Visitors to IFAT 2016 will be able to see the recently launched new UNTHA XR mobil-e – the “world’s first electrically-driven mobile shredder” will in action.

With the same design features as the static XR, which will also be on display at the show (hall C2, stand 127/226), this mobile solution is said to provide customers with identical benefits – high throughputs, low operating costs, energy efficiency, low noise, foreign object protection and ease of maintenance.

The XR mobil-e is claimed to be the first machine of its kind to shred with a low power electric drive and, thanks to its on-board auxiliary power pack, it can be easily moved around a production facility and plugged back in.

The shredder was said to have already been extensively trialled across Europe, to prove its flexibility when shredding MSW, C&I, C&D, wood and other bulky wastes to produce waste derived fuel. However, IFAT will be the first time the machine is demonstrated to the general public.

An XR mobil-e will be on display on UNTHA’s open air site (12C, stand 9). But a free shuttle service will also transport IFAT attendees from Messe München to a nearby operational site, several times each day.

Anyone making the 20 minute journey will be able to see the XR shredding technology in action, shredding a variety of waste materials. UNTHA said that its client will also be on hand, in addition to a its own team of s engineers, to answer any questions that visitors may have.

“We regularly invite existing and potential clients to our Austrian headquarters, so that they can speak to our team about their projects and see our machines being manufactured,” commented UNTHA product manager Christoph Lahnsteiner.

“However, the opportunity to get up close to one of our shredders under real operational conditions proves that our technology achieves what we say it does,” he added.

Designed to provide customers with maximum flexibility, both the XR and the XR mobil-e can manufacture a wide range of high quality fuels for waste to energy applications, as well as cement, gasifier and biomass markets.

A series of interchangeable screens and cutters enable these shredders to be configured according to the output specification, with homogenous particles of 30-400mm achievable.

IFAT will take place on May 30 – June 3, at Messe München, Messegelände, 81823 München (Munich).
