The Vecoplan RG 32 ANIV is a heavy-duty, low-speed, high-torque single-shaft shredder designed for reliable primary size reduction of tough and bulky materials. Featuring a hydraulically driven feed ram, robust rotor with replaceable knives, and interchangeable sizing screen, this machine delivers consistent throughput while minimizing wear and jamming. It is well-suited for processing insulated wire and cable, plastics, wood waste, RDF, and other industrial scrap, making it an excellent choice for recycling and material recovery applications.
