Equalizor – The shredder for mixed waste streams
Komptech is launching its new Industrial system line with the Equalizor. This single-shaft shredder is designed to handle changing feedstocks of commercial, bulky and domestic waste. Its cutting-type shredding unit can handle these types of waste without problems. The focus is on turning out a homogeneous product with high throughput. To do this, it has a precisely adjustable cutting gap between the drum and counter-cutter, an automatic pre-compressor and high-efficiency direct drive. To ensure continuously consistent material quality, the Equalizor also has a screen basket. Customers can choose among various screen opening sizes, and can change baskets easily and safely by means of the swing-out screen basket frame.
The Equalizor is a climate-friendly all-electric machine. Mobility is available in the battery-powered tracked version. “With the Equalizor we offer a tough mid-stage shredder for 20 to 400 millimetre particle sizes. Two more ‘Industrial’ shredders will follow, for coarse pre-shredding and precise post-shredding,” reports Ewald Konrad, Chief Sales Officer (CSO).
