Struggling with bulky plastic waste? Looking for a reliable way to reduce disposal costs and streamline your recycling process? Our innovative Plastic Crusher is the solution you’ve been searching for. At Rumtoo Machine, we’ve engineered a powerful, efficient, and user-friendly machine designed to be the cornerstone of your recycling operations.
These robust machines, often called plastic granulators in the industry, are essential tools for any business serious about plastic waste management. They excel at size reduction, transforming large plastic items into small, uniform flakes or granules that are perfect for reprocessing.
How Does Our Plastic Crusher Work? A Look Inside
The magic happens within the cutting chamber. Our plastic crusher machine operates with a high-speed, open rotor mounted with heavy-duty knives. We offer two cutting configurations to best suit your materials: a double-scissor cut or a V-shape array.
As the rotor spins, these sharp rotor knives precisely interact with stationary knives mounted inside the chamber. This continuous cutting action efficiently grinds the plastic material down until it’s small enough to pass through a screen filter. This process ensures a consistent and uniform particle size, which is critical for the next stage of recycling.
- Customizable Output: We can customize the filter screen size, typically from 10mm to 100mm, to meet your exact output requirements.
- Superior Blade Quality: Our standard granulator features 12 rotor knives and 3 stationary knives, all forged from ultra-durable D2 (SDK11 equivalent) high-carbon, high-chromium tool steel. This premium material ensures maximum longevity and edge retention, reducing the need for frequent sharpening.
Key Features Designed for Performance and Usability
We’ve packed our plastic crushers with features that deliver tangible benefits in your day-to-day operations.
- Built for Durability: A robust, square steel tube frame provides exceptional stability and ensures a long operational life, even under the most demanding workloads. The core shaft is forged from hardened 45# steel for superior strength and resistance to wear.
- Simplified Maintenance: Our user-friendly design makes all the difference. A motor-operated chamber provides quick, hydraulic-assisted access for easy cleaning, maintenance, and blade replacement, significantly minimizing downtime.
- Smart, Long-Lasting Design: By positioning the bearing house outside the cutting chamber, we prevent dust and contamination from causing premature wear, greatly extending the machine’s lifespan.
- Clean and Safe Operation: The machine’s hopper is specially designed with a protective curtain to prevent material from flying back, ensuring a safer and cleaner work environment for your team.
- Maximum Efficiency: The specially engineered “cross-type” cutter structure delivers high-throughput grinding with surprisingly low power consumption, making it a highly efficient and cost-effective investment.
Versatile Applications: What Can You Recycle?
This general-purpose plastic grinder is a versatile workhorse, perfect for a wide range of plastic recycling applications. It effortlessly processes materials including, but not limited to:
- Plastic Bottles (PET, HDPE)
- Plastic Films and Bags (LDPE, LLDPE)
- Containers, Buckets, and Bins
- Automotive Parts and Bumpers
- Pipes and Profiles
- Injection Molding Sprues and Runners
- Various other hard and soft plastics
Plastic Crusher vs. Plastic Shredder: Which Do You Need?
While both machines reduce the size of plastic, they serve different primary purposes. Understanding the difference is key to choosing the right equipment for your needs.
A Plastic Crusher (or Granulator) uses high-speed blades to cut and grind materials into small, uniform granules (“regrind”). It’s the ideal choice for creating consistently sized material that’s ready for immediate reuse or further processing, like in an extruder.
A Plastic Shredder, in contrast, uses high-torque, slow-speed cutters to tear and rip bulky materials into smaller, irregular-sized strips. It’s primarily used for initial volume reduction, especially for tough or contaminated materials, before they are potentially fed into a granulator.
| Feature | Plastic Crusher (Granulator) | Plastic Shredder |
| Action | Cuts & grinds with high-speed blades | Tears & rips with high-torque cutters |
| Output | Small, uniform granules/flakes | Irregular, rough-edged strips/chips |
| Ideal For | Bottles, film, pipes, production scraps | Bulky items, mixed waste, purgings |
| Primary Goal | Creating ready-to-use recycled material | Initial, heavy-duty volume reduction |
