Heavy-duty Ameridrives Americardan® 5000 and 3000 Series driveshaft assemblies are a direct connection between the electric prime mover and the shredder rotor (drum) on primary auto (ELV) shredders and scrap shredders. Units feature an axial travel section that compensates for movement of the shredder rotor and variations within the installation. Ameridrives SafeSet, Shear Groove and Shear Pin overload devices are preset to release at a specified torque value in order to protect shredder drive systems from expensive damage and lost production.
Amerigear couplings (AGMA) provide reliable connections between drive motors and gearboxes on a wide array of shredder applications including, primary auto shredders, scrap shredders, feeding apron conveyors, dust conveyors, magnetic material separator conveyors and transport conveyors.
