Curtains up for UNTHA's latest innovation
Curtains up for UNTHA's latest innovation
The RS150 is UNTHA's largest 4-shaft shredder and was developed for extreme applications requiring not only a high throughput and availability but also low operating costs.
The RS150 is UNTHA's largest 4-shaft shredder and was developed for extreme applications requiring not only a high throughput and availability but also low operating costs.
Our newly developed UNTHA Torque Drive forms the highlight of this unique innovation. The dynamic and energy-saving drive concept ensures that the cutting shafts are stopped immediately when foreign materials enter the system to prevent damage of the cutting tools. Additionally, this drive makes frequent reversing possible, which is especially important when shredding problematic materials. Owing to the possibility of varying the speed of rotation of the cutting shafts, the throughput can always be adapted to the material to be shredded. In contrast to high-speed systems (asynchronous motors) this drive works without wear parts such as couplings, belts, shear bolts or fly wheels, reducing its susceptibility to failures to a minimum.
High availability and efficiency, low energy consumption and simple maintenance turn the RS150 into an intelligent power pack for exceptional requirements.
The RS150 series will make its début at the 1st UNTHA Recycling Days, taking place in Kuchl, close to Salzburg, from May 25th to 26th. Here, interested visitors can watch live demonstrations and convince themselves of the machine's numerous quality features.
UNTHA deal signifies shredding expansion in Japan
UNTHA deal signifies shredding expansion in Japan
UNTHA’s expansion in Asia looks set to continue, following the agreement of a new distribution partnership with Yokohama-headquartered engineering firm Sun Earth.
UNTHA’s expansion in Asia looks set to continue, following the agreement of a new distribution partnership with Yokohama-headquartered engineering firm Sun Earth.
The deal will see UNTHA’s Austrian manufactured shredding technology supplied to a number of sophisticated waste and alternative fuel production facilities throughout Japan.
Sun Earth is no stranger to the shredding sector – in fact the $40m turnover company is the leading technology provider in the country’s waste management industry. But a growing number of requests for a shredding system that can tackle complex production waste, pulper ropes as well as single-step Solid Recovered Fuel (SRF) manufacturing, represented a gap in Sun Earth’s machinery portfolio.
Talks with UNTHA therefore began in the spring of 2017. “We want to offer our customers the most advanced waste technologies in the world,” commented Yutaka Ebihara, Sun Earth CEO. “We are constantly on the lookout for innovative yet proven equipment and already have established relationships with other processing and sorting machinery manufacturers in Europe. “But the world of shredding is becoming increasingly difficult. We therefore needed to source a machine with a tough yet economical cutting system that can withstand the pressures of demanding waste applications and still achieve high performance.”
Sun Earth began speaking to UNTHA’s Asian Pacific waste specialist Andreas Senkbeil, just before Tokyo’s biggest environmental event – N-Expo – in May. Colleagues from Austria have since visited the team in Japan, and vice versa.
Peter Streinik, head of UNTHA’s waste shredding division elaborated: “We’ve welcomed members of the technical team to our Salzburg HQ so they can see for themselves how serious we are about shredding. They’ve toured our innovation centre, seen our shredders being built and met various members of the team. Yutaka brought 15 key customers on a similar tour and we’ve since hosted our guests on a number of client sites, before delivering sales and technical training to the engineers. “This is the start of a very exciting relationship which will further cement our presence in Eastern parts of the world.”
Sun Earth has already placed an order for an UNTHA XR3000C shredder scheduled for shipment in early 2018.
UNTHA is a mechanical engineering company based in Salzburg that specializes in the development and manufacture of shredders for a wide range of applications. We have a tradition of innovation stretching back over 25 years.
We can therefore draw on over 25 years of experience in shredding technology and can confidently claim to have made a substantial contribution to the technical developments in this field. The innovative technology of the patented UNTHA four-shaft shredder and perforated screen was developed in our plant; in 1981 UNTHA launched the first industrially produced four-shaft shredder onto the market. We have also played a key role in other technical innovations and hold various other patents.
Our all-round technical know-how and experience, and more than 60 highly-qualified staff, make us one of the most highly skilled partners in this field.

| LR520 wood shredder Compact and reliable.
The LR520 wood shredder is a single-shaft shredder specifically designed for joineries and wood working companies with a waste wood volume of less than 3 m³ per week. Thanks to its pusher-free design, this low-maintenance wood shredder has a very small footprint. The low drive power as well as the integrated shut-down function when idling significantly decrease energy costs. |
| RS30-RS40 wood shredder A tradition of reliability. The reliable and rugged RS30 and RS40 wood shredders are often used for processing long solid wooden parts and have a proven track record for decades. These four-shaft shredder can stand alone or be integrated into comprehensive systems. |
| TR series The TR series has been specially developed to deal with alternative and secondary energy sources. The increased rotor diameter of 1100 mm shows that UNTHA is taking secondary-shredding to another level. The resultant increase in screen surface area facilitates high output volumes of up to 15t/h.
The TR series can process all kinds of mixed household refuse in preparation for thermal processing in mono and co-combustion systems. A homogenous end product is achieved taking into account the combustion system (fluidised bed or rotary kiln) in operation. |
| XR series The XR series is currently the heaviest in our range of single-shaft shredders; the machines are available in three different sizes. This series has been specially developed for use in the waste disposal and recycling industries, and during the design process we therefore focused on achieving high through-put rates, excellent resistance to non-shreddable foreign bodies and high availability. In order to guarantee this last property, machines for use in waste processing must be able to meet exacting demands; this means that they need to be equipped with extremely efficient foreign body removal systems.
