Drum-type wood shredders
Drum-type wood crushers from manufacturer TechnoMashStroy are designed for efficient processing of wood waste into technical chips or sawdust. The equipment is suitable for woodworking enterprises, sawmills, furniture manufacturers, fuel workshops, farms, and pellet and briquette production complexes.
Purpose of drum crushers
Drum chippers of the ZUBR series are used for crushing branches, offcuts, small-diameter logs, edgings, slats, blocks, chunky waste, as well as particleboard (DSP), fiberboard (DVP), plywood, and other woodworking materials. The resulting raw material can be used for the production of fuel pellets and briquettes, preparation of chips for boilers with automatic feed, manufacture of particleboard, and smoking meat and fish.
The size of the finished fraction depends on the wood species, moisture content of the raw material, its shape, and the adjustment of the cutting unit. Therefore, when selecting equipment, it is important to consider not only the declared output but also the type of material, its maximum size, and the planned method of further processing.
Design features
Drum cutting unit
The main working element is a drum rotor with knives, designed for intensive wood processing. Large loading openings of certain models make it possible to feed significant pieces of raw material and reduce the need for preliminary cutting. The cutting system ensures stable crushing of prepared material and the formation of a fraction suitable for subsequent technological operations.
Feed and discharge conveyors
To organize a continuous work cycle, certain models are equipped with belt conveyors. The feed conveyor moves wood to the loading unit, and the discharge conveyor removes the finished chips or sawdust to a big-bag, container, trailer, or the next unit. This reduces the amount of manual work and helps stabilize raw material feeding.
Equipment advantages
- Versatility: processing of branches, offcuts, edgings, slats, particleboard, fiberboard, plywood, and other wood waste.
- High output: the category includes models for various production volumes.
- Process optimization: possibility of using feed and discharge conveyors.
- Preparation of various raw materials: finished chips can be directed to drying, sorting, pelleting, or briquetting.
- Industrial application: the equipment is suitable for autonomous operation and integration into technological lines.
- Convenient maintenance: the design provides access to the main working units and allows scheduled technical maintenance.
Application of finished chips
Crushed wood is used as fuel or technical raw material. Chips and sawdust can be sent to pellet and briquette production, used in boilers with automatic fuel loading, employed for the manufacture of wood-based panels, or used as raw material for smoking.
How to choose a model
When selecting a drum crusher, consider the required output, drive power, maximum size of input raw material, feeding method, and requirements for the finished fraction. For small volumes, compact configurations can be considered, while for continuous industrial processing — models with receiving and discharge conveyors.
TechnoMashStroy drum-type wood crushers are equipment for mechanizing wood waste processing and preparing raw material for further use in the production of fuel, granules, briquettes, and wood-based materials.
