The versatility of TANA waste shredders makes it easy to adapt them to different materials and processing requirements. Built on the same robust platform, both the TANA Shark and TANA Hammerhead offer various configuration options to choose from, allowing you to tailor the machine for your specific needs.
Whether you need to handle tyres or C&I waste, by modifying TANA shredders, you will find the optimal and most efficient way to process your materials. With the right configuration for a specific application, you get the most out of your waste management operations.
Explore some of the customization options available for TANA shredders and discover how they can improve your waste processing. And this is just the beginning – with over 50 ways to configure your shredder, there’s plenty more to explore.
Range of rotors
In addition to the Standard 33-knife rotor on the machine, there are five different rotor options to choose from. Alongside the standard rotors with either 33 or 44 knives, Heavy Duty rotors are meant especially for abrasive materials, such as tyres, where rotor surface wear is high. For maximal durability in extremely tough conditions, Plus (+) rotors with a more robust rotor tube are available. These rotors are recommended for heavy-duty use and for increasing production with selected materials.
Available rotors:
Cleaning combs
The TANA shredders’ bolt-on cleaning combs provide additional flexibility for processing different materials. Bolt-on cleaning combs are available in two different sizes: short and long. Shorter combs are for tougher materials to ensure the best durability and wear resistance. Longer combs are better suited for easier materials where a consistent, homogeneous particle size is essential.
The bolt-on design also makes maintenance faster and easier. Damaged combs can be replaced individually without welding, reducing downtime and keeping operations running smoothly.
Range of screens
Choosing the right rotor screen is essential for controlling the particle size of the end product. With 14 screen mesh sizes available, you can adjust the particle size to suit different materials and end-product requirements.
The plug-in design also makes rotor screens easy to install and remove, even in field conditions. This makes it easier to adapt the shredder to changing processing needs – quickly and efficiently.
Magnet
An optional over-band magnet helps you increase profits by separating valuable metals from the waste and making a cleaner end product. The overband magnet removes captured ferrous metals and discharges them to either side of the machine. Discharge direction can be selected directly from the control system and changed even during operation.
Choose either the Standard or Heavy Duty magnet depending on your needs. We especially recommend a stronger Heavy Duty magnet when shredded material is relatively small, and you need to separate all metals. The space between the magnet conveyor and the discharge conveyor can be easily controlled by the TANA Control System (TCS) during operation.
Side covers
Side covers are recommended to keep shredded material on the discharge conveyor. They are particularly useful when processing lightweight materials, such as mattresses, or when coarsely shredding high-volume materials. Side covers also help keep the work area clean and tidy, especially in windy outdoor conditions.
Tana Wingman
Tana Wingman makes the operator’s daily work easier by bringing essential machine information and a live view of the shredder’s hopper camera directly to a tablet.
With real-time visibility into material flow and machine performance, operators can monitor the shredding process, respond to interruptions, and stay in control without constantly moving between the cabin and the shredder.
Key features:
Tana Wingman runs on a commercial Android tablet and is designed for demanding industrial environments and locations, including sites with limited or restricted connectivity.
