Lefort, based in Gosselies, Belgium, has introduced the latest addition to its product line: the horizontal Multi Product 800-horsepower (MTP 800) shredder. The shredder’s release follows the launch of the company’s first self-propelled track-mounted shear/baler/logger at the Institute of Scrap Recycling Industries (ISRI) 2016 Convention & Exposition.

The shredder comes with a hammer-equipped rotor, used for grating various products. The configuration of the 800-horsepower electrical motor, directly connected to the rotor shaft via a hydraulic coupler, and the interchangeable high-strength steel hammer system have been tested to ensure output capacity standards and to reduce maintenance. The low motor rotation speed ensures high torque to handle the toughest materials, Lefort says. The dust extraction units, vibrating tables and the waste sorting selection system are tailored to customer needs.

Lefort shredders are available in different versions and power units and can be equipped with an electric or thermal motor. They carry the “CE” label for the European market and the “UL” label for the U.S., the company says.

Lefort offers its customers a complete package: delivery, installation of the equipment and accessories, as well as commissioning and operator training.

The company says its worldwide dealership network means customers can rely on a stock of available spare parts that ensures timely technical support.

Since 1947, Lefort has built its machines in its Belgium-based facilities. In 2017, the company celebrates the 70th anniversary of its first machine.
