How Bonfiglioli Drives Primary and Secondary Shredding 

Primary shredding takes the brunt of the impact, handling everything from bulky car parts to dense electronics. Our planetary gearboxes, like the 300 Series, are built to withstand these punishing tasks.

Secondary shredding demands a different kind of strength. Here, the focus is on achieving a uniform, manageable particle size. Bonfiglioli's HDO Series helical in-line gearboxes are the perfect solution for these precise tasks.

Beyond the gearbox itself, Bonfiglioli offers a complete package for primary shredding. Our Active Cube frequency inverter provides exceptional adaptability for various machine types, from servo-driven systems to heavy-duty industrial applications. Here are some key features that make Active Cube a game-changer.

• High shock load resistance: The 300 Series can handle the heavy impacts that come with standalone recycling operations.
• Wash down ready: The 300 Series features a protection rating up to IP56, making it ideal for washdown environments.
• Complete drive solution: We offer a one-stop shop for all your drive needs, including high and premium efficiency motors and variable frequency drives.

• Helical muscle: HDO Series gearboxes are built to deliver high output torque, making them ideal for shredding tough materials into consistent pieces.
• Built to endure: High-quality materials and an optimized design ensure the HDO Series can operate in harsh environments while delivering a long operating life.
• Right for the space: The HDO Series offers output shafts in both parallel (HDP) and right-angle configurations, allowing for flexible installation in space-constrained environments.

• Fieldbus communication: Seamless integration with various fieldbus systems allows for superior communication within your machines.
• Precise control: The Active Cube offers features like positioning via fieldbus and integrated VPLC for unmatched control over your shredder's operation.
• Safety first: Integrated safe torque off (STO) functionality ensures operator safety in the event of unexpected situations.
