Continental Biomass Industries (CBI), Newton, N.H., has announced that its Annihilator shredder (formerly dubbed the MOAS -- Mother of All Shredders) has now completed its testing phase and is ready for demonstration.
The 20,000-pound machine was unveiled in June at WasteExpo in New Orleans. The unit is designed as a primary shredder for all types of C&D debris and additional municipal solid waste streams.
According to CBI, the unit features a forged, high-strength steel rotor that is 10 feet, 4 inches long, 6 inches thick, and 42 inches in diameter. The cutting gap on the 8,000-pound anvil adjusts instantaneously to accommodate varying feedstock and to meet desired end product size requirements.
