What is the working principle of shredder machine?

A crusher breaks down material into smaller pieces by cutting or tearing it. The following is a detailed breakdown of how it works:

1. Feeding

Material is fed into the crusher via a feed hopper or conveyor belt. The feeding process is usually continuous to ensure efficient machine operation.

2. Cutting Mechanism

Inside the crusher, rotating blades or cutters are fitted. These blades are mounted on a shaft and rotate at high speeds. Depending on the design of the crusher, the shape and arrangement of the blades may vary to suit different materials and cutting needs.

3. Crushing Process

When material comes into contact with the rotating blades, the blades cut, tear, or shear the material into smaller pieces. The size of the pieces depends on the configuration of the blades and the spacing between the blades. Some crushers are also equipped with adjustable blades and screens to control the size of the final output pieces.

4. Discharge

The crushed material is discharged through a screen or grid, the aperture of which determines the size of the final output material. Some advanced crushers are equipped with automatic separation and conveying systems to ensure uniformity and ease of further processing.

Areas of application

Crushers can be used for a wide range of materials, including paper, plastics, metals, and electronic scrap. Crushers are indispensable in the recycling process, as they can significantly reduce the size of the waste material for subsequent handling and processing.
