StormBlade Shredding Technologies

From thick branches to leaves and fine debris, it handles it all effortlessly.
This comprehensive solution combines a dual-action cutting system with high-durability blades. Together, these features ensure reliable performance, consistent chip size and comfortable operation, eliminating unnecessary downtime and hassle.

Antistress System

This wood chipper can think for itself! It can manage the branch feed process independently. All the operator has to do is feed the material in; the “brain” of the machine handles the rest.
The electronic control unit constantly monitors the RPM of the cutting disc (minimum 1450 RPM). If the RPM drops, the feed is automatically stopped. Once the RPM has been restored, the feed will resume. This ensures stable operation, extends the service life of the knives and engine, and increases overall productivity. The wood shredder can easily shred branches with a diameter of up to 180 mm, regardless of the species of wood or its moisture content.

Minimum RPM

Now it controls everything itself—I just feed the branches, and the machine does the thinking for me!

TurboCut Cutting Unit

Stable cutting and flywheel energy. The disc is equipped with four circular knives that uniformly shred branches, creating a powerful airflow that easily ejects the chips through the discharge chute.
The disc is made of 30 mm-thick steel and has a diameter of 674 mm and a weight of 95 kg. Its substantial mass enables it to function as a flywheel, accumulating kinetic energy and reducing the load on the engine. Integrated blades generate an intensive airflow based on the fan principle, ensuring that chips are discharged evenly and without clogging. After welding, the disc undergoes mandatory balancing to eliminate vibrations and prevent premature wear.

Disc thickness

It doesn’t clog at all. It discharges the chips consistently even when the branches are wet – it’s really convenient.

CircleCut Circular Knives

Faster replacement and a longer service life. The unique circular knives, which are made of alloy steel (41CrMo4), can be rotated to extend their lifespan. The simple mounting design makes maintenance effortless.
The knives are made from 41CrMo4 alloy steel, which is renowned for its high impact toughness. The cutting edge undergoes induction hardening using High-Frequency Current, creating a hard surface layer (60 HRC) combined with a resilient core. This prevents the knives from fracturing under impact while ensuring stable performance under heavy loads. The circular geometry enables the cutting edge to be used in multiple ways simply by rotating the knife.

(60 HRC)

Great idea – you just rotate the knife and keep on cutting. They last much longer.

Adjustable Counter-blade

It secures the branch for precise, even cuts. The adjustable, ground counter-blade holds the branch firmly in place during the cutting process, ensuring clean cuts without “chewing”, particularly when processing thin or flexible wood.
Thanks to its precision-ground surface, the counter-blade is installed with minimal clearance to the main knives. The counter-blade can be moved closer to the drum as the knives wear down via slots on the body. This design ensures secure branch fixation and consistent shredding quality.

ARPAL Total Protect Security Package

Security isn’t a luxury — it’s a standard.
ARPAL Total Protect offers comprehensive solutions to safeguard you and your equipment, ensuring a safe and worry-free work environment.

Certificates
of conformity
to EU standards

We are a trusted brand in Germany, the UK, Switzerland, Ireland, and Australia. ARPAL is available in over 20 countries, thanks to its compliance with strict EU safety standards. This technology is rigorously tested — and it truly sets the standard.

Ensuring the chipper meets occupational health and safety standards is crucial for us. Thanks to ARPAL’s certification, we can confidently put it into operation.

Serhiy, agricultural company, Lviv region.

The machinery complies with
a number of standards, including:

EN 13525:2020 — protection against accidental contact with knives
EN ISO 12100:2010 — designed for safety with minimal risk
EN ISO 13854:2019 — optimal clearances to safeguard hands
EN 1005-4:2008 — ergonomic design to prevent physical overload
EN ISO 4413:2010 — stable hydraulics, without leaks
EN ISO 3744:2010 — noise levels below 80 dB, ensuring comfort during extended use

These standards are more than just a formality. They ensure safe operation, precise control, hand protection, and consistent material feeding. ARPAL represents a mindset that values not just productivity, but also the people who operate the machine every day.

An Extended Hopper and
a Quick Stop Safety Handle

You simply can’t reach the knives — the hopper is designed to make it physically impossible. And if anything goes wrong, just press the handle and the engine stops immediately.
The input hopper’s depth and design comply with European safety standards for garden machinery. The emergency stop handle is conveniently positioned on the edge of the hopper, ensuring it is always within easy reach.

Quick Stop Safety Handle

Finally, a device that truly keeps everything safe. You don’t have to worry about it catching your sleeve or glove. The protection is designed down to the smallest detail, so you can work calmly.

Maksym, Equipment Operator.

Protective shields and curtains

All hazardous elements are fully protected with guards, preventing accidental contact with the belt or flywheel. Yet, when maintenance is required, accessing these parts is quick and convenient.
The transmission components (clutch, belt, and pulley-flywheel) are enclosed within a double-sided casing for enhanced safety. The hopper allows crushed raw materials to be ejected in one direction only, minimizing the risk of injury. Additionally, the input is equipped with a protective curtain to guard against flying chips.

When I work, I don’t worry about my hands or clothes. Everything is closed. If I need to remove the casing, it’s quick and easy — I don’t have to spend an hour disassembling the equipment.

Taras, landscape designer.

ErgoBase functional design

ARPAL shredders are designed with convenience, durability, and smart functionality in mind. Simply switch it on, and it works — no complicated settings or adjustments needed.

Reinforced Input Hopper

A robust bunker built to withstand impacts. During operation, branches frequently hit the bunker walls. Therefore, we designed it to be as rigid and deformation-resistant as possible.
The hopper is reinforced with additional stiffening ribs around the perimeter and has a thickened base for protection against impacts from branches. Thanks to its solid, rigid design, it remains stable even when carrying heavy loads for long periods of time. High durability that can support the weight of an adult – you can comfortably sit or stand on top of it.

Not some flimsy tin shed — the bunker is solid. It can take a hit and hold.

Vasyl, homeowner

Adjustable Discharge Deflector

The wood chips land exactly where you need them. Thanks to the adjustable deflector on the discharge chute, you can set the discharge direction precisely — into a cart, a container or directly onto the ground. You can change the angle in seconds without any tools.
The deflector is secured by two hand knobs for easy manual adjustment of the discharge angle. The discharge chute can rotate through 360° and provides an ejection height of up to 2400 mm, allowing you to direct the chip flow in any direction without having to reposition the wood shredder. This significantly simplifies the process of loading into various containers and saves time during operation.

Simple and convenient. I set the direction, and all the chips fly straight into the cart. No need to clean up after the job is done.»

Vitaliy, “Yablunevyi Sad” Household, Vinnytsia Region
