Ammann says its RSS 120-M shredder offers versatility and mobility for handling recycled feed materials

The RSS 120-M Shredder, Iron Separator and Screener is a mobile machine with a three-in-one capability as it can function as a shredder, iron separator and screener. The machine can recycle asphalt feed material ranging in size from milled cuttings to larger pieces and is designed for use at an asphalt plant. Protective processing also maintains desired grain sizes. The RSS 120-M can go from installation to production in as quickly as 30 minutes and is track-mounted for maximum mobility on all types of terrain.

A single operator can run the machine, which features a shredder with two low-speed, electrically driven shredder-rotating shafts. It has milling cutters with interchangeable teeth that crush the material and this patented technology is said to reduce the power needed, reducing fuel consumption as well as allowing hard and soft materials to be crushed in all types of weather. The electric motors are said to consistent crushing and screening, regardless of the working area and the machine can process up to180tonnes/hour of material.
