The design of the old Model 450 scrap chopper has been taken and improved to be faster and more powerful; this new design is known as the Model 450 WM XHD Dual Drive Scrap Chopper. This particular scrap chopper is the chopper of choice for companies processing large volumes of plastic or PET banding and is the best in its class.

The dual drive scrap chopper features a 1 HP motor and added mass on the flywheel, which allows the chopper additional cutting capability. The wide infeed on this scrap chopper makes for effortless feeding for the operator, allowing a user to feed 4-8 straps of plastic banding at once. The dual drive feedworks design makes for quick and efficient processing of the scrap, even when the plastic banding is tangled in a nest of straps. This scrap chopper sits on an optional sturdy stand.
