Intelligent Shredding

Powered by a 493HP Scania DC13 engine, the TBG 530T has been expertly designed to give operators unrivalled performance, ease of maintenance and superb fuel efficiency. With a rapid set up time the TBG 530T is ready to work in a matter of minutes with no tooling required.  The open fronted feeder enables the TBG 530T to be fed quickly and easily from the rear.  The intelligently controlled feed system, comprising of heavy duty drag chains and aggressive feed wheel with unique lift/downward assist, ensure optimum material flow resulting in class leading performance.

Robust Rotor

At the heart of the machine is the 1,100mm diameter x 1,490mm wide swinging hammer rotor.  This robust, direct drive rotor rotates at 1000 RPM and incorporates 30 up-swinging hammers.  A wide selection of hammer designs and interchangeable screens are available allowing the machine to be configured to suit the ever-changing product requirements. The TBG 530T also benefits from the added protection of a screen kickback system. Should an unshreddable object enter the shredding chamber the screen will release allowing the material to quickly pass through, reducing the risk of accidental damage.

Processed material is removed from the machine via a modular product conveyor with an impressive discharge height of 4.6m. This conveyor also lowers to ground level for inspection and maintenance. An optional overband magnet with hydraulic height adjustment can be fitted to remove ferrous metal from the product.

Unrivalled Service Access

Whether performing daily checks or carrying out maintenance, the TBG 530T offers unrivalled service access to all key areas of the machine. The electric/hydraulic raise/lower of the screen and interlocked chamber access door allow the rotor and anvil to be inspected with ease. Designed with the operator in mind, the TBG 530T offers the perfect blend of performance, efficiency and serviceability.

Telematics

The TBG 530T is fitted as standard with the industry leading T-Link telematics solution designed to improve productivity, efficiency and profitability for the customer.  T-Link is a remote monitoring, fleet management system that combines the machines’ inbuilt CANbus control system with satellite positioning and telematics software.  Available online anywhere and at any-time, T-Link provides instant access to key data including comprehensive information on GPS location, start and stop times, fuel consumption, operating hours, maintenance status and much more.  Analysing this data can improve machine operation, increase uptime and allow in-depth reporting and fleet management.
