Cumberland 50" x 24" Double Shaft Shredder (15 HP Electric)

Description of the Cumberland 50" x 24" Double Shaft Shredder (15 HP Electric)

When industrial shredding is needed, Cumberland has a full line to accomplish the task. Offered with electric or hydraulic drives, they are designed for ease of use, low maintenance, and durable performance. The Cumberland 50" x 24" Double Shaft Shredder with the 15 HP electric drive is a mid-range model featuring a large cutting chamber and two specialized shafts meant to perform under any demands. Equipped with two hexagonal shafts that will deliver greater cutting torque as they operate, this double shaft shredder can shred an assortment of materials. These materials include waste or rejects from such as steel drums, pallets, medical waste, tires, plastic or film, and more. The Cumberland 50" x 24" double shaft shredder is equipped with a contoured cutting chamber that operates like a self-cleaning unit. It automatically removes any accumulated materials that might prevent flow and cause drag against the motor. It also has the hexagonal shafts for greater performance. The through-tempered cutters along the shaft also guarantee top quality results and help to keep maintenance, repairs, and jamming to absolute minimal levels.

Clearly, the idea of a low to no maintenance shredding unit is an appealing option. The Cumberland 50" x 24" double shaft shredder increases this by using an oiling system that lubricates the gears to provide further protection of the various moving parts and the motor without risks of contamination.While all of this is ideal, it has to be remembered that double shaft shredders do not often have the same precision that triple shaft and screened units provide. Due to this, many are part of a multiple stage process for size reduction, reclamation, or granulating. The Cumberland 50" x 24" double shaft shredder partners well with such integrated systems as infeed and discharge conveyors, sorting systems and cyclone units, and additional shredders or inline granulators. Often, the use of such machines will increase the throughput rate of a granulator by substantial amounts. If you are looking for a shredder that can handle the widest range of materials, work at an industrial pace, and yet require little upkeep or maintenance, the Cumberland 50" x 24" Double Shaft Shredder with the 15 HP electric drive will prove a very effective and reliable choice.
