The HAMMEL shredders work “green”-Stage 5 as standard

Authorities around the world are under pressure to coordinate emission standards, in order to equalize engine emission approvals for different markets.

Already since one-year HAMMEL Recyclingtechnik GmbH has been implementing the new emissions standard for several machine types for a year. Both the HAMMEL shredder of the VB 650 series with the CUMMINS B 6.7 engine and the “RED GIANT” with its 760 PS CAT C18 engine are already working „green“. The company‘s bestseller, the HAMMEL-shredder type VB 750 is currently being converted to Stage 5.

What does it mean? The new EU stage 5 emissions standard is meanly responsible to limit the value of the particle concentration, to reach this the machines requires diesel particle filters (DPF).

What changes the customers will recognize?

• the machines are equipped with the latest motor technology
• increased injection pressure for highly efficient combustion of the fuel
• cooled exhaust gas recirculation to reduce nitrogen oxide emissions
• diesel particle filter (DPF) to reduce the particle content
• the filter burns free itself and rarely needs to be regenerated

At the end of the year, all other models will also be converted to stage 5 and will complete the green range. In addition to the environmentally friendly and energy-saving aspect, the HAMMEL shredders offer high flexibility, user-friendliness and multifunctionality. The shredders work with multifunctional tool shafts and enable the shredding of a wide variety of materials such as waste wood, fresh wood, railway sleepers, household waste, industrial waste, bulky waste, and light mixed scrap.
