Plastic single shredder is used for materials that are highly resistant to fracture and thick. The rotors of these single shaft shredder are made of wear-resistant alloy, which makes them smooth and have a contour. When using abrasive or easily heated materials, such rotors will not overheat due to the uniform distribution of heat generated by friction.

The working principle of a single axis shredder is as follows: the shredded material is fed into the hopper through a hydraulic pre-press, into a rotating rotor, and the cutting tool is fixed on the rotor.

Materials can be loaded mechanically (using loaders or inclined conveyors) or manually. The press then performs reciprocating motion, pressing the material onto the rotating rotor.

In this area, the waste has undergone initial destruction. Then cut the material into smaller pieces in the cutting area. Afterwards, the crushed particles fall onto the sieve under the action of gravity, and there are certain sized pores in the sieve, which determine the final fraction value. The fragments of the material were proven to be larger than the size of the small holes and were sent for secondary grinding. Wait a minute. Repeat these cycles until all processed materials are completely crushed.

As we have already mentioned, a single shaft (or single shaft) shredder is a universal type. But it is most commonly used for recycling glass, thick walled plastic, film materials, glass, runners, paper, pallets, and pipes.
