M160 Dual-SHEAR® shredders process materials including: ▪▪ High Volume Municipal Waste ▪▪ Heavy Industrial Waste ▪▪ Oversize Bulky Waste ▪▪ Baled & Bulky Materials ▪▪ Steel Drums / Ferrous electric or Hydraulic Drive Hydraulic Drive When Processing: ▪▪ Mixed, unsorted materials ▪▪ Batch fed materials ▪▪ Installations requiring optional reduced voltage starting ▪▪ Materials requiring enhanced ▪▪ Materials containing nonparticle size or throughput shreddables control Electric Drive When Processing: ▪▪ Sorted, uniform materials ▪▪ Conveyor fed or metered materials ▪▪ Materials containing limited non-shreddables Independent Dual Drives Each shaft of the M160 is directly splined to the drive which allows maximum power to each shaft. It also means fewer gears; therefore, fewer parts and less maintenance. Also, each drive can be set independently to give varying speeds in the cutting chamber. This is a real advantage for optimum performance in many applications. SSI ADVANTAGES High-torque, low-speed design Auto reversal feature Delivers multipurpose shredding with greater on-line reliability and lower maintenance requirements than other technologies. Protects against shreddables. Patented ACLS - Advanced Cutter Locking System™ Convertible drive Eliminates daily requirement to tighten cutter stack while improving shredder performance and cutter life. Shock load protection feature Protects shredder and drive components. Electric version offers patented SSP - Severe Shock Protection™ controlled torque coupling. Hydraulic version utilizes multiple relief valves. Versatile design accommodates electric or hydraulic drive. Optional conversion package available. Proprietary bearing protection Isolates bearings from cutting chamber contamination and protects against bearing failure. Direct drive motor Provides improved efficiency and reliability. Alternate speed and torque combinations available.
