Key strengths
Fields of application
The PSH Kraken 2300 is designed for shredding complex scrap such as whole cars and car bales even complete with engines and mechanical components, aluminium profiles, ferrous scrap, mixed and bulky scrap. The configuration of the shredding chamber and shafts allows large volumes to be handled continuously and accurately, maximising production performance.
Process safety and reliability
One of the added values of the PSH Kraken 2300 is its high effectiveness in protecting the treatment process. Thanks to its shredding logic, the machine also acts directly on potentially critical components such as cylinders or tanks, tearing them apart and releasing any residual gas or flammable liquids. This approach reduces the risk of damage or faults in subsequent stages and contributes to the overall safety and reliability of the plant.
Intelligent and flexible management
The closed-circuit hydraulic system, with variable displacement pumps and electronic control, allows torque and speed to be adjusted according to the material being processed. This allows a dynamic response to mechanical stresses and complete versatility in handling, as well as offering greater operational stability.
High-performance gearboxes
PSH Kraken 2300 incorporates planetary gearboxes dimensioned to withstand high loads and harsh working conditions. High performance is guaranteed by technology partners that are internationally recognised for the excellence of their quality standards.
Accessories

Volume reduction bar
Installed below the shredding chamber, it is suitable for the treatment of bulk materials such as ferrous collection and light aluminium.

Hydraulic cooling system
Designed to ensure thermal stability in the hottest climates, it maintains a constant oil temperature, protecting the system from ambient heat.
