XR-XC Single-stage Fine Shredding
The XR-XC is designed for operators looking to efficiently produce solid recovered fuel (SRF) in a single-stage process. It processes pre-processed, contaminant-free materials as well as plastic bales in one pass, delivering a consistent particle size of 0.4–3.1 in (10–80 mm) and high throughput rates.
- Single-stage fine shredding
- Low-speed operation for reduced wear and noise
- Consistent particle size from 0.4–3.1 in (10–80 mm)
- Designed for easy maintenance and high uptime
A wide variety of material streams—whether heterogeneous, bulky, contaminated with foreign matter, or particularly voluminous—can be optimally processed with the XR-RC shredder.
A dedicated maintenance access point allows for quick removal of foreign objects, minimizing downtime.
This shredder is available both as a stationary machine and as a mobile-e (semi-mobile) machine with a crawler track.
Easily accessible service and maintenance points reduce downtime and maximize machine uptime.
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 XR-XC is designed for operators looking to produce high-quality solid recovered fuel (SRF) quickly and efficiently. It processes pre-processed, contaminant-free materials as well as plastic bales in one pass, delivering a consistent particle size of 0.4–3.1 in (10–80 mm) and high throughput.
A rugged machine design ensures reliable, continuous operation, even in demanding conditions. The powerful electric direct drive delivers efficient, high-performance shredding, while easy access to service and maintenance points simplifies upkeep, reduces downtime, and maximizes uptime.

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.
The XR-XC is designed for operators looking to make SRF production more efficient, flexible, and cost-effective—without compromising on quality or throughput.
- Waste management companies: Reliably process pre-processed, low-contamination material streams or single-material plastic bales to a defined particle size in one pass, with consistent quality and high throughput.
- SRF producers: Process multiple material streams in parallel while maintaining the flexibility to position secondary shredding within a single facility or across multiple locations.
The XC cutting system is equipped with an integrated feed-through pusher, ensuring controlled and uniform material feed. It is ideally suited for processing pre-processed or metal-separated materials for recycling or energy recovery. The four-sided, indexable knives and adjustable static bars can be replaced quickly and easily, reducing maintenance time and lowering operating costs.
From commissioning to hard surfacing, cutter changes, and regular inspection and maintenance activities, we look after your shredder throughout its lifetime.
For special requirements, we offer custom-made accessories for this shredder.
The adjustable main cutting bar offers you the option to adjust the cutting opening. The shredder can be optimally adjusted for the material to be shredded and the required discharge fraction.
This option is only available for the C cutting system.
Our shredders are available with either synchronous or asynchronous drives. Both drive types are powerful and designed for different applications. The selection of the appropriate drive is based on the material, required throughput, and specific operating conditions to ensure reliable and efficient shredding.
The UNTHA Eco Power Drive is a beltless synchronous direct drive for high-torque applications and demanding continuous operation. Two water-cooled synchronous motors with load-dependent speed control transmit power directly to the rotor and automatically adjust torque and speed to the material. This ensures efficient and consistently high throughput.
The high efficiency significantly reduces energy consumption—especially during 24/7 operation. The low-noise, wear-free direct drive operates without belts, which demonstrably reduces maintenance requirements. The UNTHA Eco Power Drive is the best choice for companies that expect maximum energy efficiency and process stability when processing demanding materials in multi-shift operation.
Every operation has unique requirements, and site conditions can vary significantly. That’s why all XR-class shredders are available in both stationary and mobile-e (semi-mobile) configurations, providing flexibility for different operating concepts, material flows, and site conditions.
Both configurations are built on the same proven shredding technology and deliver equivalent performance.
A stationary shredder is the most cost-effective choice when handling consistent material flows at a fixed location, serving as a fully integrated part of an overall plant. Typical applications include sorting plants, screening lines, or SRF/RDF processing facilities operating continuously in multi-shift or 24/7 mode. These setups often feature a high degree of automation and existing infrastructure, including reliable power supply. The shredder can be fully integrated into the existing infrastructure, both mechanically and via control systems, for seamless operation.
