Unlike other competing shredders, BloApCo does not use blades, knives, or machined metal that must be kept sharp or frequently replaced.

BloApCo’s patented Pierce-and-Tear effect pulls material into the shredders and tears it apart. This waste reduction action uses ripper wheels to shred at high throughput/high torque/low RPM, outperforming hammering, grinding, and cutting/crushing.

BloApCo’s ripper wheels are durable single-piece ductile iron castings. Each wheel consists of two halves, each with an interlocking tab that forms a spiral pattern with adjacent wheels. Some ripper wheels feature sharp metal pins to enhance the pinching action and overall shredding performance.

It is recommended that the integrity and condition of the ripper wheels be ensured. Worn or damaged ripper wheels can impact the reduction action and result in undesirable performance.  Ripper wheels can be easily replaced and are an inexpensive MRO activity with a high-yield ROI (Return On Investment).

Contact BloApCo for more information about the appropriate type of ripper wheels for your shredder and application.

Have your machine’s serial number (located on the id plate) ready for wheel verification.

The following conditions can be an indicator of Ripper Wheels in need of attention:

BloApCo Material Handling Fan in System

Maintaining a material handling fan in top condition is critical to sustaining its performance and extending its operational life.  BloApCo fans are built tough to take the impact abuse and erosive wear that result from large quantities of various materials passing through the fan housing, but without regular care — from lubrication and inspection to cleaning — even the toughest design can suffer from excessive vibration, bearing fatigue, and reduced efficiency.

Here are some signs that there may be some issues with your material handling fan:

  • Noticeable vibration
  • Excessive noise
  • Visible damage
  • Heightened bearing temperature

Here are some of the fan parts that BloApCo has in inventory for expedited delivery:

  • Bearings
  • Fan wheels
  • Fan shafts
  • V-belts
