UltraBoost – Smart Regulation, Instant Response, Clever Shredding

16 Sep 2025  |
At M&J Recycling, we know that for recycling facilities, performance is everything: higher throughput, lower operating costs, and reliable uptime. That’s why every M&J eDrive pre-shredder comes equipped with UltraBoost – our unique software feature designed to maximize capacity, minimize energy use, and protect your investment.

At its core, UltraBoost is powered by an intelligent regulator capable of performing 4,000 real-time reads per second. By monitoring key parameters such as current, torque, flux, and speed, it ensures the shredder always applies exactly the right amount of power at any given moment.

The result for your operation is clear:

  • Higher throughput – more material processed per hour
  • Lower energy consumption – no wasted power
  • Longer equipment lifetime – reduced stress on the system

How it works


UltraBoost uses advanced mathematical models and high-performance computing to continuously adapt to system demands. It automatically determines the exact power required and reacts instantly: ensuring the shredder follows the optimal performance curve without delay. By comparison, a standard VFD loses capacity and wastes power when not properly regulated in time.

The UltraBoost advantage

In side-by-side comparisons, UltraBoost delivers unmatched precision. Where conventional VFDs fall behind – consuming more energy than necessary or failing to provide enough power – UltraBoost keeps your shredder right on target. The outcome is consistent: no wasted energy, no lost capacity, just optimal efficiency across every waste stream.

Future-proof shredding with M&J Recycling

UltraBoost isn’t just smart technology – it’s intelligent optimization, built into every M&J eDrive pre-shredder. A prime example is the M&J P250e, a future-proof pre-shredder equipped with UltraBoost as standard. With flexible configurations and the ability to adapt to changing waste streams, the P250e combines secure, efficient, and reliable performance with some of the lowest costs per shredded ton on the market.
