What Raw Materials Can Be Crushed By The Double Shaft Shredder?

Ⅰ. INTRODUCTION

You’re overwhelmed by the amount of waste piling up, unsure how to handle it.
Dealing with mixed materials is messy and you are worried it will be hard to process, and current methods aren’t efficient or eco-friendly.
A double-shaft shredder could be the first step, to handle most of your waste, and improve recycling.

A double-shaft shredder can process a wide range of materials, like plastics, metals, and electronics. It’s good at handling bulky items and prepares them for further recycling, such as getting copper from wires. This first step makes the overall recycling work much better.

⭐ Definition of Double Shaft Shredder

Firstly, you need to know what is double shaft shredder.

A double-shaft shredder also referred to as a twin-shaft or dual-shaft shredder, represents a significant piece of industrial machinery employed for the initial processing and volume reduction of a wide array of materials. These robust machines are fundamentally designed to tear apart, cut, and crush materials into smaller, more manageable fragments. This is achieved through the interaction of two parallel rotating shafts, each fitted with a series of interlocking blades or knives. The primary function of a double-shaft shredder is to prepare raw materials for subsequent stages of processing, which can include recycling, efficient waste disposal, or the recovery of valuable resources. This initial breakdown of materials is often a critical step in optimizing the efficiency and effectiveness of downstream industrial operations.

I once visited a recycling plant where a double shaft shredder was the star, It easily handled bulky items like old sofas and mattresses. The owner told me how it cut down on labor costs, and improved their whole process.

The double shaft shredder is a good first step in recycling, which makes handling different types of waste easier, setting the stage for better processing. Let’s go deep into how the shredder is used for different kinds of materials.

What material is used for shredder blades?

I don’t know what the blades are made of and how long they will last.
Buying a shredder with the wrong blade will increase costs.
Let me explain the materials used for the blades so you can make a better decision.

Shredder blades are usually made from hardened steel alloys. Common choices include H13, D2, M2, and DC53. These materials provide high wear resistance and toughness. This helps the blades stay sharp and durable when processing hard or abrasive materials.

If you want better material, you can use HARDOX, but not recommend, because very low cost effective, price are higher more.

The type of steel used in shredder blades is important to how well the shredder works. Different alloys offer various levels of hardness, toughness, and wear resistance. Let’s look at some common materials and their properties.

⭐ Working Principle Of Double Shaft Shredder

Next, I will introduce to you how the double shaft shredder works.

The double shaft shredder is a coarse crusher and mainly has two rotating shafts, each with multiple blades. The operating principle of double-shaft shredders is straightforward yet highly effective. When the raw materials are fed into the crushing chamber, the rotating shafts grip them, drawing them inwards, tearing them apart, and diminishing their size. Finally, they are crushed into small pieces and discharged from the bottom of the box.

Ⅱ. 6 Advantages Of Double Shaft Shredder

After knowing the working principle of double shaft shredder, I will show you the advantages of our double shaft shredder.

⭐ Powerful Processing Capacity, Improve Work Efficiency

The double shaft shredder adopts the principle of double-shaft shearing crushing. Through two relatively rotating shafts equipped with special blades, the materials are sheared, torn and squeezed, thereby achieving rapid crushing of various soft and hard materials. This design makes the machine perform well in processing large-volume, high-hardness waste, such as scrap metal, wood, rubber, etc. Compared with traditional single-shaft or hammer crushers, double shaft shredders have higher crushing efficiency and lower energy consumption, greatly improving work efficiency and reducing operating costs.

⭐ Wide Applicability, Handle Diverse Materials

A highlight of our double shaft shredder is its wide applicability. Whether it is soft plastic film, or hard metal scraps, or even mixed materials containing impurities and moisture, the double shaft shredder can easily handle it. This flexibility makes the double shaft shredder widely used in many industries, including scrap material recycling, urban solid waste treatment, industrial waste reduction and other fields, becoming an important tool to promote the development of the circular economy.

⭐ Low Noise, Low Vibration, Environmentally Friendly

As environmental awareness grows, the double shaft shredder is designed with full consideration of environmental factors. The use of advanced noise reduction technology and damping device greatly reduces the noise and vibration generated by the machine during operation, reducing the impact on the surrounding environment and operators. At the same time, the double shaft shredder can effectively reduce the generation of dust and harmful gases when processing waste, meeting the high standards of modern industry for environmental protection equipment.

⭐ Intelligent Control, Easy Operation

With the development of intelligent technology, our double shaft shredders have also been integrated with advanced control systems. Through intelligent devices such as PLC, real-time monitoring and precise control of the machine’s operating status can be achieved. Operators only need to simply set parameters to finish the entire process of crushing and discharging, which greatly simplifies the operation process and reduces labor intensity. In addition, the intelligent control system also has fault self-detection and alarm functions, which can detect and solve problems in a timely manner to ensure the stable operation of the machine.

⭐ Strong Durability, Low Maintenance Cost

The blades and key components of our double shaft shredder are made of high-quality wear-resistant materials. After special processing, they have high hardness and toughness, and can withstand long-term, high-intensity crushing operations without being easily damaged. This design not only extends the service life of the machine, but also reduces the frequency and cost of replacing parts. At the same time, the double shaft shredder has a simple structure, and is easy to maintain, reducing downtime and repair costs.

⭐ Promote Resource Recycling

The wide application of double shaft shredders in waste treatment not only solves the problem of waste accumulation and environmental pollution, but also promotes the recycling of resources. Through crushing, waste is converted into reusable raw materials or energy, such as scrap metal can be recycled, scrap plastic can be processed, and scrap tires can be handled into rubber pieces. This process not only reduces the exploitation and consumption of primary resources, but also improves resource utilization.

Ⅲ. What type of raw materials can be shredded?

You’ve got a mix of waste, not sure what can be safely and effectively shredded.
Trying to sort everything by hand is time-consuming, and guessing wrong could damage equipment.
The good news, double shaft shredders are built to handle a variety.

Double-shaft shredders can handle many materials. Some of the most common ones are: Plastics (like bottles and containers), Metals (like aluminum cans and scrap metal), Paper and Cardboard, Wood (like pallets and crates), Textiles, Rubber (like tires), and E-waste.

Double-shaft shredders are very versatile. They can process many different materials because of their strong design and powerful motors. Let’s look closer at how these machines work, and the specific items, in everyday waste, that they can handle.
