Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between the RTMS-C120/5 and C120/3 models?
The primary difference is the blade thickness and count. The RTMS-C120/3 (3mm blades) has more, thinner blades, producing a smaller final particle size, ideal for fine shredding. The RTMS-C120/5 (5mm blades) has fewer, thicker blades, offering greater robustness for tougher, bulkier materials.
Can this machine run continuously?
The shredder is designed for intermittent use, typical for workshops, labs, and small-batch processing. While it has a robust motor, for continuous, 24/7 industrial applications, we would recommend exploring our larger shredder models.
What is the warranty and support policy?
All RTM machines come with a comprehensive 1-year limited warranty covering parts and manufacturing defects. We provide full support from our UK base, including technical assistance and spare parts availability.
How often do the blades need replacement, and what is the maintenance process?
Blade longevity depends on the materials being shredded and usage frequency. For general use, we recommend a professional inspection every 6-12 months. The H13 steel blades are highly durable and can be rotated to extend their service life. Replacement is a straightforward process, and new sets can be ordered directly from us.
What should I do in case of a material jam?
The control panel includes an emergency stop and a reverse function. In the event of a jam, immediately stop the machine and use the ‘Reverse’ function to clear the obstruction safely. The high-torque gearbox is designed to handle tough materials, but it is important not to overload the feed hopper.
What is the operational noise level? Is it suitable for an office or lab?
The RTM Compact Shredder is engineered for quiet operation, with noise levels significantly lower than traditional industrial shredders, making it well-suited for workshops, laboratories, and small-scale recycling facilities. While quieter, we recommend placing it in a designated area in noise-sensitive environments like offices.
How can I order spare parts?
You can order all genuine RTM spare parts, including replacement blade sets, directly from us. Please use the inquiry form on our website or contact our support team, and we will be happy to assist you with your order to ensure you get the correct components for your model.
