Sweed Model 300 Strap Chopper

The Sweed Model 300 is a tough machine at an affordable price. This economical strap chopper helps keep your warehouse, docks or yards free of scrap strapping and banding, improves workplace safety, and reduces material dumping fees. It’s used by timber suppliers, beverage manufacturers, food producers, breweries, building material producers, and various types of distribution centers.

A versatile machine, this unit chops PP, PET, steel strapping, and other lightweight scrap materials. Simply feed an initial portion of the strapping into a 1" x 1 5/8" tunnel opening and the pinch rolls will grab it and pull it into the rotating knife path. This self-feed system will continue to pull at a 109 feet per minute until the material being chopped has been completely consumed or the operator uses the feed release lever.
