The twin-shaft grinder that prevents clogging and blockages
How the twin-shaft grinder XRipper works
Installed directly in the fluid current, the wastewater (or other flowable medium) passes through the twin-shaft grinder XRipper virtually without hindrance. Thanks to the generously dimensioned housing, pressure loss is minimal. Solid matter and foreign matter arrive at the twin-shaft grinder XRipper along with the fluid flow, and are then guided into the central area, to the Ripper rotors. These take hold of the disruptive matter, draw it in, and shred it. In the process, solid matter is ripped, the sharp edges cut long-fibered material to pieces, and coarse and brittle components are ground up. The size-reduction ratio is adjusted by modifying the width and contour of the Ripper blades. With low speeds and high torque, the XRipper only requires low drive power to efficiently prevent clogging, blockages and damage to downstream pumps and valves.

Control technology for Vogelsang technology
Investing in our progressive and smart control technology significantly boosts the performance and efficiency of Vogelsang machines and systems. It captures and continuously monitors key parameters like the capacity or throughput rate, rpm, pressure and power consumption. The control detects malfunctions early, and rectifies them by intervening appropriately. The integrated communication interfaces like ProfiNet and OPC UA can exchange data with other systems or a superordinate control in real time.
At the same time, the web-based user interface displays all key data clearly in all major browsers. Optionally, the data can be accessed on mobile devices for remote monitoring.
Our experts’ experience from hundreds of applications in various areas constantly inspires our software development and lays the foundation for the major benefits for the users: low operating costs, maximum availability and efficiency.
Our range of controls offers the right solution for all machine requirements and all customers’ needs. From ready-to-use, factory-tested and commissioned system solutions for end users, to basic versions for experts who want to put the finishing touches to the control technology themselves.

The compact inline twin-shaft grinder for pipe systems
Wastewater grinder XRipper XRP
If you need to carry out shredding in a tight space and barely have room to install a grinder, let alone service and maintain it, the twin-shaft grinder XRipper XRP is what you need. The motor mounted above the XRipper keeps the floor space used to a minimum. This means it can be easily installed in even the tightest of shafts. Coarse and high-volume disruptive matter contained in the wastewater, such as wet wipes, textiles, wood and plastic bags, is reliably reduced to an unproblematic size thereby preventing clogging, blockages and damage to downstream pumps and valves. Meanwhile the clever design concept ensures excellent accessibility when maintenance work is required: the entire functional unit is simply lifted out while the machine body remains firmly screwed onto the pipe system.

Reliable twin-shaft grinder for open channels and shafts
Twin-shaft grinder XRipper XRC-SIK
The XRipper XRC with SIK (Sewer Integration Kit) is ideal for installation in open wastewater channels and/or upstream of inlets and inflows in shafts and pits. Even large orifice heights can be easily achieved with the XRipper XRC thanks to the QD bearing. Thanks to the flexible Sewage Integration Kit the XRipper XRC can also be easily positioned in open wastewater channels and/or against slanted or even rounded walls directly upstream of the inlet and/or discharge. Disruptive matter contained in the wastewater, such as hygienic products, textiles, clothing, cleaning rags or garbage, enters the XRipper XRC along with the fluid stream where it is reliably shredded to an unproblematic size. This prevents clogging, blockages, and damage to downstream pumps, valves, and units. For maintenance and service, the entire grinder is simply raised out of the channel and/or shaft/pit using the SIK.

The powerful twin-shaft grinder with maximum flow rates
Twin-shaft grinder XRipper XRG
High flow rates, such as those occurring in large sewers and inflows of sewage treatment plants, can only be mastered with appropriately large yet efficient shredders. The twin-shaft grinder XRipper XRG was developed specifically for these applications. The sieves of the High Capacity Units arranged laterally in the housing permit large quantities of (waste)water to pass by unhindered, while catching and holding back the disruptive matter and waste. This is continuously fed into the Ripper rotors which reduce them to a manageable size. For removal of the functional unit just remove a couple of screws on the housing is all that is required.
