Shredders | Chippers | Branch shredders

• Efficiency on large volumes: ideal for treating large quantities of plant material.
• Energy saving : use the power of the tractor, optimizing energy consumption.
• Versatility of use: suitable for different types of vegetable residues, from thin branches to logs of greater diameter.

The use of bio-shredders for tractors is particularly suitable in agriculture and forestry, where the amount of residue to be handled is significant. These machines are also used in the maintenance of parks, public gardens and in all situations where it is necessary to reduce the volume of organic waste for its reuse as compost or for the production of biomass.

Choosing the best chipper shredder requires evaluation of several essential characteristics to ensure efficiency, durability and ease of use. Here is a list of the most important features to consider:

1. Power supply type: Bio-shredders are divided into petrol, electric and tractor shredders. The choice depends on the usage environment and the availability of power supply or a tractor.
2. Crushing capacity. The size and type of material that the bio-shredder can process (branches, foliage, vegetable residues) are crucial to meet the specific needs of the user.
3. Cutting system: Blades, rollers or hammers determine the effectiveness of the shredding process. Advanced cutting systems give a finer and smoother result.
4. Portability and size: Lightweight and compact shredders are ideal for domestic gardens, while larger and more robust models are preferable for professional or agricultural use.
5. Ease of Maintenance:: The simplicity of blade changes and machine cleaning ensures long service life and consistent performance over time.
6. Safety. Safety mechanisms, such as automatic stop and guards around cutting areas, are indispensable to protect the operator.

Evaluating these characteristics allows you to identify the shredder best suited to your needs, whether for domestic or professional use.

The shredders maintenance is essential to ensure their effectiveness and durability. Following some practical tips helps to keep your shredder in excellent condition, regardless of the type: Petrol, electric or tractor.

1. Regular cleaning. After each use, it is essential to clean the bio shredder to remove any shredded material that may obstruct the blades or internal mechanisms.
2. Checking and replacing blades Sharp blades are crucial for an effective chopping action. Check their condition regularly and replace or sharpen them when necessary.
3. Lubrication: Components such as bearings and moving parts must be lubricated periodically to ensure good fluidity of movement and prevent wear.
4. Checking the engine. For petrol-powered shredders and tractor shredders, it is important to check the engine, oil level and fuel system to ensure optimal performance.
5. Protection during inactivity. When not in use, store the shredder in a dry, covered place to protect it from the outside elements.
6. Security control. Ensure that all safety devices are functional and in good condition to prevent accidents during use.

By following these simple steps, your professional chippers, electric chippers or petrol chippers will remain efficient and ready to use whenever you need them

The shredder transforms branches, flakes and vegetable residues into small wood chips thanks to its simple operation:

1. Insert plant material into the hopper.
2. Start the engine.
3. The rotating blades shred the material into small fragments.
4. The wood chips are ejected from the exhaust pipe.

Choose the right chipper for your needs, considering the following factors:

Maximum diameter of branches to be shredded:

• up to 3 cm: electric shredder
• up to 5 cm: electric petrol-powered shredder
• more than 5 cm: combustion chipper

Type of material to be crushed:

• Branch only : shredder with blade system
• Also flakes and leaves: bio-shredder with roller system

Engine power:

• Electric power: 2000-2800W for domestic use
• Combustion power: 4-7 HP for professional use

Other Features:

• Safety system: Emergency switch, exhaust deflector
• Cutting capacity : adjustable for different wood chips sizes
• Easy to carry: integrated wheels, handle

Wood chips from the shredder are a versatile material with different uses:

1. Composting: the wood chips enriches the compost with nitrogen and carbon, promoting decomposition and the creation of a natural fertilizer.
2. Mulching: the wood chips lying on the ground around the plants reduce weeds, retain moisture and protect the soil from erosion.
3. Biofuel: Dry wood chips can be used as fuel for biomass stoves and boilers.
4. Litter for animals: the wood chips can be used as litter for poultry houses, rabbits and other backyard animals.
5. Horticulture: Wood chips can be used as mulch for flower beds and as material for creating paths.

The shredder is ideal for shredding:

• Branches: maximum diameter indicated in the manual of the shredder.
• Grass cuttings : fresh and dry, in small quantities.
• Pruning residues : leaves, shrubs, hedges.
• Dried flowers : to enrich the compost.

The shredder is ideal for shredding:

• Non-organic materials : plastics, metals, stones.
• Fibrous materials : alfalfa, hay, straw.
• Wet materials : can clog the shredder.
• Oversized branches : they may damage the shredder.

The ideal number of revolutions for a wood chipper depends on several factors:

• Type of chipper: Electric chippers generally have a lower number of revolutions than burst chippers.
• Engine power : a more powerful engine allows a higher number of revolutions to be achieved.
• Diameter of the branches to be crushed: for branches with a larger diameter, a higher number of revolutions is required.

In general, electric chippers have a number of revolutions ranging from 2000 to 2800 revolutions per minute, while petrol chippers can reach 4000 revolutions per minute or more.

It is important to choose a chipper with the right speed for your needs. Too low an RPM could make it difficult to chop branches, while too high an RPM could cause excessive fuel consumption and wear on the chipper.

Check your chipper's instruction manual to find the recommended number of turns for the type of material you want to shred.

Pellets and wood chips are both biomass fuels derived from wood waste, but they have different characteristics:

Pellet

• Shape: compact cylinders with a diameter of 6-8 mm
• Production: industrial process with dried and pressed sawdust.
• Calorific value : higher (4.7 kWh/kg).
• Use: Pellet stoves and boilers.
• Cost: generally higher.

Wood chips

• Shape: scales of varying sizes (from 1 cm to 5 cm).
• Production: shredding of branches, offsets and vegetable residues.
• Calorific value : slightly lower (4 kWh/kg).
• Use: stoves, biomass boilers and chippers.
• Cost: generally lower.
