THE RIGHT WOOD GRINDING PARTNER FOR YOUR WOODWORKING SCRAP

We build wood grinders, shredders, chippers and the underlying technology in-house in Denmark. Scanhugger is known for its superior quality and reliability when shredding woodworking scrap. With more than 40 years of experience building and servicing wood shredders in woodworking plants all over the world. We are the ideal partner for your shredding needs.

WOOD SHREDDERS

The ideal solution can vary greatly pending the materiel, but in general smaller pieces of woodworking scrap, as offcuts and shavings, has a higher output in a slow rotational shredder. The offcuts are feed vertically into the loading bay in the shredder where a hydraulic press pushes the material towards the rotor. The advanced Smart Ram-system controls the pressure of which the wood scrap is pressed against the rotor. The output material of the shredder is a less refined wood chip than the chipper – between 20mm and 80mm pending screen and knife setup.

WOOD CHIPPERS

The wood chipper also called drum chipper is unique in its capability of processing solid wood, i.e. blocks, slabs, and panelboards into a uniform chip. The benefits of fast tuning shredders, also named woodchippers, is a very similar-sized wood chip, as the wood isn’t shredded apart, but cut off in a horizontal infeed chipper. The output material is a uniform wood chip between 5mm to 35mm, pending blade, screen, and rotor setup. It is horizontally fed with either a vibrational or regular conveyor.

WOOD RE-SHREDDERS AND HAMMERMILL

The Scanhugger re-shredder and hammermills are a secondary wood shredder system that further reduces wood chips to a fine granulate, sizing between 6mm and 15mm. The solution is ideal for pellets and briquetting. The vertical feed re-shredders and hammermills work with a fast-rotating drum. The re-shredders rotor design combined with the knife crown arrangement is ideal for re-shredding almost any kind of pre-shredded material.

The hammer mill, also known as a pulverizer, works according to the principle of impact grinding. Its core consists of a rotor with non-wearing impact hammers and external rolling bearing housing. The Scanhugger Hammermill is highly suitable for grinding coarse chips of solid wood, particleboard, and MDF into a predefined particle size ranging from 6 – 15 mm. Depending on the material you need processed and the particle size of the final product, the hammermill can be mounted with different screen and hammer combinations to fit your requirements.
