Get FinancingVermeer’s Innovative LS3600TX Low Speed Shredder Processes A Wide Range Of Material
Vermeer recently launched the LS3600TX low-speed shredder, capable of processing a wider range of materials than a tub grinder or horizontal grinder. The innovative single-shaft shredder can process contaminated waste streams while critical components of the machine remain protected.
The Vermeer LS3600TX was designed with waste facilities and land clearing operations in mind and can handle light construction and demolition waste, wood waste with contaminants, municipal solid waste, and more.
“For 30 years, Vermeer has been a leading manufacturer of high-speed grinders,” says Jeff Bradley, Vermeer Recycling and Forestry product manager. “During that time, recycling has become a common practice at public and private waste handling facilities and has become another source of revenue for many organizations. To help our customers optimize their processing capabilities and handle a wider range of incoming materials, we have developed the LS3600TX low-speed shredder. This shredder allows companies to process contaminated materials not suited for a tub or horizontal grinder.”
Built For Quiet Operation & Durability
The LS3600TX is powered by a 456-horsepower (340 kilowatts) Cat Tier 4 Final/Stage V engine and runs at a lower noise level of 111.9 dB(A). The shredder has a tracked undercarriage for repositioning it on the jobsite as needed. The machine also has a full-function remote control that operators can use to adjust the feed, view machine data, and diagnose fault codes from a safe distance.
The shredder has a 10.1-foot (3.1-meter)-long rotor with wear-resistant plates and dual-bolt tips to maintain the clamp load. Individual bolt-in comb teeth, each with two usable edges, extend the life span of the shredder. A reversible mechanical transmission with an external torque limiter automatically disengages the drive when maximum torque is reached to protect the driveline from objects that the LS3600TX can’t shred.
Vermeer LS3600TX Easy Maintenance
The LS3600TX is easy to maintain and service with large access doors, multiple ladder points, and a sizable service platform. The shredder has a hydraulic access system that gives full exposure to the rotor, comb, and belly conveyor, which can also be removed without the need to detach the discharge conveyor to further simplify maintenance.
An optional cross-band magnet that reduces steel contaminants from the end material is also available.
