drive
Powerful hydraulic swing type pusher
Smaller footprint compared to traditional shredders with horizontal pushers
Bolted in drive shafts
Two speed hydraulic comes standard
V Series big volume shredders
Recycle post-consumer waste
General Description
The V series shredders are single shaft shredders with a large internal volume.
The redesigned hydraulic pusher system creates about 35% more space in the
cutting chamber while increasing the power and speed of the ram itself. The
machines are equipped with a 457 mm diameter Virtus E rotor with widths
ranging from 1200 to 2000 mm. As on the G machines the rotor is driven via an
oversized gearbox. The completely closed welded steel housing increases the
stability and avoids material spillage. The V inherits all of the advantages of the
Virtus knife and knife holder design as well as standard features such as
outboard bearings, hydraulic screen cradle, it’s easy maintainability and
advanced controls.
Technical Machine Advantages
35% more internal volume compared to the R series
Internal hydraulic pusher
Variable faster pusher movement
Smaller footprint compared to traditional shredders with horizontal pushers
Closed cutting chamber to avoid material spillage
P Series large diameter continuous shredder
Reclaimed pipe no problem.
General Description
The P Series shredder is the world’s first single shaft shredder capable
of handling many types of large diameter forms such as reclaimed
pipes.Dependent on the item’s diameter the P Series rotor diameters
and widths range from 800 mm up to 1500 mm.The standard hopper
accepts lengths up to 6 m.The combination of advanced controls, low
rotor spee and smooth hydraulics create a reliable and easy to use
system
Technical Machine Advantages
Internal hydraulic pusher
Variable faster pusher movement
Smaller footprint compared to traditional shredders with horizontal pushers
Closed cutting chamber to avoid material spillage
T Series shredder for car tires.
General Description
The T Series shredders are single shaft shredders specially design for
processing complete or pre-shredded tires.Features a 750 mm
diameter rotor with 1500 to 3000 mm width options.Machines
include outboard bearings and twin gearbox drives.The tangential
infeed ensures optimal feeding of the tires while eliminating the need
for a hydraulic feeding system.Equipped with a complete wear
package including rotor hard facing plus special knives and wear plates
made from highly wear resistant steel.The modular design makes it
easy to integrate either machine into existing installations.
Technical Machine Advantages
Single large diameter rotor (750 mm)
Proprietary knife design and material
Variable knife gap to improve separation of steel and rubber
Compact heavy duty design
High througput rates
Fast and easy tool change and maintenance
X Series heavy duty shredder
General Description
The X Series shredders are single shaft shredders with a powerful two speed
swing ram design eliminating the risk of blocking and wearing out of internal
guide rails.The machine is very versatile and can be used for shredding all
kinds of input materials.The 750mm diameter rotors ranging from 1500 to
3000mm width are driven by two oversized gearboxes.The low speed of
45rpm guarantees a high torque and smooth operation.The hydraulic power
pack is well integrated into the machine housing to save space and protect it
from damage but still easy to access or remove for maintenance.The proven E
rotor, knife holder and knife designs are take to new dimensions to conquer
the most demanding applications and challenges.The machines can be
tailored to various applications with advanced controls and hydraulics, hard
facing and other wear options.
Technical Machine Advantages
Powerful two speed hydraulic swing type ram
Heavy duty design
High through put rates
Suitable for very large and heavy pieces
Large diameter rotor (750mm)
