Wood Chipper/ Shredder Mechanism

The wood shredder was invented by Peter Jensen of Germany in the late 19th century. Today they generally consist of a hopper in which the wood is placed, a shredder mechanism and a chute perhaps leading into a collection container for the resultant shredded material.

Often the shredding blades are mounted on a flywheel that is turned by an electric motor or an internal combustion engine mechanism. The shredded material generally consists of chips of wood ranging from 2.5 to 5 cm in size. These can be used as a ground cover or as raw material in the paper making industry. A heavy duty shredder or industrial shredder may be equipped with rollers to facilitate the steady movement of the wood into the shredding blades. It's worth remembering when you're looking for a wood chipper for sale that they come in various types. Most of the wood shredders used by commercial tree maintenance companies employ a steel disc mounted with blades as the shredding mechanism and produce wood chips of a fairly uniform size and shape. An industrial shredder machine may be fitted with a disc measuring 4.1 metres in diameter. Smaller machines, often designed for domestic use, may use low speed grinding rollers to shred the wood. Newer wood shredders have shredding mechanisms that consist of a large, motor powered steel drum. Another type of shredder for the more advanced kind of handling wood is the tree shredder crane. If you are looking for an industrial shredder for sale, there are much larger machines available that are capable of dealing with entire trees. These are often known as tub grinders and use carbide tipped flail hammers to shred material of up to 240 cm in diameter.
