Metal shredder: Austrian metals recycling specialist Schaufler invests in new UNTHA XR3000

A world-renowned UNTHA XR3000C was first trialled back in March 2019, using Schaufler's own materials. Impressed with the equipment's high throughputs and low wear rate, the organisation has since invested in an metal shredder of its own. The UNTHA Eco Power Drive concept within the XR also lowers energy consumption by 75% compared to standard electro-hydraulic drive options. Maximum efficiency is achieved by using state-of-the-art synchronous motors, making the UNTHA Eco Drive one of the most energy-efficient drive systems on the market. In addition to its high throughput capacity and energy efficiency, the XR3000C is easy to maintain and operate. Now fully commissioned, the high-performance solution is configured to achieve throughputs of 20 tonnes per hour for copper cables, 8 tonnes for aluminium and 10 tonnes for composites. The XR range consists of highly economical, slow-running single-shaft shredders which were specially developed for the coarse, medium and fine shredding of untreated household waste, industrial and commercial waste as well as waste wood. However, minimum operating costs combined with maximum performance make these shredders particularly powerful solutions for recycling applications too. More than 250 XRs are already in operation worldwide. Find more Information about our metal shredders please visit our website https://www.untha.com/en #metalshredder
