Edge Innovate says its new VS750i primary waste shredder represents a leap forward in waste management.
The VS750i primary waste shredder is engineered to handle a broad range of materials and to meet the various needs of modern waste processing facilities.
“Edge Innovate continues its tradition of producing robust, high-performance equipment with the launch of the VS750i,” said Tom Connolly, Global Sales Manager for Edge Innovate.
“This latest product is the ultimate high-capacity twin-shaft primary shredder for diverse and demanding waste processing. The VS750i reaffirms Edge’s commitment to leading the recycling industry with advanced processing solutions that meet the evolving demands of waste management.”
The powerful VS750i is engineered to process bulky, industrial and various other materials with ease, reducing them to manageable piece sizes. This capability significantly lowers the volume of shredded material, reduces transportation costs and allows for greater extraction of commodities.
With its ability to be positioned near collection points in plants and landfills, the shredder is convenient and offers operational efficiency.
The machine excels in environments where incoming materials vary greatly in size, composition and shredding difficulty. It features dual 2.5-metre-long rotors made from solid steel and equipped with Hardox manufactured rotating knives that run asynchronously in both directions. This design ensures constant material movement, preventing bridging and maximizing processing efficiency.

“The VS750i is equipped with our advanced intelligent operating system, which includes tramp metal protection,” said Kevin Kelly, Product Development Manager for Edge Innovate.
“This system safeguards the shredder from contaminants, preventing asset damage and allowing it to process a wide array of materials swiftly and safely, including municipal solid waste, industrial, commercial and bulky waste. Its multiple chamber configurations enable customization to meet specific product sizing with huge production capacity requirements.”
The VS750i is constructed to withstand the toughest applications. Capable of shredding a wide range of materials such as, household waste, construction debris and compacted waste bales, it’s ideal for use in recycling plants, refuse-derived fuel (RDF) production, incinerators and large hazardous waste plants.
The shredder’s 755 hp Caterpillar engine, open cutting table, hydraulic hopper extensions, automatic tipping hopper and one-point service area for easy maintenance underscore its user-friendly design.
Delivering consistently high throughput — up to 150 tons per hour depending on the input type, knife configuration and loading procedure — the VS750i ensures maximum uptime and smooth operation.
Edge Innovate’s intelligent load management system further enhances its performance, making it a reliable choice to keep production lines moving efficiently.
Combining Edge Innovate’s Intelligent Load Management System and the VS Status Alert ensures the efficient loading of the shredder leading to consistent high throughputs with minimal downtime. Edges “track and shred” functionality compliments this combination, allowing the VS750i to be repositioned without the need to stop shredding.
The VS750i is also available as a static electric unit, offering lower operating costs, less servicing and no refuelling time.
Ideal for markets with environmental, legislative or noise constraints, the VS750i static electric matches the production capacity of its diesel and hydraulic counterpart. Its reduced maintenance needs and higher uptime ensure dependability with operators being able to customize the unit to meet specific application requirements or retrofitting into an existing waste processing plant.
