Reduce the cuttings. Solve the disposal.

The Problem
Drilling cuttings come off a well as solids that still have to go somewhere. Reducing them to a consistent, manageable size is what makes injection or disposal practical.
How It Works
- 01
A horizontal shaft carries multiple rotors through the material rather than relying on a single crushing stage.
- 02
The rotor arrangement reduces rock and drilling cuttings to a size suited to downstream handling.
- 03
Wear components are treated as replaceable, because reducing abrasive solids consumes them.
Why It Matters
- The engineering lineage behind the current MTS-1450 cuttings unit
- The current machine is offered in a 50 HP configuration with replaceable blades
- Designed around a real disposal and injection workflow, not a generic crusher
