Efficiently shred wood waste into valuable raw material with WEIMA.
To generate energy from waste in an eco-friendly manner, utilizing wood as a raw material is essential. The residues, once shredded into wood chips, can be used directly for heating in furnaces or for making briquettes.
Customer applications: Wood shredding with WEIMA
Practical examples of successful wood processing with WEIMA chippers.
The different series and rotor variants are the top solutions for wood processors: Whether pallets, sawn timber, chipboard or MDF boards, stairs, window frames, doors or semi-finished wood products - our machines turn everything into valuable small timber.
No matter what you call your machine. Whether wood chipper, chipper, shredder or shredder – with a WEIMA you can shred everything down to the last chip and dispose of your wood waste sustainably.
As a pre-shredder, you can use the Woodwolf for large-volume waste wood such as pallets or furniture. With our universally applicable shredding machines from the WL series, e.g. WL 4 oder WL 15 , you can achieve the highest throughputs.
Customer applications and examples
From the woodworking and wood processing industry
Industrial shredding solutions from WEIMA
Industrial users benefit from the high performance and robust design of WEIMA’s shredding solutions. The shredders are specially designed for shredding large quantities of wood waste such as sawn timber and hardwood or softwood. With single-shaft technology, a wide variety of wood waste can be shredded efficiently, enabling further processing into wood chips or briquettes. WEIMA offers reliable solutions for industries that focus on resource efficiency and sustainability.
The dissimilar sawn timbers are sorted according to quality.
Every carpenter and joiner needs a WEIMA
Every joinery, carpentry or carpentry workshop produces wood waste every day – this was already the case in the 1980s and will not change in the future. With WEIMA shredders, this waste can be efficiently shredded and recycled. Whether wood chips, cuttings or dust, WEIMA ensures that waste wood is not lost but used as valuable biomass or raw material for briquettes and wood chips. This not only saves space, but also reduces disposal costs and works sustainably.
Biomass briquettes burning in a furnace
Efficient residual wood utilization - Wood waste can be used as wood chips for combustion, for biogas production, for briquetting for domestic heating or for sale, and can be further processed for the production of chipboard.
Shredding solutions for CNC and milling waste
Whether planer, band saw, circular saw, sanding machine or wood lathe – wood chips, sanding dust and sawdust are produced during wood processing. CNC machines and milling machines also generate wood chips and dust. WEIMA shredders allow this waste to be recycled efficiently. Specially developed shredders for CNC milling waste and chippers for bandsaw and circular saw waste transform wood waste into wood chips, which not only reduces disposal costs, but also enables further processing of the valuable raw material wood.

Why do you need homogeneous grain sizes when shredding waste wood?
A homogeneous grain size is particularly important for the thermal utilization of waste wood, as heating systems are often designed for a standardized grain size. If the grain size distribution is not homogeneous enough, wood chip heating systems that are operated with screw conveyors can quickly become blocked. The formation of material bridges also prevents the system from firing smoothly.
In addition, the safety of the firing system can be impaired if excessively large or long wood chips block safety devices such as the rotary valve.
Homogeneous wood chips are also essential for the production of high-density briquettes. Only in this way can wood briquettes retain their shape without binders and adhesives.
