Efficient plastic shredder machine is a kind of equipment used to recycle waste plastics, which is widely used in the plastic recycling industry. It breaks down waste plastics into small particles or flakes through efficient cutting, grinding and crushing action for subsequent washing, granulation, and reprocessing. The equipment is suitable for processing various plastic materials, such as PE, PP, PVC, PS, PET, etc. It is especially suitable for processing large quantities of plastics.
The video below can take you to visualize how this shredder can process waste plastics.
Introduction of Scrap Grinder Machine
Our scrap grinder machine is designed to meet the diverse needs of plastic recycling industries, offering a robust solution for processing a wide range of plastic waste materials.
The machine’s production capacity ranges from 600 to 1200 kg/h, making it suitable for recycling operations of various scales. The crusher machine comes in various models, and both the appearance and dimensions can be customized to fit specific space requirements and production needs.
Advantages of Recycling Shredder Machine
- Diversified applications: suitable for a wide range of plastic wastes, widely used in the recycling industry.
- Blade material: adopts high strength 60Si2Mn or 55CrSi material, which ensures the blade is durable and sharp, and enhances the crushing efficiency.
- Power mode: provide two power modes: motor and diesel engine, adapt to different working environment and needs.
- Optimized design: Water can be injected inside the machine to help lubrication and cooling, reducing blade friction heat and extending service life.
- Strong customization: screen size, voltage, moving and fixed blade clearance, feed opening, and appearance can be flexibly adjusted according to customer needs to ensure more efficient recycling results.
Materials For Plastic Grinder Machine
Plastic waste crushing machines are highly adaptable and can handle a wide range of different materials, which are usually divided into two categories: soft and hard materials.
Soft materials: Including but not limited to waste agricultural film, greenhouse film, industrial packaging film, nonwoven material, shrink wrap, stretch film, rubbish bag, bubble wrap, laminated film, jumbo bags, plastic strapping, drip irrigation tape, laminated film, jumbo bags, plastic strapping, drip irrigation tape.
Rigid plastics: including but not limited to pipe, food containers, automotive components, appliance shells, plastic drums, plastic baskets, injection molding waste, toys, shampoo bottles, plastic pallets, and bottles.
By adjusting the crusher machine design and settings (e.g., blade type, screen size, etc.), the shredder is able to handle a wide range of materials, ensuring efficient plastic recycling applications.
Crushed Plastic Sheets
After being processed in a plastic shredder machine, the waste plastics are crushed into small pieces or flakes. These crushed flakes are easier for subsequent recycling processes such as washing, drying, and granulation.
Power Mode of Recycling Crusher Machine
Plastic scrap crusher machines can be powered by either electric motors or diesel engines, each offering distinct advantages based on the operational environment and customer preferences.
Electric Motor: The electric motor is commonly used in areas where a stable power supply is available. It provides a reliable and efficient source of energy for the crusher, with low operating costs and minimal maintenance.
Diesel Engine: For locations where access to electricity is limited or unavailable, diesel engines offer a flexible and autonomous power solution. Diesel-powered crushers are particularly beneficial for mobile or off-grid recycling operations.
Working Principle of Plastic Shredder Machine
The working principle of a plastic waste crusher is to crush plastic waste into small particles or fragments by mechanical cutting, tearing and compression. Its main structure includes feed inlet, blade, rotor, screen and other parts.
- Feeding: Plastic waste enters the shredder through the feeding port.
- Crushing: The high-speed rotating blade on the rotor cuts and tears the plastic waste into small pieces and enters the crushing chamber.
- Screening: The crushed plastic is screened through a screen, the size of which determines the final size of the particles. The particles that meet the requirements are discharged from the outlet, while the unqualified ones are crushed further.
- Discharge: The final finished granules are discharged through the outlet to the next step of processing or packaging.
