AXO's new FATSO range, follows an extensive 3 year design, prototype and test program and are the most efficient, robust and maintenance friendly Shredders in the market today. The FATSO range lifts the bar in Shredder design, with many features new to the industry.  

• All models have new specific cutter geometry to increase and maximize throughput per kW
• "HH" indicates Hard-Drive specific models with replaceable concave Hard-Heads. 
• "XH" indicates cutter-shaft material specific for hard-drives and e-waste.
• Intelligent motor control giving +40% knife tip force
• Sealed Labyrinth, Hard-faces and bearing assemblies reducing recommended maintenance to once per year
• Proprietary AXO Intelligent designed Inverter Software specific for the FATSO Shredder application
• Reduced cost of replacement Cutter-Shafts
• All components from leading European suppliers

AXO's approach to the Fatso design has been to use AXO's successful Workmate 720 & 512 products as a benchmark, and improve the design in three key areas... 

1. Throughput (kg's per hour) per kW of electricity used
2. Extend the life and reliability of the parts
3. Reduce and simplify the required maintenance and the cost of wear parts

The resulting Fatso design is very different from previous AXO shredder models, but the core AXO focus of low-speed high-torque remains. 

Low speed, in plant based and mobile shredding applications reduces the amount of dust generated, and also the risk of fire.

The Hard-Head system was developed by AXO to lower the cost of ownership of our shredders. The Hard-Heads shown in red are attached to each cutter, fixed from the rear with a capscrew. Because of this they can only be fitted to cutter widths above 20mm. 

The Hard-Heads can be removed and rotated after the leading edge has worn. They can be replaced while the cutter shafts are still in the shredder block. The Hard-Head material and treatment process is specifically developed for AXO to increase cutter life and reduce overall wear cost to the customer. 

Hard-Heads stay sharper and have a convex face with sharp points, so they keep the shredder grabbing and pulling in more material for a longer time. It's ideal for hard to grab applications like plastics, drums, paper roll cores etc. Shredders with Hard-Heads are also ideally suited to higher wear applications such as paper pre-shredding, biomass, and multi-stream waste.

AXO's Fatso-240-24XH has been developed specifically to shred Hard-Drives, E-Waste and other products containing steel and metals. Special wear resistant steel cutter-shafts ensure long life. This small, robust shredder can shred Hard-Drives, E-Waste and Laptops up to 50mm thick. Features include

• Ultra hard, wear resistant cutter-shafts
• Slot feed for product up to 240mm wide x 50mm thick.
• Available in plant/factory based installations using either single or three phase power connections.
• Also available for mobile applications
• Can be installed on new or retrofitted to older Shred-Trucks
