Sure, there are many ways to part out or scrap a vehicle, and as much as it may upset us as car people, we have to admit that, Hammel’s Red Giant mobile shredders are pretty impressive machines, if we must say so.
The two biggest mobile offerings from the German manufacturer of shredders and complete processing plants are the VB 950 and VB 1500, with the latter being a…serial car killer as it’s capable of turning an automobile into bits and pieces of metal and other materials in around 30 seconds.
The VB 950 has a single Caterpillar C18 diesel engine pushing out 710PS (700hp) and…440,000Nm (324,483 lb-ft) of peak torque, and if that doesn’t impress you, how about the VB 1500 that has two C18 diesel mills delivering 1,500PS (1.479hp) and – wait for it- 1 million Nm or 737,463 lb-ft!
Head over the jump for the videos.
