The global popularity of this shredder series assures high reliability at a competitive price to performance ratio. These machines set themselves apart from other machines of their size and type due to their robust construction, giving them a longer life cycle. The shredded wood can be discharged into an air conveyor or onto a traditional conveyor. The profiled innovative “V” Rotor is made of solid material and mounted on stable rotor bearings. Special blade holders are welded into milled blade pockets around its circumference. The cutting knives are set into these and screwed on from the back. This ensures quick and easy blade changing. 01 V-rotor and screen change 02 This installation is outfitted with a shredder and briquette press. 03 Pneumatic discharge connection 04 The WEIMA gearbox (WAP) Compare our models Find the right machine Rotor Diameter (mm) Rotor length (mm) Rotor Speed (rpm) Power (hp) Rotor Knives Available knife sizes (mm) Fraction size (mm) Connection Diameter (mm) Infeed (mm) Length (mm) Width (mm) Height (mm) Weight (approx. kg) WL 4 260 *1 600 100 *2 11-18,5 *3 28 *4 40 10-40 160 600x1050 2045 1190 *5 1640 1300 *1 dependent on flight circle *2 dependent on specific drive configuration *3 dependent on drive technology *4 depending on machine configuration *5 in standard configuration Download brochure Want to find out more about these machines?
