The system handles up to 100 green tons per hour of fiber, and includes pre-screening and shredding/milling of material to an approximate 1/2 in. to 3/4 in. minus product size.

The system includes two WSM drag chain reclaims, which allow bulk loading and metered feeding of wood fibers, a belt conveyor with overhead self-cleaning permanent magnet, vibrating screen and WSM 4272S swing hammer shredder/hammermill. Pre-screening the incoming material provides increased thru-put with less energy consumption.
