The US Shredder and Castings Group, Trussville, Ala., has reported that its turnkey installation projects have increased significantly over the last 8 months. The company notes that four projects, with equipment values ranging from $1.2 million to $3.6 million, recently have been engineered, installed and commissioned. In response to the increase, the company has doubled the amount of personnel involved in system installation.
The company reports that an internal market study and analysis of what shredder operators consider to be the biggest issues when installing equipment found that cost overruns was the largest concern.
US Shredder also reports that its specialized modular systems have been successful as well. The company installs the electrical, hydraulic, motor and drive systems in specially designed containers and ships them to customer sites ready to be powered, saving additional time and expense.
US Shredder and Castings Group offers scrap shredders, control systems, downstream systems, nonferrous recovery, air systems, scrap shears, balers, and loggers; as well as shredder castings, service, engineering, construction and installation to the worldwide scrap industry.
