WL 6 S – High-performance shredder for wood waste

User-friendly operation makes day-to-day use easier. The Siemens PLC enables centralised control of all relevant machine functions via a clearly laid-out control panel. Parameters can be adjusted quickly, thereby reducing set-up times and ensuring reproducible processes.

High throughput enables the cost-effective processing of large quantities of material. The robustly designed rotor, with its optimised blade arrangement, ensures reliable material feed and continuous shredding. This results in consistent throughput rates whilst maintaining stable energy consumption during industrial operation.

Process reliability reduces downtime and the need for manual intervention. The hydraulically controlled feed gate feeds the input material evenly to the rotor. This prevents material bridging, reduces load peaks and ensures a stable shredding process even when material quality varies.

High availability reduces maintenance requirements and operating costs. The rotor bearings are structurally separated from the crushing chamber and effectively protected against dust and foreign matter. This design reduces wear and extends service life in continuous operation.

A consistent final particle size facilitates downstream processes. The interchangeable screening system determines the maximum particle size of the crushed material. Thanks to the quick screen changeover, the machine can be flexibly adapted to different requirements without interrupting the production flow.

A long service life reduces maintenance costs and capital expenditure. The WEIMA WAP gearbox is designed for high torques and continuous operation in industrial environments. Its robust design, tailored to the shredding process, minimises mechanical wear and contributes to consistent machine performance over the long term. This makes the WL 6 S a reliable partner for industrial applications.

A consistently high throughput ensures that the plant operates at a steady capacity. The optional turbo-hydraulic system increases the speed and force of the hydraulic material pusher. This allows the material to be fed to the rotor more quickly and evenly, enabling stable throughput rates during continuous industrial operation, particularly when processing bulky or voluminous feedstock.

Smooth machine operation improves the working environment. The vibration-damping feet minimise vibrations and structure-borne noise. This protects both the machine and its surroundings and enables stable operation without the need for fixed floor anchoring.
