As the North American shredder market continues to evolve, Danieli Centro Recycling (DCR) says it has seen growing acceptance of its preshredder line, selling six additional units in North America, primarily in the U.S. Midwest, as 2023 came to a close.

“As shredder operators across the region seek greater efficiency from their primary shredder mills, work to manage emissions and reduce energy releases, the Danieli preshredder is proving its value,” says Jim Stepanek, DCR sales director, North America. “Our customers have experienced reduced energy and wear parts consumption as the result of installing these units as well as increased production at the automobile shredder, creating a full infeed conveyor with no gaps and full box shredding. At the same time, the slow-speed methodology of preparing material in the preshredder is reducing energy releases within the primary mill.”

DCR has six Large ZDS 250 800 preshredders operating in the U.S., Mexico and Canada, with six units being installed in the next few months and into 2025.

Serving ferrous and nonferrous metal recyclers, the company’s team is made up of the specialized companies Danieli Lynxs, Danieli Henschel and Danieli Riverside Products. With years of experience in processing metal scrap and hundreds of shredder, preshredder, shear and baler installations worldwide, DCR meets the needs of metal recycling companies worldwide that want to provide certain processed scrap grades to steel mills.
