Shredders
Shredders may be broadly classified as either flume—chips are brought to the shredder in the coolant stream, or radial—chips are introduced to the shredding face with a radial action. Shredders may be hydraulic or mechanical, with single or dual drives, in a variety of sizes and integrated with conveyors, dumpers and other equipment to ensure efficient, consistent sizing and throughput.
Radial Shredders
Rotary (radial) shredders size and meter wet chips and separate solids generally at the machining center.

Rotary ring shredder
A unique feature of the rotary shredder is its ability to discharge solids, separately from the chips, into a collection container. This rotary ring shredder solved an application’s challenge of space constraints.
