NEW – Plastic Film & Fiber Shredder - from Vecoplan, LLC

Vecoplan, a worldwide leader in size reduction technology, introduces the new RG42K-XL F industrial shredder. The RG42K-XL F was specifically designed to shred plastic film in the quickest and most efficient manner possible. Engineered to solve the “self –feeding” problem associated with flexible, high tenacity materials “the RG42K-XL F is economical to purchase, economical to operate and delivers a very quick ROI” according to Marty Kennedy, Vecoplan’s Executive Vice President.

The RG42K-XL F features Vecoplan’s patented SureCut shredding system that delivers built-in 2-stage auxiliary size reduction, in a single pass. Other features include a special reinforced close tolerance screen configuration, and an application specific “wedge” fixed counter knife. Designed for high throughput, the shredder also has built-in metering capabilities and thermal monitoring controls. In addition to preventing film from wrapping around the cutting rotor during processing, the SureCut system also delivers precise cut lengths. The RG42K-XL F’s 42”x 52” hopper in-feed opening provides true dump and run operation for a wide variety of loose or baled plastic films, as well as short pile carpet. The shredding chamber employs a patented Vecoplan single shaft U-Rotor, that is 15” in diameter, powered by a 60 hp drive motor, and embedded with, 48 standard plus 28 nip, cutting inserts. Each inexpensive, bolt-on cutting insert can be rotated to four different wear points before replacement.

“As with all Vecoplan shredders, the RG42K-XL F comes with our lifetime rotor warranty and our equity buyback guarantee,” adds Kennedy.
