Garden Shredders | Wood Chippers Roller

The handling of pruning residues and organic material can quickly turn into a problem for those working in agricultural or woodland environments, or for anyone with a large garden. The accumulation of branches and woody waste, in addition to reducing available space, can slow down seasonal operations and complicate area maintenance. Roller shredders provide a precise technical solution to this issue, especially for those seeking uniform and controlled shredding.

Thanks to the roller rotor, these chippers perform slow compression processing, reducing branches and brushwood into 4–5 cm wood chips, ideal for mulching or composting. The roller system differs from other cutting technologies due to its higher reliability on hardwood and reduced maintenance requirements. This technology minimizes vibrations and limits noise levels, making operation smoother and less tiring, even during extended use.

The models available on AgriEuro are intended for a broad audience: hobby users, semi-professionals, and professionals. Depending on the power supply type, cutting diameter, and the presence of accessories such as high discharge or self-feeding systems, it is possible to select the most suitable model for specific operating conditions. Some models reach cutting diameters of up to 150 mm and feature track drive or belt transmission, easing work even on challenging terrain or in professional contexts.

On AgriEuro it is possible to select the most suitable roller shredder based on specific technical features, designed for different levels of use, from hobby to professional. Each model differs in power supply type, cutting capacity, transport system, and safety mechanisms. Users can directly compare parameters such as maximum cutting diameter, transmission, starting system, or the presence of self-propulsion. This structure allows for a quick and effective product selection according to the quantity and type of material to be processed, working conditions, and frequency of use. All models in this section are equipped with a roller rotor, ensuring uniform and continuous shredding, suitable even for medium to large diameter branches. Below are the main technical features of the models in this category:

• Power supply: available in 230V single-phase versions for domestic applications, 400V three-phase versions for professional use, with 4-stroke petrol engines for mobile operations or where no electricity is available, or PTO-driven versions for intensive agricultural applications;
• Hopper: the models feature a unified hopper that allows the insertion of branches of different sizes and mixed material from a single loading point, easing operations and reducing working time;
• Safety: the presence of a safety lever allows stopping or reversing the rotor in the event of jamming; the emergency button enables immediate shutdown in critical situations;
• Electric start: some models are equipped with key or push-button starting, eliminating manual recoil starting, especially on petrol engines;
• Mobility: wheeled and tow-hitch versions are available, making it easier to transport the machine even on large or uneven terrain;
• Belt transmission: power transmission is achieved via belt drive, a solution that protects the engine from stress and sudden blockages of the working components;
• Self-propulsion: some professional models feature tracked self-propulsion, useful on slopes or when frequent movement is required on uneven surfaces;
• Self-feeding functions: the reverse function allows reversing the roller rotation direction to clear the shredding channel in the event of blockages;
• High discharge: the high discharge system facilitates directing wood chips directly into containers or trailers;
• Maximum cutting diameter: the models cover a wide range, from 40 mm up to 150 mm, allowing the processing of large branches without risking machine overload.

A roller shredder is used to reduce woody residues from pruning, such as dry branches, brushwood, and small trunks, into wood chips. Thanks to the roller rotor, the machine applies continuous compression force that breaks down woody material into regular 4–5 cm segments. This system ensures quieter operation compared to blade models, with reduced vibrations and lower mechanical wear. It is particularly suitable for those working with hard branches and for those requiring reusable shredded material for mulching or fuel.

Some practical application examples:

• Domestic green maintenance: in gardens with medium to small trees, the roller shredder converts seasonal pruning into wood chips, easing disposal without requiring transport to landfill sites;
• Agricultural work in orchards or olive groves: shredding branches after pruning allows the material to be reused directly on the field as ground cover;
• Semi-professional forestry use: in woodland operations, the roller shredder supports undergrowth maintenance and cleaning of cutting areas, with models capable of shredding branches up to 150 mm;
• Professional green maintenance services: for operators managing public parks, flowerbeds, and tree-lined avenues, these models provide good operating autonomy and are easy to transport;
• Wood chip production for biomass heating systems: models with high discharge and large cutting diameters produce wood chips compatible with domestic boilers or agricultural systems.

This type of shredder is suitable for hobby, semi-professional, and professional use. More compact models meet occasional maintenance needs; those equipped with powerful engines and belt transmissions are intended for frequent or intensive applications.

Roller shredders provide an effective technical solution for those who need to dispose of large quantities of woody material in an orderly and continuous manner. The roller system ensures controlled shredding, reducing even large-diameter branches into uniform fragments, suitable for agricultural or energy reuse. Compared to other cutting technologies, these models offer advantages in terms of mechanical reliability, reduced operator effort, and ease of operation during long work cycles. The availability of different configurations allows selecting the most suitable model for the operating environment and frequency of use.

Main advantages include:

• Roller rotor: enables medium and regular shredding, producing 4–5 cm wood chips suitable for mulching and biomass boiler combustion;
• Wide cutting capacity: models with cutting diameters up to 150 mm allow processing very thick branches, preventing jams and overloads;
• Reverse function: the ability to reverse the roller rotation direction allows quick clearing of the hopper in case of blockages;
• High discharge: supports direct conveying of shredded material into containers or trailers, simplifying wood chip collection;
• Electric start: on equipped models, key or push-button ignition simplifies starting, especially on petrol-engine versions;
• Self-propelled or wheeled structure: tracked or tow-hitch versions facilitate transport even on uneven terrain or slopes;
• Belt transmission: reduces the risk of engine damage in the event of sudden blockages, extending machine lifespan and simplifying maintenance operations.
