CAMS is introducing its new UTM 1500 G model which is designed for efficient recycling of demolition waste. The machine is a hybrid, self-propelled shredder, designed to transform wood, bulky waste, aggregates and demolition material into new resources.
The CAMS UTM 1500 G is a patented track-mounted shredder designed to shred materials such as concrete, asphalt and wood. This highly robust machine is said to achieve high productivity with low fuel consumption and can also be run off an electrical power supply.
A novel feature of the machine is the slow action of the shredder shafts which the firm says ensures operating noise is low, as well as reducing dust emissions. The machine has automatic selection of settings for shredding materials and is also capable of handling wet feed. The efficient working ensures that fuel or power consumption is low and the machine is designed to be compact for transport.
Components have a high wear resistance to maximise working life and can also run on electric power. Options include a GPS package, a diesel-loading pump, an electric pump, a dust-suppression pump and an automatic lubrication pump.
Power comes from a Caterpillar diesel engine that meets Tier 4 Final/Stage V emissions requirements and delivers 201kW, while the machine weighs 19.5tonnes. It measures 11m long by 3m wide and 4.3m high. The discharge conveyor is 812mm wide by 3m high while the shredder measures 1.5x914mm, the hopper capacity is 3.9m3 and the tank capacity is 200litres.
