Lindner launches a new lighter-duty Urraco shredder model with flexible components
The Urraco ECO twin-shaft shredder processes wood with a reduced total cost of ownership and simpler repairs
Lindner has added another mobile twin-shaft shredder to its portfolio: the Urraco ECO, an entry-level model in the premium segment focused on waste wood and green waste.
"We are proud to be able to bring the next model in our Urraco line to the market in less than a year and have intentionally positioned the Urraco ECO as an entry-level model in the premium segment. The machine was developed together with our customers in response to their specific needs — and this is precisely where our innovative strength lies. The outcome is a reliable, mobile twin-shaft shredder that excels in every way, from its useful life to its low overall operating costs," explains Matthias Egarter, CEO of Lindner.
The new lighter-weight shredder focuses on organic waste
Whether pre-shredding or reducing volume, the Urraco ECO is designed to handle all sizes of wood, green, and commercial waste. "The requirement was clear. Building on the pioneering technology of the Urraco EVO, the new model was developed with smart simplification in mind — without compromising Lindner's core expertise," says Andreas Klapf, head of Development at Lindner.
The new model was engineered to withstand tough working conditions along with ease of service. "The combination of Lindner's Skyflap and the fast-exchange system means that the entire cutting system can be replaced in under 2.5 hours. This offers a high degree of flexibility and maintenance efficiency. And the Urraco ECO also scores well in terms of operating costs, with a reduction of up to 30 percent," says Thomas Huber, product manager, Mobile Shredding.
Lindner welcomed international partners to take a look at the new shredder
The new Urraco ECO shredder made its debut in September this year at Lindner's International Partner Days in Spittal an der Drau, Austria. Lindner welcomed representatives from its international subsidiaries and sales partners from more than 30 countries to the company site. During a live shredding demonstration, the participants could see the quality and high throughput of the new Urraco series for themselves.
The feedback from the markets was consistent across the board. "With the Urraco ECO we can reach customers who want to start with resource management and are looking for a premium product that fits their investment framework — innovative, robust, and long-lasting," says Wulf Schnellwanich, sales manager, Lindner Germany.
"The new twin-shaft shredder makes it possible for municipal waste organisations, for example, to process a range of materials at a reliable throughput and low cost," adds John Gregory, CEO, Lindner America.
For Vincent Roger, sales director, Lindner France, it is "an important door opener for customers who don't need heavy-duty machines — without compromising on quality". Frederico Hartmann, managing director, Lindner LATAM, expects "to open up an entirely new category of customers, especially those who want to process wood into biomass."
