A variety of used shredders for sale at Foeth

A shredder reduces material using various cutting tools to achieve a desirable size. The most well-known shredders are used for paper, but used shredders at Foeth are also useful in industrial applications like recycling plastic, scrap metal, or tire shredding. The primary objective of shredding materials is to prepare them for the nest process step. For instance, plastics are shredded to reduce their sizes and make them easy to feed into an extruder. Foeth supplies a range of second-hand shredders for various industrial processes. The used shredding machines perform optimally and produce the same product quality as new equipment since they are mechanically tested. Hence, you can save money without cutting on quality.

How does a shredder work?

Industrial shredders come in various designs depending on the function. However, the focus is on reducing the size of the feeding material. Typically, a shredder has a feed zone followed by a crushing chamber with size reduction tools. The size reduction tool is driven by a motor. Underneath the crushing chamber a screen can be placed to ensure the right size of the final product. In the crushing chamber, the shredder reduces the size of the materials by shearing, tearing, or fracturing the raw materials. Shearing is ideal for materials that require actual cutting to achieve clean cuts, while tearing involves pulling apart the materials with a substantial force, so they come apart. Fracturing materials is useful when the materials are brittle and need to be shattered or broken in the shredding machine.

Factors to consider when choosing an industrial shredder machine

If you are looking for a used shredder, you should consider some factors for selecting the ideal shredder. For instance, when you reduce the sizes of plastics, you should put them through a shredder with spinning knives. A twin-shaft shredder is ideal if you shred waste products with a lot of dust. Different materials have unique properties that perform differently during the shredding process. You should also consider the desired output when choosing a shredder for your production process. For instance, a single-pass shredder may not be ideal if you want the materials to be shredded to a minuscule size.
