The Badger
Advantage

Engineered rugged and tough from the inside out, Badger shredders reduce larger abrasive materials than any crusher in its class with more efficiency and throughput. Designed with exclusive reconfigurable shaft blades, the Badger provides versatility that no other crusher can match. Its high-torque, low-speed shaft design can be configured to shred whatever your job demands. And, it shreds with less noise pollution and dust than ever before. 

Longer Lasting, Stronger Materials

Superior Quality

Fabricated from high-strength steel structural tubing, plate, and channel sections, the Badger features a high-quality and robust machine frame. High-strength steel blades and heavy-duty conveyors lead to a machine that takes abuse and runs longer with less downtime.

Shredding Chamber

Replaceable Blades & Bits

Blades are fabricated from heavy-duty high-strength steel and are individually mounted to twin shafts. Replaceable wear parts are easily changed, prolonging the life of the shredding blades.

A weld-less hexagonal blade shape fits precisely to the shaft and provides the ultimate positive drive and strength.

Long Running

Lower Maintenance Costs

The Badger is engineered for low-cost operation over the life of the machine. The machine runs at a low speed and ramps up RPMs only when additional power is required to shred tough materials.

Exclusively designed with replaceable counter knives, the shredder maximizes machine life and efficiency. This design reduces material build-up and prevents debris tangling while providing a second-stage shredding effect.

More Power & Torque

Powered By Volvo

Diesel-powered Badger models are powered by an ultra-reliable Volvo D16 powertrain that provides the Badger ample power to eat through whatever materials you can feed it. The high-torque drivetrain features a low engine speed and straightforward design that reduces service intervals and cost of operation.

Hydraulic Power System

Smart Technology

The Badger’s shredding chamber is load sensitive for torque and speed control, providing continuous maximum working efficiency. The powertrain’s drive control adjusts RPM depending on the material density. When the blades meet considerable resistance from a specific material, the blades will momentarily reverse direction, giving the shredder a new bite on material.

Configurable

Blade Versatility

Badger pioneered the ability for operators to replace or reconfigure their blade shafts for any shredding need. Unlike conventional crushers, the Badger’s shaft assemblies can be dismantled and reconfigured on the job site or at the shop to accommodate any shredding need, job by job. No welding, no grinding.

Custom interchangeable helix angles between the blades provide exclusive shred options unique to the Badger shredding system.

Safety

Operate Remotely

An optional remote control system provides full shredder maneuverability and functionality when working in hazardous and multi-unit feed environments. Retain smooth and precise machine control from across the job site. An ICAN smart control system provides automatic safety control.
