GO GREEN WITH AN ELECTRIC WASTE SHREDDER FROM EDGE
The new VS420E Hybrid from EDGE Innovate is a breakthrough in eco-friendly shredding technology, delivering top-tier performance with a significantly reduced environmental impact. By dramatically lowering CO2 emissions, this hybrid model not only cuts your carbon footprint but also reduces operating costs and maintenance requirements. It combines the mobility of a diesel-driven unit with the environmental and operational advantages of a stationary electric shredder—all in one innovative, self-contained package. Experience minimal environmental impact without compromising on power.
With over 20 years of expertise in electric drive systems, EDGE Innovate leads the way in sustainable industrial solutions. The electrified VS420 slow-speed, high-torque shredder represents a major leap forward in reducing industrial emissions while maintaining the highest standards of efficiency and power.
ECO-FRIENDLY ENGINEERING FOR INDOOR AND URBAN USE
The VS420E Hybrid is a perfect choice for operators who require flexibility and sustainability. Replacing the conventional 310Kw CATERPILLAR engine with two 132KW electric motors, the VS420E delivers the same production capacity and torque as diesel/hydraulic units. A small 55Kw diesel engine provides mobility for tracking and setup functions, while an additional 11Kw auxiliary motor ensures full setup capabilities in both “Electric” and “Diesel/Hydraulic” modes.
Designed for zero emissions, the VS420E is ideal for indoor applications where air quality is a priority and emissions must be minimized. Its emission-free operation makes it perfect for use inside facilities or in proximity to residential areas, ensuring compliance with environmental regulations.
DESIGN FEATURES FOR QUIET AND EFFICIENT WASTE SHREDDING
The VS420E’s design prioritizes both environmental and operational efficiency. The intuitive “Plug and Shred” feature enables quick connection to the grid, reducing setup time and allowing for rapid, efficient operation. EDGE’s Intelligent Load Management and VS Status Alert System optimize shredder loading, ensuring high throughput while minimizing energy consumption and downtime.
One of the standout features of the VS420E is its ultra-quiet operation. With no engine noise during shredding, it is ideal for use in residential or urban areas where noise pollution is a concern. This makes it not only an environmentally responsible choice but also a community-friendly one.
HIGH PERFORMANCE SHREDDING WITH SUSTAINABILITY IN MIND
The VS420E’s impressive throughput is powered by customizable 2m long, high-torque shredder shafts, designed to meet specific application requirements and produce the desired final product size. With a broad range of tooling options and chamber configurations, the VS420E is engineered for peak performance and minimal environmental impact.
BENEFITS OF ELECTRIC HYBRID EDGE WASTE SHREDDER
Choosing the VS420E Hybrid goes beyond fuel savings—it’s about embracing a sustainable future. Electric hybrid systems reduce operating and maintenance costs, offer greater reliability in extreme conditions, and ensure compliance with stringent environmental and noise regulations. The emission-free operation and low noise levels make it ideal for indoor use, urban environments, and close proximity to residential areas.
As diesel prices fluctuate globally, the VS420E Hybrid offers predictable costs and a faster return on investment, making it not only an environmentally sound choice but also a smart financial decision.
