The UNTHA XR3000 shredder is the perfect solution for recycling waste wood quickly and in an energy-efficient manner. It can shred approx. 40 tonnes of material per hour in a single pass, reducing it to a grain size of 100 mm. A metal separator on the discharge conveyor belt ensures that metal parts (nails, screws) are sorted out. The result is a homogenous wood fraction that can be recycled, for example into chipboard or pallets, or used as high-quality fuel in biomass or heating plants, depending on the wood quality.
XR3000 – highly versatile
‘The UNTHA XR3000RC mobil-e combines all the features we need to shred different materials: thanks to the RC cutting system, the intake behaviour is optimal even with difficult materials, and the output is always of consistently high quality. At the same time, the shredder is energy-efficient and low-maintenance,’ says Thomas Schenker, Managing Director of Schenker Industrie- und Städtereinigungs GmbH.
The XR3000 shredder (mobile-e or stationary) is particularly impressive due to its wide range of applications, high throughput rates and energy efficiency. The XR is a slow-running single-shaft shredder that is particularly resistant to foreign objects and requires little maintenance. The XR can be customised to suit the individual application and final grain size of the input material, for example by using different perforated screens and cutting systems. The cutting system ensures optimal material intake and, consequently, an efficient shredding process. Thanks to water-cooled synchronous motors – UNTHA Eco Power Drive – the XR3000 is up to 75 per cent more economical than comparable diesel-powered shredders.
‘We use the UNTHA XR3000RC as a mobile and stationary shredding system in our company. The RC cutting system allows us to process a variety of waste materials, such as waste wood, mixed construction waste and bulky waste, reliably and in an energy-efficient manner,’ said Karlheinz Pfleger, Plant Manager at Breitsamer Entsorgung & Recycling GmbH.
This recycling and reuse process ensures that wood, a valuable resource, is used in a sensible, ecological and economical way.
