What is Plastic Shredder Machine?
Plastic shredder is a piece of equipment used for roughly shredding big pieces of waste/scrap material into smaller sizes prior to the granulating process. Along with people’s increased conception of environment protection as well as the development of recycling technology, Plastic shredder plays a more and more important role in the recycling process. Most localities have laws regarding how to transfer and dispose large volume of manufacturing, office and even household waste, and plastic shredder helps related parties/companies meet these regulations by reducing large sizes of waste into smaller sizes.

 

When You Need a Plastic Shredder Machine?
Shredding plastic is an essential part of the whole plastic recycling process. Plastic shredder machine, plastic grinder machine or plastic granulator machine delivers the best plastic size reduction solutions. From plastic processing waste to post-consumer plastics, from large plastic recycling plants, small post-consumer plastic recyclers to post-industrial plastic recyclers, from ABS, Acetal, Acrylic, HDPE, HMWHDPE, LDPE, LLDPE, Nylon, Nylon 6, Nylon 66, PC, PET, Polyamide, Polyester, PP, PS, PU, PUR, PVC, TPE, TPO to UHW-PE, you can always find a tailored or suitable plastic size reduction machine in WANROOE.

We have single shaft shredder machine and double shaft shredder machine with two types of shredders, select the appropriate shredder as needed.

Industrial Waste Plastic Shredder Machine Components:

Pusher System Reinforced baseplate can reduce the impact caused by material entering the cutting chamber. A dust collection device is equipped at the bottom of the pusher system to guarantee the long-term stable performance of internal components.	Heat treated rotor knives Special DC53 steel (hardened) four edges use before the replacement
V-cutting rotor design with staggered cutter positioning	Wear Resistant Tungsten surface coating for abrasive applications
Easy operation Simply press the buttons on the control panel to control every movement, and “auto mode” can be selected on the control panel for fully automatic operation	Screen Unit Wide range of screens with a variety of configurations and mesh sizes are replaceable based on customers’ production requirements. The paper shredder will automatically stop while opening the screen unit to ensure operator safety. The screen is produced and mounted in sections, allow for easy maintenance.
PLC control Making it easier for fault diagnosis and maintenance	Hydraulic Station The pressure and rate of flow can be adjusted according to different materials.

How to choose a suitable plastic shredder?

To help choose a most suitable shredder to fit your need, you can ask yourself the following questions first:

1. What type of material will you shred?
Each type of shredder has its unique feature to process specific types of material. For example, plastic drums and bottles/containers are better to be processed by double shaft shredder because its feature of two cutting rotors can efficiently grip the light & hollow material; Thick & solid material such as purgings, wood blocks/pallets, plastic/paper bales are better to be handled by single-shaft shredder, attributing to its high-speed cutting rotor and the hydraulic pushing trolley.

2. What shredding throughput are you looking for?
Shredding throughput is mainly decided by the size of machine including hopper size, shredding chamber size, power size etc. The bigger the chamber is, the more material it can be loaded each time and therefore more efficient; the bigger the power is, the higher capacity and speed the machine can generate. Even for same machine, different material will result in different throughput because some material are easier to be shredded than others. In addition, material original size also affects shredding throughput – material in smaller size gives larger throughput than material in bigger size . For single shaft shredder, your choice of with or without screen will also give different throughput – without screen generates higher throughput than with screen. In conclusion, when choosing a shredder to meet your specific throughput, you have to take into concern for machine size, whether a screen is necessary, and the characteristics & size of your bulk material.

3. Is the feeding mouth of the shredder big enough for your material?
This is to be concerned only when you material is in big sizes, for example car bumpers, big size of carton/cardboard, large drums etc. If the feed opening is not big enough for the material to reach the rotary cutter, the machine does not work for your project at all.

4. Is the space of your workshop quite limited to locate the shredder?
Before purchasing a shredder, you have to think about the overall dimension of the shredder and whether a feeding conveyor in necessary for you to connect with the shredder. Check out the total space required for the whole shredding line including the necessary operation space, so as to make sure the space of your workshop is big enough to locate.

With answers to these questions, if you are still not sure which shredder to go for, contact WANROOE team freely to get a most suitable shredding solution.
