System solutions for residual wood recycling

UNTHA, the Austrian premium manufacturer of innovative shredders for residual wood recycling, showcased its expertise in system solutions and comprehensive range of consulting and services at LIGNA, alongside its proven RS and LR model series of wood shredders. Countless visitors travelled from all over the world, including Europe, Australia, New Zealand, South America and North America.

"The recycling of residual wood is becoming increasingly important, both for economic and ecological reasons. And there is also growing interest in practical system solutions consisting of shredders, metal separators and conveyor technology. Our customers are looking for individual and efficient solutions for residual wood recycling that require virtually no maintenance. And that is exactly what UNTHA offers," says Josef Gruber, Head of Global Sales and Business Development BU Wood at UNTHA.

Wood shredders and system solutions

UNTHA has been synonymous with reliable wood shredding for decades. That is why the company presented its proven single-shaft wood shredders LR630, LR700 and LR1400, including conveyor technology and metal separators, at LIGNA. The 4th generation RS30 4-shaft shredder was also unveiled to the expert audience for the first time.

The wood shredders can be used as stand-alone units or integrated into processing lines and system solutions. When shredders, conveyor technology and metal separation are optimally tailored to each other, residual wood of all kinds is processed practically by itself, allowing operators to concentrate exclusively on their core business: "With our system solutions, we offer customers individually tailored recycling plants for their residual wood, where they don't have to worry about a thing. The residual wood enters the shredder, is evenly shredded and foreign materials are removed by metal separation. The homogeneous raw material is then transported by conveyor technology to storage rooms or silos. From there, it is supplied to in-house heating systems, which thermally recycle the wood chips," Josef Gruber continues.

Quality and consulting expertise

The company stands for the highest quality and reliability in all areas. This applies not only to the shredders themselves, but also to the comprehensive consulting and services. The UNTHA team provides its customers with comprehensive support: from initial consultation and planning to design, installation and commissioning. And even after that, UNTHA is available to its customers and provides support with original wear and spare parts and extensive services. In addition, all wood shredders from the Austrian manufacturer come with a 3-year worry-free warranty.
