Bulky waste treatment: why choose a mobile shredder

To efficiently manage bulky waste, it is necessary to have suitable spaces and machines available, since handling large-sized waste requires particular care during the transportation and loading phase of the material onto the shredder.

This is why using a mobile shredder can be the optimal solution for companies that handle bulky waste management: a machine like this can be moved and positioned close to the products to be shredded, optimizing loading times and reducing the time spent on the process and the periods of inactivity of the machine.

 

How a mobile shredder works

A mobile shredder - such as the models in the DRM line by Camec - performs the function of reducing the size of waste, working in the same way as a traditional fixed shredder. A mobile shredder is also equipped with two rotors and is completed by various accessories, such as interchangeable selection grills that allow for control and modification of the size of the output material.

The main difference with a fixed shredder lies in the possibility of movement and, consequently, the loading methods: if a fixed shredder is stationary and must be loaded through a hopper or conveyor belt, a mobile shredder is instead self-propelled on caterpillars, and can be moved to the immediate vicinity of the waste to be treated. This allows the machine to be positioned in any point of the factory where waste treatment takes place.

 

Why use a mobile shredder for bulky waste treatment

Bulky waste has characteristics that make it difficult to move quickly.

This difficulty can be partially overcome by choosing to use a mobile shredder, which can be moved close to the waste and positioned, each time, in the most convenient position for loading the specific material being treated.
This allows for:

  • Reducing processing times, since the possibility of moving the shredder to a more convenient position simplifies and shortens the loading and logistics activities within the factory
  • Optimizing shredder activity, since the time intervals required to bring the waste to the shredder can be significantly reduced by positioning the machine close to the waste, reducing the time the machine is inactive
  • Treating different types of waste, even thanks to the presence of safety systems - present as standard in the DRM line shredders by Camec - that reduce the risk of damage caused by inserting non-shreddable materials into the machine.
