The new TANA Hammerhead high-capacity waste shredder has been designed to respond to the increasing volume demands of the circular economy value chain
The powerful, durable and versatile mobile shredder combines Tana’s proven technology with the growing development needs of customers in their day-to-day operations.
The new TANA Hammerhead shredder offers a new level of capacity, especially for shredding volume-based waste fractions, such as construction waste, municipal solid waste and green waste. The need is real: global municipal waste amounted to 2.01 billion tonnes in 2016 and is expected to increase to over 3.4 billion tonnes by 2050.
The TANA Hammerhead has been designed for facilities and construction sites operating in the circular economy value chain, where high material flows are the most important factor in shredding operations.
The TANA Hammerhead is based on customer feedback and their specific business needs, as well as on Tana’s long-term product development.
The new shredder is based on the same technology as the TANA Shark shredder series, which is known for its high torque and power and has been continuously developed and refined over the past 20 years. The single-rotor TANA Hammerhead features an optimised transmission and control system to increase the shredding capacity.
The key difference between the new TANA Hammerhead and previous TANA shredder models is its fast, 40 rpm rotor. This allows the TANA Hammerhead to process lightweight materials, such as municipal solid waste and wood, up to 30-50 percent faster than before, without compromising on torque. The new shredder can also shred more demanding materials, such as car tyres or mattresses, with ease.
This combination makes the TANA Hammerhead the perfect tool for companies looking for a single shredder that can process several different waste fractions.
The TANA Hammerhead shredder has been developed with user-friendliness, reliability and cost effectiveness in mind. TANA technology, which is already familiar to many customers, ensures smooth operation. At the same time, sharing service and spare parts with the TANA Shark series contributes to Tana’s own resource efficiency and streamlines the operations of the service network.
In addition to performance, the TANA Hammerhead series offers customers flexibility and freedom of choice. The shredders in the series are available in electric versions that support the reduction of CO2 emissions and diesel versions that enable autonomous and location-independent processing.
In Tana’s familiar style, different shredder models can be delivered according to customer needs, either as stationary units or mobile versions that move on tracks or rubber tyres and can be equipped with various options as requested.
Deliveries of TANA Hammerhead shredders will begin in summer 2025.
