Terex Recycling Systems launches electric low-speed shredder

Equipment manufacturer Terex Recycling Systems, Dungannon, Northern Ireland, has introduced the TDS-820SE, a static electric low-speed primary shredder. The company says the machine is designed to efficiently handle a wide range of materials, including construction and demolition scrap, commercial and industrial scrap and municipal solid waste.

Terex says the TDS-820SE has powerful twin shafts and is equipped with aggressive teeth to deliver exceptional shredding performance and thorough material reduction. One of its standout features, according to the company, is its customizable shredding programs, which allow operators to tailor the machine’s settings to their specific requirements, optimizing performance and minimizing downtime. The independent shredding shafts are designed to further enhance the machine’s versatility, enabling it to handle a variety of materials with ease.

The TDS-820SE is powered by an electric hydrostatic drive, providing reliable operation and protection against contamination. Additionally, Terex says the bidirectional shredding capability allows for greater flexibility in material processing. The shredder’s two-meter-long shafts, featuring fully welded teeth, offer “impressive” throughput and “excellent” material reduction.

To further improve efficiency and reduce wrappage, Terex says the TDS-820SE incorporates independent gear boxes, allowing each shaft to be operated separately, adding that this feature is beneficial when processing challenging materials. An integrated transfer conveyor simplifies material handling, streamlining the overall recycling process.

“We have further expanded the already proven shredding technology from our existing mobile portfolio with the added benefit of electric power, adding to the TDS-V20SE medium speed shredder launched last year,” says Kenny Hull, product and commercial manager at Terex Recycling Systems. “The TDS-820SE represents a significant advancement in shredding technology. Engineered with customizable features and a robust design, this machine delivers exceptional performance across a wide range of applications.

“This, along with its versatility and efficiency make it an ideal solution for waste management, construction and demolition and industrial recycling. The first unit has already been produced and is successfully integrated into a recycling line in England, proving its reliability and value for businesses looking to optimize their recycling operations.”
