Maximize Throughput
Process up to 1500 kg/h of bulky HDPE pipes, significantly boosting your plant's overall output and revenue.
Unmatched Durability
Heavy-duty construction and a shock-absorbing gearbox ensure reliable 24/7 operation, even with the toughest materials.
Smart, Automated Operation
A Siemens PLC system with a hydraulic pusher arm provides intelligent, jam-free shredding with minimal operator intervention.
Turn a Difficult Waste Stream into a Valuable Asset
The Challenge of HDPE Pipe Waste
- Large, bulky pipes are difficult and dangerous to handle and cut manually.
- Standard granulators or shredders easily jam or fail when processing thick-walled material.
- Inconsistent shred size creates problems for downstream washing and pelletizing lines.
The Heavy-Duty Shredder Solution
- Automated horizontal feeding eliminates hazardous manual labor and streamlines the process.
- High-torque rotors and intelligent controls power through the toughest materials without stalling.
- A removable screen guarantees uniform particle size, ensuring optimal performance of your entire line.
The 4-Step Shredding Process
1. Loading
Large HDPE pipes are easily loaded into the wide feeding chamber by forklift or crane.
2. Automatic Feeding
The hydraulic pusher arm advances the pipes into the rotors at a controlled, consistent rate.
3. High-Torque Shredding
Powerful, hardened steel knives on the rotors shear and tear the pipes into smaller pieces.
4. Screened Output
The shredded material passes through a screen, ensuring uniform size before being discharged via conveyor.
