Product Description

plastic shredder 101

Plastic shredder, also known as plastic crusher, is a solid waste reduction mechanical environmental protection shredder equipment, used to shred high-density polyethylene HDPE plastic products and materials, which is conducive to plastic reuse and recycled plastic particles. For example: mineral water bottles, PET bottles, motor oil bottles, gasoline bottles, plastic barrels, etc.

Plastic shredder is mainly composed of shredding blade group, bearing box, box bracket, feeding system, power system, and electrical control system. The size of the equipment is determined by the size of the material and the amount of material processing. The plastic shredder is designed with a filter device inside. When the plastic shredder works normally, the filter plays the role of separating materials and liquids, and effectively recycles the liquid remaining on the bottle. For example, when crushing gasoline bottles, the residual gasoline is effectively separated and recycled.

Working Principle Of Plastic Shredder Machine

Plastic shredders use dual motors to independently drive two main shafts to rotate forward and reverse. The moving knives on the main shafts engage with each other to form shearing, and the moving knife tip and the cylindrical surface of the knife sleeve form shearing. The tearing formed by the torsion and speed difference of the main shaft achieves the crushing effect. Due to the mutual engagement of the moving knives, the automatic feeding function can be achieved. In the production process of low speed and high torque, there will be no entanglement of the shaft or jamming of the equipment, thereby improving production efficiency.

Applications of Plastic Shredder Machine

Plastic shredder is an environmentally friendly shredder equipment for solid waste utilization. It is used to shred high-density polyethylene (HDPE) plastic products and materials such as metal, rubber, and wood. It is conducive to the recycling and regeneration of plastics and scrap metals, which makes it much more convenient to reprocess and transport raw materials.

The application prospects of plastic shredders in various fields are very promising. Now, as there are more and more waste products in recycling stations, the number of users using plastic shredders is also gradually increasing. The models and configurations of plastic shredders are different, and processing bases are emerging in an endless stream. The emergence of plastic shredders has brought a lot of convenience to later work.

FAQ

A: It shreds high‑strength, high‑toughness plastic materials – HDPE, PET bottles, motor oil bottles, gasoline bottles, plastic drums, plastic films, pipes, shells, cords, and packaging. Our ZZCHRYSO machine helps recycle plastic into reusable particles, supporting solid waste reduction and environmental protection.

A: Plastic containers (plates, bowls, bottles, cans, drums, boxes), plastic films (bags, packaging film, agricultural mulch), plastic pipes (PVC, PE), plastic shells, plastic cords, and other plastic products. It also handles materials mixed with metal, rubber, or wood.

A: Four models: CRS600 (800‑1500 kg/h), CRS800 (3000‑5000 kg/h), CRS1000 (5000‑8000 kg/h), and CRS1200 (6000‑10000 kg/h). Motor power: 18.5×2 kW (CRS600) up to 45×2 kW (CRS1200). Output size: 3‑10 cm (adjustable). Bin sizes range from 600×550 mm to 1400×1000 mm.

A: Dual motors independently drive two main shafts in forward and reverse rotation. The moving knives on the shafts engage with each other to create shearing action. The torsion and speed difference between shafts create tearing force, achieving the crushing effect. The mutual engagement of moving knives enables automatic feeding. Low speed and high torque design prevents shaft entanglement or jamming.

A: Yes. The machine is designed with a built‑in filter device. When shredding containers like gasoline bottles, the filter separates materials from liquids and effectively recovers residual liquid (e.g., gasoline). This is especially useful for oil bottles, chemical containers, and other liquid‑bearing plastics.

A: It uses PLC automatic control with start, stop, reverse, and overload automatic reverse functions. The machine is low speed, high torque, and low noise. Dust emissions meet environmental standards. The frame is thick and strong to resist high torque. The design is compact, easy to move, and simple to operate.

A: The heavy moving knives are cast in alloy steel – strong with long service life. Knife thickness and claw number can be changed for different materials. The frame is made of thick plates to resist high torque. Maintenance cost is low, and the equipment is economical and durable.

A: Daily: check blade sharpness, clean the shredding chamber, inspect bearings. Weekly: lubricate moving parts, check belt tension, clean the filter device. Monthly: replace worn blades, check the electrical control system, test safety devices. The split‑type bearing seat and easy‑access design simplify maintenance. We provide full manuals and spare parts support.
