Why Invest in the FibreShred 800?

This machine combines robust construction, intelligent controls, and efficient performance to deliver tangible benefits to your operation.

Enhanced Durability

Tempered 45 steel shafts paired with SKD-11 cutting knives provide superior resilience against wear and heavy loads.

Improved Efficiency

Delivers approximately 300 kg/h throughput, rapidly turning waste into assets and streamlining your recycling operations.

Advanced Operator Safety

Automated overload protection and jam-reversing functions safeguard both the equipment and the operator.

Energy-Efficient Design

The direct-drive connection and high-torque reducer minimise energy loss, making it cost-effective to operate.

Minimal Downtime

Designed for easy access and maintenance, ensuring blade replacements are quick and interruptions are kept to a minimum.

Increased Waste Density

Significantly reduces the volume of waste materials, making them far easier and cheaper to handle, store, and transport.

Engineered for Unmatched Reliability

From the core shaft to the control system, every component is selected for performance and longevity.

  • High-Strength Cutting Tools
    Cutting tools manufactured from high-strength alloy steel deliver reliable shearing performance across varied plastic objects.
  • Direct Drive with Shock Absorption
    The drive couples deeply to the main shaft and the reducer integrates a shock absorber to cushion buffering forces.
  • PLC Automation & Protection
    Delta PLC control provides overload protection plus automatic reverse/forward functions for smooth, jam-free operation.
  • Hydraulic Feed Cart Control
    A hydraulic ram governs feed speed with adjustable advance rates, keeping material delivery stable and responsive.
