<![CDATA[

Miramar Beach, Florida-based U.S. Shredder and Castings Group has commissioned a 7090 heavy-duty aluminum shredder at MOST Inc., Troy, Missouri, a subsidiary of Toyota Tsusho America Inc.

The supplier says installation began in early January 2016 and took less than 60 days to complete. U.S. Shredder handled the project as a turnkey installation, providing civil and electrical engineering, a building that encloses the shredder and downstream, hydraulics and mechanical installation. 

The shredder is driven by an AC motor provided by Amerimex of Houston.  The shredder system includes an auto-pilot system for operational efficiency as well as an automated water injection system, according to U.S. Shredder.

The 7090 shredder replaces a smaller shredder at the foundry and is capable of handling between 40 and 100 tons per hour, depending on the horsepower of the motor. The system is fed by a heavy-duty infeed conveyor with hydraulic drive, according to U.S. Shredder, which also provides all of the wear parts and castings for the shredder. 

U.S. Shredder and Castings Group offers scrap shredders, control systems, downstream systems, nonferrous recovery and air systems, as well as shredder castings, service, engineering, construction and installation, to the worldwide scrap industry.

More information is available from President Bill Tigner at 205-999-7670 or at [email protected]
