3. First things first, trees and plants are the main sources of oxygen on earth. They also
contribute to the pollution control, as these would take the carbon dioxide and release
out oxygen. After the lifetime of the trees and plants, they go on to become fossils
which are further used in the generation of electricity. Hence, with all the above
mention advantages of trees and plants please do not cut down the trees and cause
deforestation. Deforestation has a lot of negative impacts and is the reason of natural
calamities which would lead to the death of mankind. Due to the decrease of trees and
plants from the past few decades we have facing global warming which has undesired
effects on our living. So please consider twice before you cut down or chip off the
trees
4. Why shred trees?
After the above mention of the importance of trees, one
might think what might be the reason for shredding trees
when everyone knows the effects of the same. The answer
lies in the necessity of the mankind.
From the past few decades, we have seen an exponential
increase in the population of the world. This population
explosion has increased the demand for different
products.
All the products are directly or indirectly dependent on the trees or the material derived from the trees. Also, the
forest cover has reduced considerably due to the setup of various industries, expansion of housing area and many
other reasons. Though this has negative effects it has become the need of the hour to shred the trees and make
living possible.
5. The tree branch shredder has been in use to shred the unnecessary trees
that have no commercial and domestic purpose. This machine has been
very helpful to design the cities and the industrial areas with high
efficiency in using the available limited space.
Fearing the unwanted deforestation government bodies has put laws in
place to control the usage of the shredder. There are also few trees whose
lifetime would end due to unavailability of resources for its growth. These
trees turn into dry waste which can be removed using the tree branch
shredder.
6. What do we mean by tree shredder?
The term shredder does not need a dictionary to understand the meaning. We can derive the meaning
from the words. Shredder is a machine that shreds the input items to smaller particles which may or
may not be for further processing. By tree shredder, we mean that the shredding process is extended to
trees. The dry trees and the unwanted trees or tree sections are shredded into small particles using high
powered machinery.
The machinery consists of internal combustion engine which generates the required power for the rotor
machines to work to their full efficiency. The smaller particles so generated from the machine are
called woodchips. Hence the tree shredder is also called as tree chipper or wood chipper.
There are different types of tree shredders which are presented in detail below.
7. Types of trees shredders
The tree branch shredder are classified based on the mechanism used to chip the trees. All the tree branch shredders
are powered with high power motors as this would make the shredder more efficient. The types are
1) Disc shredders: This category of shredder uses the discs which rotate at huge speeds. The sharp knives used to cut
the input tree limbs or trunk is placed on the disc. The high-speed motion of the knives chips the wood into small
pieces
2) Drum shredders: The drum shredders also work similar to the disc shredders but instead of a disc this uses a drum
over which the blades are placed. The drum is rotated using high-speed motors but via a belt between the motor
and the drum.
3) Other types: The above-mentioned types use sections of the trees to shred them to chips but there are other types
which use hydraulic motors that can swallow an entire tree trunk of 2-meter diameter. These types mostly use the
hybrid combination of drum and disc.
8. The main problem in tree branch shredder is the jamming of the machines. The jam happens because
the chips that are struck in between the blades and the motors. Also, the chips which are struck
between the blades reduce the efficiency of the output. The modern machines have the capability to
flush out the chips immediately. Also, the modern machines have a self-feeding mechanism with an
anti-jamming facility.
9. Safety
While using the tree branch shredder, safety has to be given utmost
priority. The handheld shredders also use high powered motors so that it
can cut a branch; hence care has to be taken not to come into contact
with the blades and the motors. Also, the wood chips are cut at a very
high speed and can damage your eyesight or any part of the body if they
come in direct contact. Hence make sure that you are well protected
with proper wear before starting the shredding process.
