Food waste is an escalating global issue. In the United States alone, it's estimated that around 35% of food ends up being discarded. This not only represents a significant waste of resources but also contributes to environmental problems. When food waste is deposited in landfills, it decomposes and releases methane, a potent greenhouse gas. Consequently, the increase in food waste over the past few decades has become a major concern, highlighting the need for effective management and reduction strategies.
TASKMASTER® Shredders deliver remarkable shredding capabilities on a wide range of bulky solids and foodstuff at high volume. They can be fed manually, by conveyor or even by a bucket loader. These powerful shredders can reduce packaging such as boxes and containers, in under 15 seconds. They are ruggedly constructed for minimal maintenance and are typically supplied complete with stand, hopper and automatic reversing controller.
The TASKMASTER food waste shredders are specifically designed to be sealed from water and other liquids. These units can handle wet and dry materials with ease and are used for large and small-scale applications including excess, biogas, slurries, and process lines. These versatile units employ two parallel counter-rotating stacks of cutters that intermesh at low speed under extremely high torque. As the cam-shaped cutters intermesh at close clearance, they cut, shear, tear, slice, and rip apart food waste into smaller pieces typically in a strip or chip-like output shape.
