Single-Shaft Shredder for Rigid Plastic Recycling
A high-performance rigid plastic shredder designed for ABS, PVC pipes, PC lumps, pallets, drums, purgings, and other bulky rigid scrap that need stable primary size reduction.
- Hydraulic ram supports consistent feeding of large rigid parts and purgings.
- Low-speed high-torque rotor helps reduce jamming and improve cutting stability.
- Interchangeable screens support controlled output for downstream granulation.
How It Works
Step 1: Smart Feeding
The hydraulic ram pushes rigid plastic scrap toward the rotor for more stable, hands-free processing.
Step 2: Powerful Shredding
A high-torque low-speed rotor applies shear force to bulky rigid material while helping reduce the chance of a jam.
Step 3: Consistent Output
Material passes through the screen for more uniform output before downstream granulation or washing.
Key Benefits
-
High Throughput
An optimized rotor and stable feeding system support efficient processing of bulky rigid plastic waste.
-
Built to Last
Heat-treated alloy blades and a heavy-duty machine frame help extend service life in demanding use.
-
Intelligent Anti-Jam System
PLC-based load logic and reverse function help protect the machine and reduce interruptions.
Turning Challenges into Opportunities
The Problems
Bulky rigid items often require manual pre-cutting, create downtime through jams, and lead to high blade wear and unstable output.
Our Solution
A wide hopper, hydraulic ram, durable rotor knives, and smart control logic help streamline shredding and support a safer, more stable workflow.

Why We’re Different
| Feature | Traditional Methods | Our Rigid Plastic Shredder |
|---|---|---|
| Handling Bulk Material | Often requires pre-cutting and manual handling | Hydraulic ram supports direct processing of bulky scrap |
| Automation Level | More manual intervention | PLC control and reverse logic improve stability |
| Operational Stability | More stoppages and inconsistent feeding | More stable continuous shredding workflow |
| Blade Lifespan | Standard wear performance | Alloy blades support longer service life |
| Safety | Higher manual handling risk | Enclosed design and smarter protection logic |
Frequently Asked Questions
It can process common rigid plastics such as PVC pipes and sheets, ABS housings, PC sheets, HDPE drums, plastic pallets, automotive bumpers, and extruder purgings.
The screen size determines the final particle size. Smaller hole sizes are suited to finer output, while larger hole sizes support higher throughput. We recommend matching the screen to your downstream process.
