Craft Details
How Do Plastic Crushers Work?
When the motor activates the dynamic blades, they rotate against the fixed blades in the cutting chamber. Material fed into the chamber is cut and ground through the interaction between the rotating blades, fixed blades, and mesh screen, facilitated by gravity.
Why Choose a Rumtoo Plastic Shredder?
- Flexibility: Customizable with different rotors and blade structures based on material properties.
- Easy Cleaning: Simply open the cover for cleaning (ensure power is off for safety).
- Quiet Operation: Sound insulation available to reduce noise to 85 dB.
- Simple Maintenance: Modular design allows easy disassembly of the feed hopper, crushing chamber, and filter. Blades can be resharpened multiple times for extended life.
Considerations When Buying a Shredder
#1 Material to Crush
Inform Rumtoo Machine about your primary materials (e.g., bottles, tubes, drums), and we will recommend the most suitable crusher.
#2 Crushing Efficiency
Efficiency depends on the motor, number of cutter shafts, and blade style. More cutter shafts enhance efficiency and results. Collaborate with our experts to achieve desired functionality.
#3 Crusher Power
Power correlates with crushing capacity. Options range from 5 HP (300 kg/h) to 100 HP (2 ton/h), depending on your line’s needs.
#4 Body Materials
Choose from A3 steel, 201 stainless steel, or 304 stainless steel. Silent materials can reduce noise to 85 dB.
#5 Soundproof Function
For soundproof crushers, ensure:
1. The crushing chamber is wrapped in soundproof material.
2. The body has a sealed structure design.
Types of Blades
Claw Blade
Ideal for flexible, resilient materials like nylon fishing nets, with two or more axes for effective crushing.
Flat Blade
Best for PET bottles or HDPE containers, offering efficient processing into small flakes. Suitable for diverse plastic waste.
Piece Blade
Designed for thin, soft materials like PE film or PP fabric, often used in small crushers for injection molding waste.
