Proven WEIMA design for reliable performance
-
Innovative “V” Rotor with two rows of knives for consistent shredding
-
Heavy-duty WEIMA WAP gearbox for long service life
-
Logspacer hopper for processing larger materials
-
Offset rotor bearings for reduced wear and maintenance
-
Load-related feed control for smooth operation
-
Enclosed hydraulics for protection and longevity
-
Discharge adaptor ready for air extraction, screw, or belt conveyor systems
WL 6 Shredder – Versatile and Robust
The WEIMA WL6 wood shredder is engineered for higher input volumes while maintaining exceptional reliability and efficiency.
Key Benefits:
-
“V” Rotor technology for precise and efficient shredding
-
Logspacer hopper for larger materials
