Rotor Turn Device
Riverside Engineering’s Rotor Turn Device provides a means of turning your shredder’s rotor with ease during regular hammer replacement. We use a hinged gear motor, attached near the shredder main drive coupling to move your rotor via large geared disc mounted at the shredder drive coupling. An electric actuator will raise and lower the gear motor in place to engage or disengage the Rotor Turn Device from the Shredder Main Drive Shaft.
During rotor maintenance, the rotor can be held in place with our Rotor Locking Device. The rotor is held in place by a circular lock plate that is mounted to the non-drive side of the rotor shaft. The lock plate is constructed with holes that line up with a lock pin assembly to prevent the rotor from moving. |
