The main technical difference is the rotor speed. As a rule of thumb: High-speed rotors may achieve more rounds per minute, but low-speed rotors have a higher torque. However, "slow" still means high throughput rates!

We only stock slow-running single and twin shaft shredders for a good reason. High-speed shredders are used in particular for secondary shredding, as they reduce the material to an extremely small size at high speed. Due to their speed, however, they often only switch off when they are already damaged in the event of an obstacle. The material should therefore be pre-sorted in advance and ideally also pre-shredded so that it is free of foreign objects. With our FORUS twin shaft and TEUTON single shaft shredders, you can shred directly. Our machines have enough time to react to obstructions: The rotors reverse automatically in the event of an obstruction, thereby channelling it past the shredding tools. Even with very large obstacles, the machine protects itself automatically. The shredding devices also detect these obstacles, automatically stop the shredding process and the operator is informed by optical signals to remove the obstacles. Thanks to cutting gap settings, afterbreaker bars and screen baskets, you can also produce perfect final grain sizes - additional secondary crushing with a high-speed machine is therefore no longer necessary for many requirements.
