mance and economy that its target group is
looking for. With its small dimensions and a
total weight of 19 tonnes in the two-axle trailer
version, not only is it very easy to move
around, it’s also the right size for small- to
medium-scale facilities.
Naturally, this ease of transportation is ideal
for contract service providers who need to
react flexibly in terms of work place as well as
in the service offerings from shredding to chip-
ping.
Although it has the same basic structure and
dimensions, the Axtor 6210 is a step up in per-
formance. With 577 HP, throughput of 300 m³
per hour or more is not uncommon. The addi-
tional performance comes with higher overall
weight, so the 6210 has a three-axle trailer.
Both are also offered in self-propelled tracked
versions.

CHIPPING AND SHREDDING
Conversion from shredder to chipper is fast
and simple. The free-swinging shredder blades
can be replaced by fixed holders with preci-
sion-cut chipping blades or tough shredder
blades in about half a day. Conversion using

fixed teeth is even faster, going from shred-
der to chipper mode in not more than three
hours. If two people do the work, it can be
done in half the time. The machine can be
very precisely configured for the intended
use. With the correct blades and the right
screen basket, astonishingly high through-
put with excellent fuel efficiency can be
delivered with waste wood, trunks, forestry
residue, bark or green cuttings. For exam-
ple, with woody green cuttings processed
for composting, throughput of up to 200 m³
per hour is possible.

WELL THOUGHT THROUGH
Komptech put customer needs first in
upgrading the Axtor series. One example is
its outstanding maintenance access, with
hydraulically lifting engine cover and roomy
service platform with integrated folded lad-
der. The same goes for the massive section-
al steel belt intake system, the continuous
discharge conveyor with a cone height of
4.5m, and the hydraulic tilt hopper.
Everything is designed with the user in
mind, from avoidance of leakage during
material transport, to the tough compo-
nents, to the clever details that help work
go smoothly on-site.

NEW CHIPPING DRUM OPTION
A special chipping drum makes the Axtor a
full-blooded chipper. Massive chipping
blades, widely adjustable advance and a full

selection of screen baskets, leave nothing
to be desired in terms of the grain size and
quality of the chips.

THE NEW TERMINATOR
The new Terminator Type V is one of the
most comprehensive developments at the
Komptech booth and certainly a highlight
of the show. ‘V’ stands for ‘versatile’ and
refers not just to the materials the machine
can process, but also to its many possible
applications.
The focus during development was on users
who need to process many different materi-
als, be they household or commercial waste;
biomass such as green and shrub cuttings; or
used wood. For example, processing bio-
mass requires a more aggressive shredding
unit in order to ensure active and steady
material intake. Accordingly, the blades on
the shredding drum were made 40% higher.

FLEXIBLE FOR USERS
From the technical point view, the newly
developed Terminator Type V is a line
extension, in other words a new version of
the existing U, F, and XXF shredders. The
modular idea played a major role in its
development and the ability to easily
replace all major components was designed
in from the beginning. Our development
engineers succeeded in integrating all
future variants in the basic layout. This
ensures maximum flexibility, because a
machine can be set up exactly for the cus-
tomer’s requirements by putting together
the right components.
For the first time, an optional re-shredding
unit under the drum is also available, great-
ly expanding the range of possible grain
sizes.
