VIZ - High performance shredder

Infinitely flexible - the ingeniously-adaptable shredding machine for reusable materials

Your challenge is frequently changing material with different requirements? The new Vecoplan shredder offers a correspondingly efficient
and adaptable machine concept in the smallest possible space. Couple this flexibility with low investment and operating costs
and you will experience efficient process stability.

VIZ - Vecoplan Infinity Shredder

Able to handle anything

The VIZ was specially developed for applications in the processing of a wide variety of plastics with a high degree of flexibility in the equipment. In the meantime, however, the shredder has also proven itself in other areas, such as data and document destruction. You can choose between different drive types, rotor geometries and cutting crowns - exactly matching your specific requirements. Two different sizes of the VIZ machine series allow a working width / rotor length of 1300-2100 mm. This allows a throughput of 800-6000 kg to be achieved.

The highlights of the new VIZ recyclable material shredder

Revolution of the W- and V-rotor -
infinitely customisable and easier to maintain than ever before

The new rotor solution from Vecoplan offers numerous advantages in terms of cutting geometry: thanks to the concept of bolted tool holder plates with variably executable cutting tip sizes, rotor changes are a thing of the past.

You decide what drives you!

Configure the Vecoplan High Performance shredder to match your requirements and choose between the HiTorc drive with its powerful start-up phase and high torque, or the ESC belt-type, direct drive. Both types are characterised by many advantages: frequency-controlled drive, variably adjustable speed range, foreign object detection, high dynamics due to fast reversing and restarting in the material, low maintenance and low wear.

 

Your advantages at a glance

  • Maximum flexibility
  • Low investment and operating costs
  • Highest availability
  • Hardly any losses due to lowest fines content
  • Shortest amortisation periods

Features

You have the choice between the maintenance- and wear-free and almost noiseless HiTorc drive with synchronous motor without mechanical drive train. It features the highest possible torque at low speed and starts smoothly even when the machine is full.

... or you can choose the ESC drive, an intelligent, self-regulating drive concept with slippage detection in real time, which is recommended due to its cost-effective operation.

The W/V rotor offers high throughput rates and ensures homogeneous output quality with low fines content and little grain variance. Depending on the size, the rotor can be designed with 3 or 5 times the number of cutting tools.

The profiled U-rotor with toothed counter knife can be designed with 1 to 3 times the number of cutters, depending on the size.

An optimised machine design has resulted in an enlarged shredding chamber for feeding closed bales starting from VIZ 1300. In addition, a second counter knife can be integrated at a later date.

An improved ram height makes the VIZ suitable for shredding bales and bulky pieces. In addition, this minimises the distance to the rotor, which leads to a reduction in material residues. The pulling design of the hydraulics also offers many advantages as well.

The swing-away screen is robust and guarantees simple, fast and safe screen changes. The variable positioning of the screen segments enables a maximum wear part life cycle. Adaptation to the required output grain size is achieved by different sieve perforations.

The integrated and intuitive VSC.control operating panel serves as a communication medium for the modern control system and as a link to our technicians. Of course, you can also use it to operate the machines easily and intuitively. This is an enormous relief, especially when you have to process different materials with different requirements. The VSC.control panel is designed for durable and robust operation in a demanding environment. 

The setting of some components can also be changed directly via operating points on the machine - this applies on the one hand to the sieve.....

...but the counter blade can also be adjusted via a control point on the machine frame.

Convince yourself of the unlimited flexibility for unlimited requirements.

Our highly efficient shredder VIZ, Vecoplan Infinity Shredder, is particularly flexible: by configuring the cutting geometry and screen selection, it can be adapted in detail to the input and output requirements. It also impresses with high availability, low operating costs and maximum throughput.

File folders, paper documents

Analogue data storage still plays an essential role even in this digital age, and this is why the data protection-compliant destruction of sensitive files and documents belongs in the hands of experts.

CDs, DVDs, floppy disks

Optical media such as CDs and DVDs have now replaced magnetic data carriers such as floppy disks. However, both variants are still subject to strict destruction regulations.

Waste paper

Wastepaper collected from households & commercial companies and even misprints from the printing industry are efficiently processed in paper industry plants to produce new paper, cardboard and paperboard.

Cardboard, paper tubes

The use of transport packaging will continue to play an essential role in the future, making it all the more important to keep the recycling rate as high as possible to conserve energy and resources.

Production waste

The requirements for handling production rejects range from destroying misprints at publishers to reducing the volume of waste temporarily stored in print shops and preparing it all for paper recycling.

Paper industry waste

Braids, spits, bears or fibre residues are the recyclable residues in paper recycling. The technical jargon under the collective term: pulper waste. As a leading specialist for shredding technology, we know what is important in this application. Pulper waste is diverse. The plastic it contains can be used thermally. The metal wires but also existing non-ferrous metal can be reused as recycling material.

Textiles & Non-woven material

Textiles or woven materials made from natural materials such as wool, cotton or synthetic & blended fabrics are processed into fibres in unique processes. For impurities such as buttons, zippers, etc., reliable separation technology is used in the plant.

Hard plastic

In contrast to the processing of lightweight packaging, which is primarily well organised today, hard plastics were still often thermally recycled in the past. However, the recycling rate of these materials is now also increasing thanks to optimised treatment processes.

Big bags and bulk material containers

In order to return extremely tear-resistant plastic fabrics such as big bags to the production cycle, they have to be processed. The key component for this is the shredder. The more efficient the shredder, the safer the subsequent processes. With Vecoplan, these robust and often contaminated connective tissues can be efficiently processed.

Film

Regranulates can be created as secondary raw materials from packaging, agricultural film, composite film, etc. The treatment process for this includes shredding technology, separation and sorting technology, washing and subsequent extrusion.

Packaging

As the demand for high-quality regranulates increases, closed-loop recycling is playing an increasingly important role in the material recovery of plastics, and this is why shredding is a critical process step since it is a preliminary stage for the subsequent sorting of recyclable materials.

Fibres, filaments & yarns

The particular challenge in the mechanical treatment of used cords and yarns is not only that they are made of highly tear-resistant, thin and partly viscoplastic material, but they are also tangled and contaminated by stones, wood debris and other impurities.

Hollow body containers

As the demand for the use of recyclates made from polyolefins – especially HDPE and PP – is constantly increasing, the collection and processing of these containers are also playing an increasingly important role. Here we must ensure that we adapt our machines and plants to the requirements of the materials.

Start-up lumps

The processing and recycling of waste from the plastics processing industry is economically attractive due to the savings in costs for new raw materials. Plastics processors can enable a consistent quality. This issue is significant when using engineering plastics with the highest mechanical properties since they are costly to produce.

Pre-Products

The recycling of plastics which are expensive to produce due to their technical properties and are often used to manufacture semi-finished products offers some potential savings for manufacturing companies. However, clean separation of the different plastics is a prerequisite. The pure regranulate obtained can then be used to produce sophisticated plastic components.

Film

Waste generated during production should, if possible, be returned directly to the internal production cycle without any losses or loss of quality. If such in-house recycling is not possible due to company-specific constellations, external recycling companies can also process film waste.

Fibres, filaments & yarns

For all their differences, the residual materials from the production of fibres, filaments and yarns share some particular mechanical properties: Toughness and high wear and tear resistance, combined with a high degree of elasticity. These present particular challenges for the shredding process.

Production waste

More and more plastics processing companies that manufacture a wide variety of plastic products are taking advantage of the opportunity to return production and process waste to the internal cycle. This saves raw material costs, plus the disposal costs for external recycling plants.
