New mobile shredder from TANA processes solid waste up to 50 percent faster
The Hammerhead high-capacity waste shredder features a faster rotor to match the growing needs of the circular economy

The circular economy is only able to exist because of the equipment capable of transforming material efficiently and reliably. The new TANA Hammerhead shredder fits into the cycle by offering a new level of capacity for shredding volume-based waste fractions, such as construction waste, municipal solid waste, and green waste.
The TANA Hammerhead has been designed for facilities and construction sites operating in the circular economy value chain where high material flows are the most important factor in shredding operations.
The new shredder is based on the same technology as the TANA Shark shredder series, which is known for its high torque and power and has been continuously developed and refined over the past 20 years. The single-rotor TANA Hammerhead features an optimized transmission and control system to increase the shredding capacity.
The key difference between the new TANA Hammerhead and previous TANA shredder models is its fast, 40 rpm rotor, which allows the TANA Hammerhead to process lightweight materials, such as municipal solid waste and wood, up to 30-50 percent faster than before, without compromising on torque. The Hammerhead can also shred more demanding materials, such as car tires or mattresses, with ease.
The TANA Hammerhead
- The series complements Tana's current shredder family and increases the number of different shredders to 14 model versions, offering a suitable single-rotor shredder option for every customer group
- The TANA Hammerhead is available in a stationary and mobile version that can be moved on wheels or tracks
- The TANA Hammerhead's technology is based on the advanced and proven TANA Shark shredder series, which is known for its high torque and power. Similarly, the TANA Hammerhead is also available with electric and diesel powertrains
- TANA Hammerhead shredders share many components with TANA Shark shredders, which have been developed for over 20 years, including frame structure, wheel and track platforms, rotors, screens, control systems, and accessories
- The revised transmission and software on the TANA Hammerhead enable a higher rotation speed of the rotor and a larger material processing volume
Hammerhead shreds and goes anywhere
The TANA Hammerhead shredder has been developed with user-friendliness, reliability, and cost-effectiveness in mind. TANA technology, which is already familiar in the industry, ensures smooth operation. At the same time, sharing service and spare parts with the TANA Shark series contributes to Tana's own resource efficiency and streamlines the operations of the service network.
In addition to performance, the TANA Hammerhead series offers flexibility and freedom of choice. The shredders in the series are available in both electric versions that support the reduction of CO2 emissions and diesel versions that enable autonomous and location-independent processing.
Different shredder models can be delivered according to need, either as stationary units or mobile versions that move on tracks or rubber tires and can be equipped with various options as requested.
