Shredding is a central process step in metal recycling that significantly contributes to reprocessing and the recovery of valuable resources. Preferably, shredders are used. They reduce large metal pieces into smaller, more manageable fragments, thereby greatly facilitating further processing and recycling.
There are various types of shredders, each optimized for different types of scrap and fragment sizes. These include, among others, hammer mills, rotor shears, granulators, and single or twin-shaft shredders. Each of these machines has its specific strengths and applications to ensure efficient and effective recycling.
Use of Shredders
Shredders are machines that reduce metal scrap into smaller pieces using rotating blades or hammers.
Different Types of Shredders:
Depending on the type of scrap and the desired end product, different shredders are used:
- Hammer Mills: Rotating hammers break the metal.
- Rotor Shears: Blade discs on two shafts reduce the scrap.
- Single or Twin-Shaft Shredders: Cut the metal against a fixed blade.
Technical Equipment
The equipment used in shredding metal scrap is designed for efficiency and safety:
- High-Performance Shredders: These machines are robust and can process large amounts of scrap in a short time.
- Conveying Technology: Transports the scrap through the various stages of the shredding process.
- Magnetic Separation and Screening: These technologies are optional components of the shredding process to ensure effective separation of the metals.
