Scrap Shredder Machine for Scrap Metal Recycling
Products Description
A scrap shredder is a mechanical device used to shred and shred various waste materials. It is designed to break down large, irregularly shaped, or tangled waste into relatively small, uniform fragments or particles for subsequent recycling, transportation, processing, or reprocessing. It is widely used in various industries and is a key piece of equipment in resource recovery and waste disposal.
Working Principle
A scrap shredder primarily relies on the rotational motion of its blades to generate powerful shearing, squeezing, and tearing forces to shred waste.
• The core component of the device is the blades mounted on the main shaft. The motor, through a speed reducer, drives the main shaft at high speed, which in turn rotates the blades mounted on the main shaft.
• When waste enters the shredder chamber, the rotating blades interact with the stationary blades (if present) or the material itself, exerting shear and tearing forces on the waste. Simultaneously, the material is squeezed between the blades and the chamber walls, gradually breaking it into smaller pieces.
• For some tough or tangled waste materials, such as wire and plastic film, shredders use powerful torque and the cutting action of their blades to break them down into easily manageable pieces.
Applicable Materials
1. Metals: Scrap steel, aluminum alloy, copper, stainless steel, and other metal products, such as used car hulls, metal shelves, and metal pipes. Shredders facilitate metal recovery and remelting.
2. Plastics: Various plastic products, such as plastic film, plastic pipes, plastic containers, and plastic pallets. Shredded plastics can be further processed into recycled plastic pellets for use in the manufacture of new plastic products.
3. Rubber: Rubber products such as used tires, rubber hoses, and rubber mats. Shredded rubber can be used to produce recycled rubber, rubber floor tiles, and other products.
4. Wood: Scrap wood, wooden pallets, wooden furniture, and tree branches. After processing in a shredder, wood can be used in industries such as biomass power generation, wood-based panels, and papermaking.
5. Paper: Waste paper, cardboard, and cartons. Shredded paper facilitates subsequent recycling in papermaking.
6. Fiber: Fiber products such as used clothing, carpets, and non-woven fabrics. These waste materials can be shredded and reprocessed into fiber products or other products.
