AZ100/2 75kW Dual Shaft Shredder

The AZ100/2 is a heavy-duty 75kW dual shaft shredder designed for tough, bulky waste streams where strong “grab” and torque matter. It’s commonly used for MSW, RDF, paper, timber, tyres, MDF boards and other demanding primary shredding duties.

Two key reasons:

• 305mm shaft centres (wide spacing) helps bulky items be engaged and drawn into the cutters.

• Large 130mm hexagonal shafts and a heavy-duty driveline support high torque delivery at low speed.

Typical applications include MSW, RDF preparation, paper, timber, tyres, MDF boards, and other tough industrial streams. Final suitability depends on the exact stream (size, contamination, density), feed method, and cutter configuration.

As a primary shredder, the AZ100/2 is not intended to produce tightly controlled fine particle sizing on its own. If you need a consistent final size, this is typically achieved with secondary shredding/sizing downstream or a screened quadshaft shredder.

The AZ100/2 can be supplied with 31 / 47 / 70 / 94mm cutters.
Cutter choice is typically driven by:

• material type (bulky vs dense, rigid vs mixed)

• the level of reduction required (volume reduction vs higher reduction)

• downstream handling (conveying, storage, secondary processing)

If you describe your stream (or provide a sample), we can recommend a configuration that suits your outcome.

The AZ100/2 is specified for 3-phase 415V / 50Hz supply and uses a 75kW drive (2 × 37.5kW).
Your electrician should confirm site protection, cabling, and installation requirements.

As a guide, the AZ100/2 specification lists:

• Full load current (FLC): 134A

• DOL starting current: 1072A

If starting current is a constraint on your site, ask us about suitable control/starting options.

The AZ100/2 can be supplied with VSD or DOL control with auto reverse and overload protection.  The best option depends on your stream, feed method, duty cycle, and site electrical constraints. VSD control is often considered where you want softer starts, more control over speed/torque, or to better manage starting current.

The AZ100/2 cutting chamber is specified as:

• Length over cutters: 1498mm

• Cutting chamber width: 813mm

This large chamber is a major reason it suits bulky, awkward materials.

Overall dimensions are approximately:

• 3900mm (L) × 1500mm (W) × 765mm (H)

• Weight: ~8000kg

Always confirm final footprint plus service access clearances during layout planning.

Key features include:

• 130mm hexagonal shafts

• Planetary reduction gearboxes

• High torque / low speed operation

This combination is designed for robust torque transfer and heavy-duty service.

A hot dip galvanised casing provides a durable protective coating that helps resist corrosion in industrial environments, particularly where moisture or corrosive contamination may be present.

Optional seal protection plates help protect seals in harsher environments—for example where fines, contamination, wet material, or abrasive content may be present. If your stream is dusty, abrasive, wet, or contaminated, ask whether seal protection plates are recommended for your duty cycle.

We typically confirm:

• material type + piece size

• contamination and moisture

• required shredding outcome

• feed method (loader, conveyor, hopper, etc.)

• downstream handling/secondary processing goals

If you can describe your stream (or provide a sample), we can recommend cutter width, controls, and integration options that suit your duty cycle and site constraints.

Yes. The AZ100/2 can be supplied as a standalone shredder or integrated with feeders, hoppers, conveyors and discharge arrangements to suit your process and site layout.
