Product catalog summary
Company Overview
BHS-Sonthofen is a German company specializing in machinery and plant engineering, focusing on mixing, crushing, recycling, and filtration technologies. With over 300 employees and a global presence, the company has more than 100 years of experience in crushing technology and has expanded its portfolio to include cutting technologies through the acquisition of AMNI Maschinenbau GmbH.

Universal Shredder Overview
The NGU Universal Shredder is a high-speed, single-shaft machine designed for cutting various materials such as paper, textiles, wood, and plastics. It offers a cutting size range of 10 to 120 mm and features quick screen replacement, contaminant removal, and a powerful drive system. The shredder is designed for high throughput and low processing costs, making it suitable for recycling facilities and manufacturing industries.

Machine Design
The shredder includes an infeed hopper, a solid forged rotor, versatile blades, a segmented screen unit, and a frequency-controlled drive. The modular design allows for easy maintenance and consistent cutting quality. The rotor bearings are isolated to protect against heat and dust, enhancing their service life.

Functionality
Material is loaded into the infeed hopper and pushed by a hydraulic slide towards the cutting system. The material is cut between the rotor blades and a static counter-blade, with the size of the discharge material determined by the screen's hole pitch.

Testing and Specifications
BHS offers testing facilities to evaluate machine parameters and optimize configurations. The technical specifications include different models with varying drive power, rotor speed, and dimensions. The NGU 0513 and NGU 0518 models are detailed with specific performance data and dimensions.

Fields of Competence
BHS-Sonthofen's expertise spans mixing, crushing, recycling, and filtration technologies, supporting their role as a comprehensive solution provider in mechanical process engineering.

Quick and Simple Screen Replacement Powerful Drive System The segmented screen can be changed within a few minutes. This is advantageous when destroying files, for example, if different protection classes are applicable in successive batches. The granulator is driven by a V-belt drive at a freely configurable speed. At 80 to 240 rotations per minute, the rotational speed range is very high. If contaminants enter the machine, the drive is immediately switched off via an integrated contaminant detection function. Convenient Removal of Contaminants As contaminants can never be fully prevented from...

The loose feed material is loaded into the infeed hopper, which is individually adapted to the material and type of feeding. 2 The rotor is produced from a solid forged part. A rotating wear protection element protects the rotor edges at the housing mounting point from wear. 3 The blades of the rotor and static blade seat are versatile and can be rotated or replaced in just a few steps. The style, quality and number of blades is configured to match the specific application at hand. 4 The screen consists of multiple segments that can be replaced individually. The screen support can be rotated...

Static Blade Seat with Blade Segments The modular static blade seat is equipped with multiple blade segments. This modular design enables easy adjustment of the blades and ensures consistent cutting quality. Movable Base Plate A hydraulically movable base plate simplifies the removal of contaminants and facilitates access when performing maintenance work. Isolated Rotor Bearing The rotor shaft bearings are located in a double-walled housing. This protects the shaft bearings from the effects of heat and dust, which increases their service life. Hydraulic Pusher Unit A hydraulically driven slide...

Functional Description The loose feed material is loaded into the infeed hopper. A hydraulically driven slide pushes the material along the base plate and toward the cutting system. The feed material is cut between the rotor equipped with blades and the counterblade on the static blade seat. Once the cut material reaches a defined particle size, it falls through a screen basket downwards and out of the machine. The size of the discharge material is defined by the hole pitch of the screen. It can range from 10 to 120 mm.
