Doppstadt to highlight electric shredder options at IFAT

Velbert, Germany-based Doppstadt Group says it will showcase shredders featuring its electrically driven “resource-saving” shredders at the IFAT trade fair in Munich, May 30-June 3.

Electric-powered versions of its Inventhor 6 and Methor “stand out due to their extraordinary economic efficiency,” says the company. “Besides, they are extremely durable and help to keep operating and inspection costs down,” adds the firm.

“By collecting and recycling valuable resources, the activity of the recycling and waste management industry contributes substantially to the environment and climate protection,” says Dominik Niehaus, a product manager at Doppstadt. Critically, he says, “The technologies used must comply with this task.”

Continues Niehaus, “When developing new machines, we focus on efficiency and profitability.“ With the integration of electrified drives in the machines, Doppstadt says it can now offer buyers an attractive alternative to the customary diesel engine. 

At IFAT, Doppstadt says it will showcase the Inventhor 6 with electric drive; the multi-purpose single-shaft shredder Mehtor; and Doppstadt drum screens available with electric drives. “Compared to diesel engines, electric drives stand out due to their low operating costs – a decisive advantage in uncertain times,” states the company.

On the maintenance side, there is no need for tasks such as refilling diesel and the AdBlue additive. “Therefore, the machine productivity is increased considerably,” states Doppstadt. www.doppstadt.de

 The electrically driven machines produce no exhaust emissions, a benefit especially for the work indoors.

Niehaus remarks, “With the new electric variants we offer our customers a useful alternative to conventional diesel engines, which meets the highest demands on efficiency, profitability and user-friendliness.“
