Heavy-Duty Shredder for the Toughest Materials
- The Titan among shredders
- Built for high-demand applications
- Rugged single-shaft shredder designed for durability and reliability
- Handles challenging materials, including tough plastics and difficult-to-process waste streams
- Designed for low maintenance and reduced operating costs
Shredding of mixed production waste, plastic sprues, molded parts, pipes, profiles, compressed film bales, and waste wood.
A rugged, wear-resistant design combined with easy access to the cutting chamber and key service areas reduces maintenance requirements and minimizes downtime.
The versatile C cutting system can be configured with 1–3 rows of blades and 35–101 cutting teeth, allowing the shredder to be optimized for a wide range of materials.
Depending on screen size, cutting configuration, and material composition, the system delivers throughput rates of approximately 2–8 tons per hour. The MR1800 is also designed for continuous-duty operation, maximizing uptime and overall productivity.
Designed for the most demanding jobs, this single-shaft shredder handles a wide variety of materials with ease.
Advantages of the MR1800C PRO
The MR1800C PRO is a rugged, single-shaft universal shredder built for hard-to-process production waste and continuous-duty operation. It handles tough plastics and other challenging materials with ease. Depending on the perforated screen, the shredder delivers throughput rates of 2–8 tons per hour. An external slide gate ensures the full feed width can be used, allowing even heavily compressed bales to be reliably opened and shredded.
The MR is designed for plastics processors, compounders, recyclers, and industrial manufacturers who need a durable shredder with low operating costs.
Cost-Effectiveness
The MR1800C PRO delivers stability, reliability, and long-term value for your operation. The shredder is powered by the proven UNTHA Power Drive, a powerful direct-drive system featuring an asynchronous motor, a maintenance-free safety clutch, and a planetary gearbox. The beltless design eliminates typical weak points found in conventional drive systems, while the integrated clutch protects the cutting system and drivetrain from damage caused by foreign material. This reduces costly downtime and maximizes uptime and productivity.
A key success factor is the C-cutting system: With it, the MR reduces various material streams to a defined particle size in a single-stage processing process. Thanks to bolted blade holders, the cutting unit can be individually adapted to different materials: up to three rows of blades and 101 cutting blades can be installed. Rotor blades that can be used four times, as well as reusable main and secondary cutting bars, significantly extend service life and reduce wear costs (costs per ton). The precisely adjustable cutting gap produces a uniform, consistent granulate that meets the requirements of downstream processes.
The external, maintenance-free curved scraper with claws ensures continuous material feed. Even high-volume or difficult-to-handle materials are consistently delivered to the cutting unit. Intelligent scraper control automatically adjusts the feed, optimizing machine utilization and overall productivity.
Service and Maintenance
The MR1800C PRO was engineered to simplify maintenance and reduce downtime: A hydraulic service flap provides direct and safe access to the cutting unit for removing foreign objects, changing blades, and performing cleaning tasks. Maintenance is fast and ergonomic, helping to minimize downtime. When changing batches, the cutting chamber and slide floor can be cleaned in an upright position, ensuring consistent material quality.
The hydraulically lowerable screen basket allows for screen replacement within approximately 15 minutes. Three identical, individually replaceable screen segments reduce spare parts inventory and simplify warehouse logistics. They can be changed by a single person. The drive unit and hydraulic power unit are also easily accessible. The robust, low-vibration machine frame is built to withstand heavy mechanical stress and provides the foundation for a long service life. The hydraulic quick-change screen system enables a single operator to replace screen segments in just minutes.
With the UNTHA Power Core, we offer you a powerful and flexible solution for the autonomous operation of our shredders – without the need for an external power source.
Whether to bridge shortages, for temporary use, or as a permanent power supply: with the Power Core, you achieve maximum flexibility in choosing the location for your shredder and maximum efficiency.
The MR1800C PRO processes plastic sprues with thick walls, thick-walled molded parts, large-volume pipes and profiles, compressed film bales, scrap wood, and mixed production waste without any pre-treatment.
The MyUNTHA customer portal gives you access to all your shredder data and useful features such as the spare parts catalog & online store, maintenance manager and the GENIUS digital assistance system. MyUNTHA supports you in your daily work with your shredder and helps to make processes even more efficient.
For special requirements, we offer custom-made accessories for this shredder.
Shredders can be equipped with different hoppers, depending on how the machine is fed and what material is being shredded. Closed hoppers prevent dust clouds from forming around the shredder.
From commissioning to hard surfacing, cutter changes, and regular inspection and maintenance activities, we look after your shredder throughout its lifetime.
