Which Mighty Mac Shredder-Chipper is Best for You?

We offer a variety of options that are guaranteed to meet your needs. Our hammermill style shredder-chippers house free-swinging hammers that shred, tear, beat, and grind materials. The shredding hammer machine options range from 16 reversible hammers to 48 hammers depending on the model you select. The shredder-chipper performs these actions until it is able to pass through the screen at the discharge end of the machine. We offer various screen options so you can customize how finely your material is processed. While the hammermill shredder-chipper machines may be the right choice for some homeowners, we know it is not for everyone.
