M&J Recycling launches the new P2000e, combining more than 25 years of proven MSW performance with industry-leading eDrive technology to deliver high-capacity shredding with lower operating and lifecycle costs.

For more than 25 years, the M&J P2000 has helped waste operators process municipal solid waste with reliable performance and high throughput. The new M&J P2000e builds on that experience, bringing M&J’s industry-leading eDrive technology to a machine engineered specifically for MSW.

The result is an electric pre-shredder capable of processing up to 70 tonnes per hour, with up to 99% of household waste bags opening with ease during high-volume MSW treatment. With eDrive at its core, the P2000e is engineered to lower operating and lifecycle costs without compromising the shredding performance required for demanding MSW operations.

Engineered for demanding MSW operations

Municipal solid waste is unpredictable. Waste composition changes continuously, placing high demands on both equipment and operators.

The P2000e has been engineered specifically for these conditions. Combining the shredding characteristics of a much larger machine with the simplicity of a compact single-shaft design, it delivers stable throughput and reduced manual intervention throughout the machine’s lifetime.

“The P2000e wasn’t developed to be a smaller shredder. It was developed to deliver the robustness, stability and cutting performance of our larger platforms in a compact machine built specifically for municipal solid waste.” Jens Vestergaard Nielsen, CTO, M&J Recycling

eDrive performance that pays off

At the heart of the P2000e is M&J’s industry-leading eDrive technology, changing the lifecycle economics of high-volume bag-opening and MSW shredding. Lower energy and maintenance requirements help reduce operating costs and total cost of ownership over the machine’s lifetime, while lower noise levels provide an additional operational benefit.

The P2000e can deliver energy savings of up to 65% compared with the hydraulic P2000. With M&J’s advanced UltraBoost software, the P2000e continuously adapts power to the actual load. It uses less energy when demand is lower while making additional power available when required, helping operators maintain high throughput without using more energy than the operation demands.

The single-shaft design and eDrive technology also mean less time and resources spent on maintenance and service, while simpler installation adds another practical advantage for operators.

“Customers don’t invest in technology for its own sake. They invest in uptime, lower operating costs and equipment they can rely on every day. That’s exactly what the P2000e was engineered to deliver.” Jens Vestergaard Nielsen, Chief Technology Officer, M&J Recycling

With the P2000e, M&J Recycling takes more than 25 years of proven MSW performance into a new electric generation. As the latest addition to M&J’s industry-leading eDrive range, it combines high-capacity shredding with lower lifecycle costs.
