What is a double axis shredder?

Double axis shredder is an efficient crushing equipment. It mainly reduces the size of materials through the shearing, tearing, and squeezing effects between two relatively rotating cutting tools. This device has a wide range of applications in multiple fields, including but not limited to the recycling and treatment of waste plastics, rubber, wood, household appliances, automotive plastics, packaging waste, and other waste materials.

Characteristics of Double axis shredder

• Efficient crushing: The dual axis shredder can quickly crush large pieces of material into small pieces, greatly improving the crushing efficiency.
• Energy saving: adopting advanced mechanical structure design, stable operation, and reducing energy consumption.
• Wide applicability: Suitable for various types of materials, including but not limited to the waste mentioned above.
• Durable and sturdy: Both the moving and fixed knives are made of alloy steel casting, which is sturdy, durable, and has a long service life. At the same time, the iron frame plate is thick and can withstand high torque, making it very sturdy.
• Easy to adjust and maintain: The maintenance cost of the equipment is relatively low, and it is easy to perform daily maintenance and adjustments.

Working principle of dual axis shredder

The working principle of a dual axis shredder mainly relies on the rotational motion of two main axes, and crushes materials through the mutual cooperation and shear action between the cutting tools. After the material is fed into the machine, it is gradually broken into small pieces by forces such as shearing, impact, and compression from high-speed rotating cutting tools. The crushed material is filtered through a sieve to achieve the desired particle size distribution.

Double axis shredder is suitable for materials

• Waste plastics: including various plastic packaging, plastic bottles, plastic buckets, plastic films, plastic pipe fittings, etc. The dual axis shredder can effectively crush these waste plastics into small pieces for subsequent cleaning, melting, and recycling.
• Waste rubber: such as waste tires, rubber hoses, rubber pads, etc. These materials can be crushed into smaller particles or fragments through shearing and tearing in a biaxial shredder, making them easy to recycle and reuse.
• Wood and biomass materials: including tree branches, wooden blocks, straw, rice straw, etc. These materials can be crushed into smaller fragments or particles in a dual axis shredder, which can be used for biomass energy production or as fertilizer.
• Scrap metal: Although the dual axis shredder is mainly designed for processing non-metallic materials, in some cases, it can also be used to process some lightweight scrap metals, such as iron sheets, aluminum cans, etc. However, for heavy metal components, more specialized metal crushing equipment may be required.
• Waste household appliances and electronic products: These materials typically contain various components such as plastic, metal, and circuit boards. A dual axis shredder can crush plastic and lightweight metal parts, but complex components such as circuit boards may require further processing.
• Household and industrial waste: The dual axis shredder can also be used to process large pieces of household waste such as furniture, mattresses, and industrial waste. These materials are easier to classify, recycle, and process after crushing.

Application scenarios of dual axis shredder

• Recycling of waste plastics: Crushing waste plastics into small pieces for subsequent cleaning, melting, and processing, ultimately producing recycled plastic pellets.
• Automotive plastic crushing: crushing plastic waste generated during the manufacturing process of automobiles to provide recycled materials for automotive manufacturing.
• Disposal of waste household appliances: Processing plastic, metal and other components in waste household appliances to achieve resource recycling and reuse.
• Biomass processing: Processing biomass materials such as crop straw to provide raw materials for the production of biomass energy.
