West Salem Machinery introduces 'super shredder' for green waste

West Salem Machinery (WSM), Salem, Oregon, has introduced its Biomass Super Shredder, which the company says allows processing of a wide range of incoming green feedstock--pulp chips, micro-chips, in-woods chips, sawdust, shavings, and hogged wood--for improved drying and sizing for pellet manufacturing.

The WSM Biomass Super Shredder is specifically designed to deliver high-capacity and high-speed milling of green fiber at rates from 10 to 75 tons per hour. Available in rotor diameters of 42-inches, 48 inches, and 60 inches and rotor lengths from 36” to 88” long, these massive machines typically operate with 150 – 1000 HP. Features include modular and adjustable tooling with either rigid or swing hammers with replaceable inserts; large screen area with modular sizing screens to allow adjustment to product sizing; and heavy duty housing with interior wear liners and pivoting case access for long life and ease of maintenance. When combined with a WSM pre-screen, processing rates can reach up to 100+ tph. System integration into your wood handling system is no problem – WSM offers complete infeed and outfeed options to help you supplement your fiber supply with lower cost fiber from the WSM Biomass Super Shredder.
