Sparta

“SPARTA” slow rotor shredders are machines designed for shredding every type of wood, essentially reducing the volume of large waste. The result, in terms of chip size, varies depending on the result you wish to achieve and the necessary uses. The shredded material, once it has been reduced, is suitable for the production of briquettes or pellets, always assuming that the wood does not contain adhesives or plastic.

Operating principle

The material being shredded is fed into the loading hopper either manually or through mechanical feed systems such as belts or mechanical shovels. The hydraulically-controlled feed chute pushes the material against the slow shredding rotor. The rotor, equipped with a series of hard metal reversible inserts, shreds the material with the aid of a fixed back blade. When the material is all fed in, the chute automatically retracts and repeats the cycle. The power transmission is carried out by belts that reduce the vibrations, prolonging the rotor’s service life. The shredded material falls through a sieve located around the rotor into the hopper below and is then removed through mechanical or pneumatic systems, depending on the model.
