The classic model for shredding all kinds of wood waste. Thousands of shredders are used all over the world from small to medium sized businesses. The WEIMA shredder distinguishing feature is a very rugged construction enabling an extremely long service life (even in outdoor operations). The global popularity of this shredder series assures high reliability at a competitive price to performance ratio. Material is fed through the hopper to fall in front of a hydraulically operated drawer that presses the material, according to load, onto the turning rotor. The material is shredded between the rotor knives and a fixed stationary counter knife. The drawer is equipped with castellation as is the floor to prevent materials being lodged between the drawer and the machine casing. The chips produced can be conveyed from the output of the machine by an air extraction system, screw or belt conveyor. The WEIMA innovative profiled “V” Rotor is made of solid material and mounted on stable rotor bearings. Special knife holders are welded into milled knife pockets around its circumference. The cutting knives are set into these and screwed on from the back. This ensures quick and easy knife changing. The concave cutting knives can be rotated four times to ensure a precise cut with optimum performance.
