Nowadays, intelligent and energy-saving disposal technologies have become more popular than ever. The reason: the future lies in waste. WEIMA already provides tomorrow’s solutions today. The completely revised WEIMA PowerLine and FineCut series are not only significantly more robust and easier to operate, they also provide active support during the process. This benefits everyone being involved.

What are the technical innovations?

Material supply has changed significantly. A new swing ram technology being installed in the cutting chamber is applied here that operates significantly faster and needs less power. In this process, the swing ram is guided on rolls. It can also be equipped with an extended ram plate for materials with a low bulk density. There are additional benefits in terms of maintenance. Thanks to its optimized design, the swing ram can be moved out of the machine frame towards the top. As a result, accessing the system becomes considerably easier.

The feeding process of the shredder is equally user-friendly. Material (also in bails) can be fed directly by using a wheel loader for example. This is possible due to the very low feeding point and an adaptive sub-frame. Depending on the design, the machine height amounts to 1,900mm or 2,900mm. True to the motto ”customized, no standard solution”, each machine’s degree of individualization is demonstrated by variable hopper attachments.

The cutting technology is equally important. In order to achieve a more aggressive material infeed, WEIMA also optimized the counter knives. Now they are installed at an angle. In this process, both the upper and lower counter knives can be adjusted externally by screws. Consequently, an ideal shredding gap can be configured in no time. The modular concept of the counter knives additionally simplifies their replacement for maintenance purposes.

The re-designed screen basket features similar characteristics. WEIMA now focuses on multi-part screen segments that can be variably replaced on the inside and outside and stretch across the entire working width. The corresponding segments total 500mm or 1.000mm.

However, it’s not just the inside of WEIMA waste shredders that is worth mentioning. The machines external characteristics also score high marks in terms of design and functionality. Their basic, cubic shape is extremely compact and provides easy access to all shredder components. The covers attached to the sides protect the drive from dust, humidity and the elements and serve as a practical tool storage unit. The covers also reduce noise emissions.

Which drive would you like?

WEIMA provides plenty of drive options. Depending on the application, customers can choose from a total of three different concepts – hydraulic drive, direct drive or power belt drive. Thanks to components for pre/post-shredding, WEIMA is a full service provider for single/multi-stage waste processing. Visit the shredder specialists in hall C2, booth 207.
