VDZ – Combined shredder-granulator

Compact and united – The well-proven combination of shredder and granulator

The newly developed machine has been jointly designed by the Tubes Aachen granulator specialists Heinrich Dreher GmbH & Co. KG and Vecoplan AG. The machine combines the expertise of two German machine and equipment engineers under one machine housing. The machine shreds the input material to the desired output grain size in two stages, ready for reuse in the production process. With this two-stage shredding solution, you can achieve a throughput rate of up to 1,500 kg/h.

From bulk to granulate with a single machine The VDZ 1100 combines cutting and shredding in just one machine. The direct combination of granulator and shredder eliminates the need for conveyor technology and also means lower connection and consumption costs. The machine housing is a thick-walled, ribbed steel construction. The machine base is an integral part of the machine. This reduces noise emissions and enables further simplified noise protection measures.
