Hoppers

Application specific feed
hoppers configured to maximize efficiency and thruput.

Drive Configurations

Electric, hydraulic, and SmartDrive™ options available to
meet requirements of the application.

Direct Drive

Simple and efficient drive with no belts to maintain.

Cleaning Fingers

Keeps shredded material from building between cutters.

Pierce-Point Cutters

Effectively pull material into the center of the cutting chamber and cut it into strips approximately the same width as the cutter.

Patented ACLS™

Advanced Cutter Locking System (ACLS) efficiently maintains a tight cutter stack, minimizes maintenance, and prolongs cutter life.

Seal & Bearing Protection

Combination of conventional & labyrinth seals to prevent contamination from the cutting chamber.
