Industrial Shredder Machine For Scrap Metal Recycling Plant Industrial Metal Shredder Machine

A twin-shaft Industrial Metal shredder is a device specifically designed for shredding metal materials. It uses blades mounted on two rotating shafts to apply shear, crushing, and tearing forces to various types of scrap metal, breaking large, irregularly sized scrap into smaller, uniform pieces or flakes for subsequent recycling, transportation, and reprocessing. This equipment is widely used in metal recycling, scrap metal processing plants, and other fields.

Working Principle

• Power Transmission: An industrial-grade motor provides powerful power, precisely transmitting it to the shredder's main shaft through a transmission system such as a belt drive, coupling, or speed reducer, ensuring stable rotation at the set speed and direction. A multi-motor drive system is typically used to ensure sufficient torque and power to handle high-hardness and large-sized metal materials.

• Material Input: Industrial metal materials are uniformly and continuously fed into the shredder's shredding chamber via a specialized feed system (such as a large feed hopper or conveyor). The feed system can be adjusted based on the material characteristics and the equipment's processing capacity to ensure stable and uniform feed.

• Crushing Process: Inside the shredder chamber, specially designed and materialized cutters (such as high-hardness alloy blades and claws) are mounted on the main shaft. These cutters, depending on their design and layout, crush the metal material through various forces, including shearing, squeezing, and tearing. For tough, entangled metal materials (such as wire and mesh), the cutters use powerful shearing forces to sever them. For hard, rigid metals (such as steel and alloys), squeezing and tearing are used to break them. Some industrial metal shredders utilize dual, quad, or even multi-shaft designs, with the cutters on each shaft working in synergy to enhance the crushing effect and improve efficiency.

• Discharge: The shredded metal scraps are discharged through the shredder's discharge port. The discharge size can be precisely controlled by adjusting the cutter spacing, main shaft speed, and shredder chamber structural parameters to meet the metal scrap size requirements of different industrial production processes.

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.
