Vecoplan Celebrates Its 40th Anniversary

This led to Vecoplan’s invention of the first single-shaft rotary shredder, which revolutionized not only the company but also the size reduction industry in general. In 1989, a European patent was awarded to Vecoplan for the single-shaft shredder and its unique “U-rotor”, which quickly became the most popular design on single-shaft shredders and continues to be the most advanced cutting geometry for the universal size reduction of a wide spectrum of waste materials.
