Key Features of the Swing Arm Shredder

Built for heavy-duty shredding performance, lower maintenance demand, and stable feeding with bulky materials.

  • High-Efficiency Shredding

    V-type rotor geometry delivers smooth cutting force, consistent particle size, and efficient energy use in continuous production.

  • Automated Material Feeding

    The hydraulic swing arm pushes material toward the rotor automatically, reducing bridging and improving throughput with less operator input.

  • Robust Low-Speed Operation

    High torque at lower speed helps reduce vibration, noise, and dust while maintaining strong cutting power for difficult materials.

  • Smart PLC Control

    Automatic start-stop logic and load sensing simplify operation and help protect key components under changing feed conditions.

  • Long Blade Service Life

    DC53 and D2 imported steel blades with indexable edges extend wear life and help control spare parts cost.

  • Reduced Maintenance Costs

    Four-sided blades can be rotated multiple times before replacement, lowering maintenance cost over the machine lifecycle.

  • Accessible Maintenance

    Blade rotation, screen replacement, and routine inspection are designed for faster service and shorter downtime.

  • Flexible Output Control

    Screen apertures from 40 mm to 100 mm support different downstream process requirements and material targets.

How the Swing Arm Shredder Works

A simple three-step process that keeps bulky materials moving toward the rotor without constant manual feeding.

  1. Step 1Material Loading

    Baled or loose material is loaded directly into the hopper without pre-shredding or manual bale opening.

  2. Step 2Automated Feeding and Shredding

    The PLC-controlled swing arm advances material into the rotor to maintain a more stable shredding rhythm.

  3. Step 3Uniform Output Discharge

    Shredded material passes through the selected screen aperture for more consistent downstream feeding.

Swing Arm Shredder Applications & Materials

This shredder is designed for bulky, compressible, or difficult-to-feed materials commonly found in plastic recycling plants.

  • Baled Films & Woven Bags

    Baled PE/PP films, agricultural mulch film, and woven polypropylene jumbo bags.

  • Post-Consumer Plastics

    Post-consumer film, commercial stretch wrap, and loose industrial packaging waste.

  • Lumps & Heavy Purges

    Large extruder purge lumps, thick-wall molding blocks, and dense production starts.

  • Bottles & Containers

    HDPE drums, PET bottle bales, crates, and blow-molded container scrap.

  • Fiber & Textile Scrap

    Synthetic carpet waste, textile trimmings, nonwoven rolls, and industrial ropes.

  • Cardboard & Paper Bales

    Dense cardboard packaging, carton waste, and compacted commercial paper bales.

Key Components and Construction

The swing arm shredder combines a heavy-duty rotor, hydraulic feeding arm, replaceable screen, and robust transmission system to process bulky materials reliably.

  • Hydraulic swing arm: Improves feeding continuity for films, bags, and compressed feedstock.
  • Indexable blades: Multiple usable edges help lower ongoing blade cost.
  • Replaceable screen: Output size can be matched to downstream washing or granulation needs.
  • Low-speed, high-torque drive: Supports stable cutting with less noise and vibration.

Frequently Asked Questions

Clear answers about swing arm operation, material compatibility, and output specifications.

This shredder is designed for baled PE and PP films, woven bags, agricultural film, post-consumer film, HDPE and PET bottles, large purges, textiles, and cardboard bales.

The hydraulic swing arm automatically pushes bulky material toward the rotor, which helps prevent bridging, stabilizes feeding, and increases throughput with less manual intervention.

Yes. The final particle size depends on the screen aperture under the rotor. Standard screen options range from 40 mm to 100 mm, and custom perforations are available for specific downstream requirements.

We provide a 12-month warranty, remote technical support, installation guidance, commissioning assistance, operator training, and spare parts support for long-term operation.
