The specialist for coarse materials whilst being incredibly gentle!

It turns bulky parts into a pourable material that can be transported away quickly, reliably and safely using conventional conveyor technology (conveyor belt or hinge plate belt). Even when using the RM-Ripper without a discharge belt, an enormous process optimization is achieved, since the material is free-flowing after comminution and is many times more compact than the original material.

Example of use:

RM1350 in use in the light metal foundry of a major car manufacturer. The customer´s requirement:
Within the scope of a rebuilding and new construction of several casting cells in the light metal foundry, the material flow also had to be optimized. Due to the given factory floor situation, there was only a very cramped space available below the casting cell, in the cellar below the factory floor. The ERDWICH Ripper RM was installed directly below the rejects discharge of the process robot of the casting cell. This reduces the bulky leftover pieces into a high-density pourable coarse granulate. Currently, the material is still collected in containers under the shredder which are then driven by forklift to the scrap container. Even with this first stage of the adaption, the efficiency of the casting cell was able to be significantly increased, since the exchange intervals of the collection container was manifold increased and also the bulky parts no longer got entangled with one another before the reduction process. In the second development stage, an automated filling unit for several material containers is planned, so that the material has to be transported from the cellar to the scrap container only once per shift. A third optimization step towards a complete automation of material disposal, with a conveyor belt feed to the scrap container, is planned for further plants.

Technical features:

Rugged twin-shaft rotor/shredder principle for forward and reverse shredder movement
Individually fitted, replaceable custom blades
Variable shredder system population
Externally-mounted shaft bearing
Dedicated shaft drives, plus custom gears mounted on flexible bearings
PLC unit featuring automated reverse and power down

Areas of Use – Pre-disintegrators and Two-shaft shredders:

Reduction of massive metal cast elements and punching burrs
Processing of electronic waste
Use in the automotive industry (fenders, coachwork, dashboards,...)
Reduction of refrigerators and air conditioning equipment
Processing of artificial turf
Conveyor belts, sandpaper, bulky waste.
and so on

For the pre-disintegration the ripper is especially suitable for dealing with bulky materials, which can subsequently be further reduced by a second pass.

Size reduction of cast component

Many light and non-ferrous metal foundries are faced with the difficult hurdle of dealing with bulky waste consisting of punching burrs or rejects, which are a hindrance to optimal processing.

Casting machines which involve the investment of many millions of euros cannot be used to their full capacity because production waste cannot be removed quickly enough.

But it does not have to be that way!

Safe reprocessing of cast elements - with us, no cast part can resist any more.

We help you with our shredders installed directly by the casting cell / die-casting machine. You have a wide range of shredders at your disposal to realize the most optimal solution:

The M600 single-shaft compact shredder for die-cast components up to 2 kg

The H480 two-shaft shredder for mid-size components up to 10 kg

The RM1350 ripper for large elements (2200 x 1400 mm) up to complete coachwork structure components from the automotive industry production

Advantages of size reduction of castings:

Less material loss
Better handling, as the material becomes pourable
Fast, reliable and process-safe discharge possible
Massive volume reduction
Increased process reliability
Rapid process refeeding of the material
Optimized re-heating behavior in the melting furnace
Increased utilization of die casting machines
Significant cost reduction
Easier recycling of the material
