Wood waste shredders from WEIMA

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.

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.

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.

Anyone who wants to produce energy from their wood waste in an environmentally friendly way should consider wood waste shredding. The wood chips can be used for direct heat generation in combustion plants or for the production of briquettes.

Typical applications include all kinds of hardwood and softwood, waste wood, OSB and MDF, veneer, plywood, stairs, doors and pallets. And don’t worry. Their nails and screws are simply shredded with them. Later they can be easily separated with a cross-belt magnet upon discharge.

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.

Scrap utilization and wood waste shredding with WEIMA

No matter what you call your machine– wood chipper, wood grinder or wood waste shredder – with a WEIMA you shred everything to the last chip and dispose of your wood waste sustainably.

As a pre-shredder, the Woodwolf is available for large-volume residual wood waste such as pallets or furniture. With our universally applicable shredders of the WL series, e.g. WL 4 or WL 15 , you can achieve highest throughputs. For even smaller material sizes we offer secondary shredders of the WNZ series .

Barrel Staves shredding

Every woodworker needs a WEIMA

This was already the case when we were founded in the 1980s and will not change in the future. All joineries, carpentries, wood shops, cabinetmakers, truss manufacturers, dimensional lumber suppliers, sawmills and (industrial) furniture workshops of all sizes inevitably generate residual wood waste from production. These must be disposed of or reused in some way.

Why is it necessary to have homogeneous particle sizes when shredding waste wood?

A homogeneous particle size is particularly important in the thermal utilization of wood waste, since heating plants are often designed for a standardized grain size. If the particle size is not sufficiently homogeneous, wood chip heating systems operated with screw conveyors can quickly become clogged. The formation of material bridges also prevents smooth firing of the system.

In addition, the safety of the firing system can be impaired if excessively large or long chips block safety devices such as the rotary feeder.
For the production of high-density briquettes, homogeneous wood chips are essential as well. Only in this way can wood briquettes keep their shape stably without binders and glue.
