FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Cresswood Shredding Machinery Unveils Innovative “Dura-Glide” Roller Ram Design for Wood, Plastic and Paper Shredders, Delivering Major Efficiency and Cost Savings.
Cortland, IL – July, 18, 2025 – Cresswood Shredding Machinery, a leading innovator in wood, plastic, and paper size-reduction technology, proudly announces the launch of its newly engineered “Dura-Glide” Roller Ram System, a breakthrough in grinder design aimed at maximizing performance, reducing maintenance, and lowering total cost of ownership.
This cutting-edge roller ram replaces the traditional sliding-style ram on our larger machines, addressing long-standing industry challenges. By integrating precision-engineered rollers, the new design drastically reduces sliding friction—resulting in smoother operation and increased material throughput.
Key benefits of the new “Dura-Glide” Roller Ram design include:
Increased Process Efficiency – The reduction in sliding friction allows for faster and more consistent material feeding, significantly boosting grinder productivity and efficiency.
Reduced Downtime and Maintenance – The roller mechanism minimizes component wear, extending service intervals and reducing unplanned downtime.
Lower Cost of Ownership – Enhanced durability and reduced maintenance needs directly translate to long-term cost savings for operators.
Extended Hydraulic System Life – Reduced resistance leads to lower hydraulic pressures and temperatures, improving the reliability and lifespan of hydraulic components.
“Our goal was to address the everyday pain points our customers face in high-demand size reduction environments,” said Ryan Butzman, President of Cresswood. “With the “Dura-Glide” roller ram, we’ve created a solution that is not only more robust but also more efficient, reducing operational costs while improving machine uptime.”
The “Dura-Glide” Roller Ram System is now available as a standard feature on select new grinder models and as a retrofit upgrade for existing units.
