Shear shredders differ significantly from tub and horizontal grinders. Rather than a single, high-speed hammermill, the shear shredder uses pairs of counter-rotating shafts that contain a number of cutting discs, and operate at a much lower rpm.

CONT

Les broyeurs par cisaillement diffèrent grandement des déchiqueteuses et des broyeurs horizontaux. Au lieu d'un broyeur à marteaux unique à vitesse élevée, le broyeur par cisaillement utilise des paires d'axes contrarotatifs qui contiennent un certain nombre de disques de coupe et qui fonctionnent à un rythme de rotation par minute beaucoup plus bas.
