Ripshear® Compact Slow-Speed Industrial Shredder

The Williams Ripshear® is a compact industrial shredding machine with powerful capabilities.

One of the smallest, most innovative Williams machines, the Ripshear® Compact Slow-Speed Industrial Shredder features a small batch-fed shredder design, offering a powerful solution for industrial customers. It is the perfect way to shred materials or dispose of waste generated by low-volume manufacturing processes.

This slow-speed, high-torque shredding machine cuts materials like scissors and can be used for many applications. This method differs from larger Williams single shaft shredding machinery, which uses tearing and fracturing techniques.


A small industrial shredder makes your manufacturing processes more versatile and cost efficient. Contact Williams Patent Crusher to discover whether the Ripshear® Compact Slow-Speed Industrial Shredder is right for your application needs.
