Presentation<\/h2>\n

Plastic waste can come in a variety of shapes and sizes. To facilitate their processing, they are shredded into small particles of uniform size. In this form, they can more easily be recycled.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column el_class=”mt2″][vc_single_image image=”19402″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center” qode_css_animation=””][\/vc_column][vc_column el_class=”descriptions_machine”][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

Items Description<\/h2>\n

The shredder consists of a hopper<\/strong>, a cutting chamber<\/strong>, fixed blades<\/strong>, and a rotor<\/strong> equipped with rotating blades<\/strong>. A grid<\/strong> below the cutting chamber defines the size of the output particles.[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

Process Description<\/h3>\n

Plastic waste is inserted in the shredder from the top via a hopper. They then fall into the cutting chamber, where both the rotor and blades rotate at high speed. These rotating blades intersect with fixed blades, cutting plastic waste like scissors. As long as the plastic particles are too big, they continue to be shredded. When small enough, they reach the grid under the rotor. The grid can be changed to obtain pieces of different sizes.[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

Case Study<\/h2>\n

Essential for recycling and reducing the volume of material, shredding alone is an efficient way of recycling plastic waste. Widely used, shredders usually respond to a specific type of waste. Albeit the expense of their productivity, robust and efficient shredders processing all types of plastic do exist and have already been used in the recycling field.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column el_class=”informations_techniques”][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n
