VPC - Pallet crusher

Optimal pre-shredding of large-volume and bulky components made of wood

For the pre-shredding of large-volume and bulky components such as boxes and pallets made of wood, we have developed the Vecoplan Pallet Crusher VPC 1600. This can be combined with the single-shaft shredder VHZ 1600, which then processes the pre-shredded material directly into homogeneous wood chips or briquette-ready material. This allows you to increase throughput by up to 50 percent. The special feature: In the VPC, the material is not cut, but crushed. This creates enormous advantages in the pre-shredding process and reduces the quantities of wear parts.

VPC 1600 - Fit for many different processes

The Vecoplan VPC twin-shaft crusher is used for primary crushing of bulky wooden components such as pallets, crates & cable drums.The innovative rotors in the VPC 1600 pre-crush the wood before it is re-shredded by the cutting crowns of the VHZ rotor below.

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.
