Dual Shaft Shredders
Dual Shaft Shredders utilize two shafts that counter-rotate and are ideal for a variety of destruction and primary size-reduction applications.
Dual Shaft Shredders are often used for document destruction, e-scrap, and product destruction as well as pre-shredding tissue, wood scrap, tires, counterfeit goods, household products, and automotive parts for further processing.
Dual Shaft Shredders offer a variety of cutter configurations to process material, while avoiding jams, to offer high continuous throughput. They may utilize a ram to assist with cutter engagement if the product being shredded has a frictionless exterior.
Dual Shaft Shredders are low-speed, high torque industrial shredders that result in lower heat and dust generation than high-speed, low torque shredders.
