Permanent hard use in processing

Vecoplan AG
A ripper with HiTorc-drive

The VRZ series is suitable for pre-shredding in recycling plants and the primary wood industry - especially for difficult, tough materials. It shred's domestic, commercial & bulky waste and biomass. The combination of a ripping shredder with the torque drive is something fundamentally new.

Operators save energy costs

The dynamic, powerful start-up and torque HiTorc series ensures efficient operation.

Because there is less mass to be propelled, the motors - drives with 2 x 138 kilowatts of power - achieve a favorable level of efficiency.

Absolutely insensitive to impurities

The developers placed great emphasis on a robust design.
In this way, components such as wear-resistant and replaceable sealing elements at the rotor and side wall prevents materials from sticking between the front surface of the rotor and the machine housing. Instead of conventional cutting tools, it is equipped with sickle-shaped ripping teeth. Unlike cutting tips, the teeth are armoured.

The VRZ shredder is robust, resistant to impurities, reliable and low-maintenance, making it ideally suited for the processing of roots interspersed with minerals or from waste wood contaminated with impurities

The machine safely break up  bulky materials, the shredder simply "tears the material apart". Even material interspersed with impurities, such as roots with minerals or waste wood interspersed with nails, is therefore no problem.

For example, the VRZ 2500 has an open cutting table. This makes sure that stones and other extraneous materials to fall through the cutting unit without shutting down the machine. This has been proven in extensive practical tests with different materials and successful continuous operation.

Low-maintenance operation

The drives have no mechanical components such as belts, clutches or hydraulic units, so hardly any maintenance work is needed compared to hydraulic drives.

The optimised machine design also means that the cutting frame and rotors can be replaced quickly, and time-consuming maintenance work such as reinforcing welding work can be performed outside the machine, significantly reducing downtimes.

VRZ – Vecoplan Ripping System

Tearing apart the input material has an impact on all components. For this reason, the VRZ is designed to be very robust and the HiTorc is an electromechanical drive without maintenance-prone mechanical elements.

We are happy with the overall result on every level. What fascinates us is the combination of reliability and performance. Vecoplan implemented a very stable high-tech solution for us, which has paid off.
Yalcin Abdullah , RDF Kontamine
Manager assistant / Environmental Engineer
From the start, we were able to work with Vecoplan very closely, constructively and in search of the best possible solution. The work and input we provided ourselves were brought together seamlessly thanks to good project management.
Berrin Rabia ANDI , RDF Kontamine
Plant Manager & Environmental Manager
As our solution provider, Vecoplan has designed and implemented an optimised and complete system for us down to the very last detail. The shredding concept is a complete success in terms of output quality, performance and efficiency. We are very happy with the Vecoplan RDF processing plant. The system has been continuously reliable. The Vecoplan Live Service offers the best support for all ser-vice and maintenance work.
Emil Dichev , Ecoinvest
Managing Director
The chipboard industry needs material that meets strict quality criteria. With the complete solution from Vecoplan, we can reprocess large quantities of wood waste at an excellent quality – fast, reliably and energy efficiently.
Peter Lamers , Baetsen
Directeur Recycling
Right from the start, our new plant works trouble-free. We are very satisfied with the Vecoplan solutions.
Giuseppe Invernizzi , Invernizzi
Vecoplan developed individual solutions for fuel feeding and the processing according to customer request. The system runs continuously and generates green energy.
Patrick Meyer , T.B.M.
As Engineering Manager, I was convinced that the slow speed re-shredding offered by Vecoplan, was key to minimising fines production. Vecoplan's solution is also incredibly efficient, thanks to their HiTorc-Drive technology. The entire plant is fully automated and can exceed the specified 60 tph.
Steve Ellison , Plevin
Plevin Engineering Director
For us as system operators, it is important that the system runs ... and it runs.
Markus Vögele , EBL
Project manager
For us, the protection of the environment as well as the reduction of CO₂ emissions are not just empty phrases but determining factors. Due to Vecoplans conveying system the entire transport route of bark and chips could be relocated in lofty heights above the buildings and streets of Södra – and had been executed to our complete satisfaction.

The launch of the TDS V20 from the Terex & Vecoplan partnership is revolutionising the mobile shredding industry. The Vecoplan VNZ 200 XL H chamber offers the unique combination of medium speed shafts, an accurate cutting action, sizing screens and tramp material protection. Our customers are benefiting from one pass production and minimal fines creation, reducing running costs and maximising profits.
Conor Hegarty , Terex® Environmental Equipment
International Sales Director
The highest priority in this project was to ensure that the specific requirements were met and that the system had a very high level of availability with low power consumption.
Roland Dietler , Caliqua AG
Project Manager
Vecoplan projects are always new and always different. Each project brings new challenges, experiences and insights. That's what makes it so exciting.
Michael Müller , Vecoplan AG
Project Manager
Vecoplan is one of the most innovative companies in the industry. This requires the will to perform, creativity and personal commitment from the employees every day. My job is to motivate the team to achieve top performance together. Vecoplan offers the best conditions for this, a high degree of appreciation and the necessary freedom to make a difference.
Martina Schmidt , Vecoplan AG
Senior Vice President Recycling
20 % of Vecoplan employees have been with the company for 20 years or more. Add to that young junior staff and colleagues who join us from other companies, and you have a healthy and effective personnel structure with which we can achieve a lot.
Stefan Maschel , Vecoplan AG
Director Human Resources
Vecoplan operates internationally - this gives us at service unit the opportunity to travel to different countries and meet a wide variety of people.
Uwe Zimmermann , Vecoplan AG
Service Technician
Application engineers at Vecoplan have to understand customer requirements and convert them into technical solutions - an exciting and demanding task that I enjoy.
