The shredding of metals of all kinds, however, presents even industrial shredders with particularly great challenges. Metal waste is extremely abrasive, heavy and usually bulky. This includes, for example, production waste from the waste, automotive and electrical industries as well as the metal processing sector. Typical applications are punching waste, beverage cans, foils, profiles, milling and sawdust, light scrap, car body parts, wires, cables, sheet metal waste and aluminium scrap of all kinds.
