PureCut
shredding
technologies

From delicate twigs to hefty branches, it handles it all effortlessly.
A set of technical solutions that provide an accurate, powerful and reliable chipping system. These knives stay sharp for years, never breaking on twigs or nails. One sharpening is enough for up to 200 m³ of wood! They deliver precise cuts and consistent, reliable performance.

ARPAL ExtraCut Knives

  • Processes up to 200 m³ of wood per sharpening. Equipped with reliable knives made from durable AISI 5140 steel, featuring a double sharpening angle and a hardened cutting edge for consistently long-lasting, stable performance.

  • The knives undergo precise heat treatment: the outer layer is hardened to 50 HRC on the Rockwell scale for exceptional durability, while the inner layer remains elastic to prevent chipping. A double sharpening angle further extends their lifespan, allowing for up to six re-sharpenings.

200 m³
per sharpening
  • Hardened cutting edge 50 HRC
  • Double bevel sharpening

I’ve chopped more times than I can count, and I still haven’t had to sharpen them. They cut just like new.

KineticCore 6.25 Gearbox

  • Even the thickest branches are no challenge.
    Thanks to a gearbox that boosts torque by 6,25 times, you can cut through them with ease and confidence, even under heavy load.

  • The design incorporates three heat-treated gears that enhance knife traction, ensuring the cutting mechanism runs smoothly and reliably—even when processing tough, irregular raw materials.

torque increase

I pushed in an entire bush, and it sliced through like butter. More power than I ever expected.

Stabilizing inertia flywheel

  • Perfect chopping — steady and seamless.
    The 15 kg flywheel provides optimal inertia, ensuring the shredder operates consistently and without jolts or slowdowns, even when tackling thick branches.

15 kg
Flywheel weight

The engine’s rotation is transmitted via a belt drive to the flywheel mounted on the drive shaft of the cutting mechanism. Thanks to its 15 kg mass, the flywheel stores energy, helping to cut through thick branches evenly without overloading the engine.

Whether it’s oak or acacia — no strain at all. The motor never chokes and runs smoothly.

Oleg, private farm owner

SmartFix cone clutches

  • Precision in every cut.
    Tapered couplings allow the blades to be aligned perfectly in one plane, enabling the shredder to handle even the thinnest branches with ease.

  • Unlike rigid connections (splines, keys), tapered couplings do not wear out over time. They eliminate backlashes and allow for precise adjustment of the gap between the blades. In case of overload (over 2000 Nm), the coupling slips, protecting the mechanism from damage.

I saw how it shredded a business card at the exhibition — after that, no one had any questions about its ability to handle branches.

Ideal fastening of knives

  • The knives are held firmly in place and remain stable even under load.
    Unlike many models where the knives are simply screwed onto a flat surface, ours are set into precision-milled grooves — ensuring exceptional reliability and accuracy.

  • The fastening system uses a groove fit and high-strength class 12.9 bolts with sealant. This design ensures even load distribution along the shaft and allows for quick, precise knife adjustment after sharpening.

In standard shredders, knives tend to shift over time, affecting performance. Our design locks them precisely in keyways and secures them with high-strength bolts, ensuring absolute stability — no shifting, ever.

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
  • EN 55012:2009 — electromagnetic compatibility; does not cause radio interference

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.

PowerGuard protective friction clutch

  • This system protects the motor from overload if you accidentally load a branch that exceeds the permissible diameter into the chipper. Rather than “killing” the motor, the chipper simply stops without damage.

  • A friction clutch of ARPAL’s own design is installed on the motor shaft. If the cutting unit is overloaded, the clutch automatically disengages the motor from the load. This prevents sudden motor stoppage and helps prolong its service life.

A few times it happened so that the branch was just too big. The engine didn’t stall — it simply idled. You remove the branch and carry on. It’s smooth and stress-free.

Mykola, private gardener.

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.

Easy Start friction clutch

  • Smooth start with no jerks or strain – the engine fires up effortlessly and seamlessly.

    When started, the engine revs without engaging the chopper mechanism. The clutch engages smoothly only once the engine reaches around 1500 rpm, at which point the entire cutting mechanism begins to rotate.

>1500 rpm
Clutch engagement

For example, if a branch gets stuck and needs to be removed, the blades can be rotated easily since they are not connected to the engine. Similarly, when starting the engine, there is no need to rotate the entire mechanism — only the engine itself.

Conveyor with gas lifts

  • Maximum productivity, minimal effort.
    Feed shredded material up to 3.3 meters high directly into a trailer, bag, or another container. Gas lifts allow the conveyor to be folded and unfolded effortlessly, so that even a person can handle it without assistance.

3.3 m
Max loading height

The conveyor features both folded and unfolded positions for easy transportation and storage. It is equipped with a four-layer polymer belt manufactured in the Netherlands. The conveyor chains are ultrasonically welded for durability. The inclination angle is adjustable via a winch, and the maximum loading height reaches 3.3 meters.

The transporter is incredibly convenient – we only need one assistant, and our work goes three times faster. The gas lifts are an absolute game-changer! 

Oleksandr, farmer from Vinnytsia region

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 structure is reinforced along its perimeter with additional stiffening ribs and a supporting channel, while the attachment to the cutting module features a 4 mm-thick steel flange. This design prevents deformation or settling over time.

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

Vasyl, homeowner

Reliable certified trailer

  • The trailer is robust, durable, and fully corrosion-resistant, designed to endure any conditions. It is certified for safe use on public roads.

  • The structure is hot-dip galvanized, with a protective zinc coating covering all components, including the interior and welds, ensuring long-lasting durability. The trailer has racks designed for even weight distribution, along with stops that secure the load and prevent rollback.

The trailer is sturdy and dependable, handling rain or snow with ease. We drive it on the roads without any issues, delivering the chipper to the job site quickly and comfortably. 

Petro, arborist

Powder coating

  • Long-lasting protection — no rust or peeling. The coating stays strong, vibrant, and intact without fading or cracking over time.

  • Polymer powder paint is applied using a static charge and then baked at high temperatures, forming a dense, durable, and long-lasting protective coating.

Customers often send us videos after 3–4 years of use and it is hard to believe the feedback — the wood chipper still looks as if it just rolled off the production line.

Not a single tool needed

  • All components are easily unscrewed and removed by hand — no keys or screwdrivers required. Maintenance can be carried out effortlessly, without any additional tools.

and that might really save the day.
