We can offer you an efficient solution for these jobs – our VPC pallet crusher. Combine this pre-shredder with our VHZ series single-shaft shredder and you’ll increase your throughput by up to 50%!

The highlights of the new VPC - Pallet crusher

Combined solution of VHZ 1600 & VPC 1600

The VPC 1600 can be combined with the VHZ 1600 single shaft shredder. A sliding frame connects the shredder and primary crusher. This combined pre and re-shredding process increases throughput by up to 50 percent. The VHZ is compact, powerful and universal and can therefore be used for a wide range of residual wood shredding applications. Until now, it was necessary to select a correspondingly large machine for large and bulky components. The combined solution of VPC 1600 and VHZ 1600 achieves a high throughput with a small footprint and lower costs.
