Riverside Machinery appointed UK dealers for Forus shredders
Riverside Machinery have been appointed as the sole UK dealers for Forus Gmbh, a German manufacturer of slow- and high-speed shredders.
John O'Neill of Riverside Machinery commented: 'This is a fantastic addition to our business as we are already the UK dealer for Neuenhauser screening technologies so this really compliments the range of machinery we can now offer.'
The most popular shredder within the Forus range is the HB186 twin-shaft slow-speed shredder. Available in wheeled, tracked, static or hook-lift format, this particular model is fitted with a CAT 6.6 engine or CAT 7.1 engine (depending on application). The shredding unit is a welded-tooth format and both shafts are independent with forward and reverse as standard.
Apart from the shredding unit itself one of the main advantages of the Forus shredder is the access for maintenance. Each model is fitted with an access door on each side of the shredding unit that allows access to both the conveyor belt drive system and shredder unit.
