Which shredder should I choose?
If you are processing cabbages less than 500 kg/h, then we would suggest S 40 or S 30. While if you have capacity up till 2000 kg/h, then S 50 is the right one, while if you have higher capacity than 2000-5000 kg/h, then S 65 will be the one for you.

S 40 has 40 cm which allows to cut most of the cabbages only in half.

Our minimum processing capacity is 500 kg/h, while the easiness of usage and its price is still competitive, thus if you think how much time you will save on otherwise manual work, you will appreciate much higher speed per hour. With our machines you will be able to focus on other tasks instead of pure shredding!
