The CAMEC GL 900/35 is a single-shaft shredder designed by CAMEC engineers to combine power and efficiency, ensuring extremely high performance even when processing complex waste streams. It is the ideal machine for quickly and effectively shredding a wide range of materials – from plastics to municipal solid waste, including rubber and textiles – and delivers excellent results even when handling bulky urban and industrial waste.
For this reason, the GL 900/35 is the perfect shredder not only for common MSW but also for mattresses, WEEE, and many other large-sized waste items. Its special drive system ensures controlled particle size reduction, while its Industry 4.0–compliant technology enables automated, fast, and efficient operation, guaranteeing optimal processing of diverse waste types.
Technical features of the GL 900/35 shredder
At the heart of the GL 900/35 is its 3500 mm rotor, equipped with hardened steel blades and Hardox500 counter-blades, which are highly resistant to wear. The rotor is powered by two three-phase electric motors of 200 kW each, connected to a high-performance hydraulic transmission system, for a combined installed power of 400 kW.
This particular drive system makes the shredder exceptionally powerful and efficient, ideal for facilities that demand high performance and operational continuity: the machine can process up to 25 tons of waste per hour, reducing it to a controlled particle size.
Beyond its power, the GL 900/35 stands out for reliability and ease of operation. Designed according to Industry 4.0 standards, the shredder is equipped with a PLC controlled via touchscreen interface and integrates remote monitoring systems, as well as self-diagnostic, remote diagnostic, and predictive maintenance functions that allow early detection of malfunctions or potential issues. The shredder can also be fitted with maintenance compartments with automatic opening, as well as advanced acoustic insulation and safety systems designed to simplify operator interventions and ensure the highest safety levels.
The intuitive interface further simplifies and improves operator tasks, enabling the launch of pre-set recipes designed for the most effective treatment of different materials, achieving excellent performance even in shredding bulky waste such as mattresses or WEEE.
Like all CAMEC shredders, the GL 900/35 can be customized and adapted to meet client requirements: it can be modified to integrate seamlessly into existing processing lines, and its compact footprint makes it highly versatile and suitable for a wide range of operating environments. In addition, the shredder can be equipped with specific accessories, such as a hydraulically adjustable screen designed to provide even more precise control of output particle size.
The power of the GL 900/35 shredder, combined with its versatility and adherence to the highest safety standards, makes this machine a reliable, automated, and high-performance solution. It is perfect for organizations managing bulky waste who require a system capable of safely handling heavy workloads.
