Size Reduction
In size reduction, shredders, granulators and other equipment are a large investment. Ensuring proper maintenance is a key part of an operator’s job.
For recyclers, a single-shaft shredder is a must-have piece of equipment in order to be competitive in today’s ever-changing landscape.
It is common to find a shredder or granulator on the floor of a plastics facility today, and measures must be in place to ensure the safety of operators and anyone who may be near the equipment.
Size reduction offers recycling processors the ability to enhance efficiency, with low-speed, meter-fed granulators that tackle sprues, runners and small parts, to high-speed closed-loop systems to feed regrind back into the machine hopper and shredders to larger scrap.
