W5 series | Single-shaft shredder-2

TECHNICAL HIGHLIGHTS Easy machine operation thanks to PLC control with large touch panel Master the most difficult materials effortlessly with the universal V rotor Measuring 500 mm in diameter and up to 2,200 mm in length, the V rotor of the W5 series was designed for ambitious throughput targets with high flexibility. Thanks to its innovative design, even large start-up lumps, hollow bins and very voluminous parts pose no problem. WEIMA's latest shredder generation also uses only the latest technology in a compact space for the control cabinet. The shredder, as well as the peripherals – including...

Convenient maintenance and optimum rotor access thanks to generously sized inspection flap The most striking feature of the W5 machines is certainly the built-in inspection flap. As soon as the swing ram is secured in its upper starting position, the wide access from the rear can be opened hydraulically. You are now in the middle of the cutting chamber and have plenty of space to remove foreign matter from the rotor or to carry out maintenance work at a comfortable working height. Optimized material feed through innovative swing ram The W series from WEIMA is characterized by its distinctive...

W5 series | Single-shaft shredder-4

TECHNICAL HIGHLIGHTS HIGH-TORQUE OR HYDRAULIC DRIVE? You have the choice Depending on the application, we offer two heavy duty drive concepts: The hightorque drive with a high-torque, multi-pole synchronous motor is produced by Baumüller in Germany and is distinguished by its insensitivity to foreign materials. Without a gearbox, the drive withstands shocks and vibrations and thus has a particularly long service life. The Hägglunds / Bosch Rexroth hydraulic actuator is very responsive – at a low connected load. Stopping, starting, and reversing is possible even under full load. Speed and torque...
