Waste Cardboard Shredder For Solid Waste Paper Recycling
A cardboard shredder is a mechanical device specifically designed to shred various types of cardboard. It mechanically breaks down cardboard of varying sizes, thicknesses, and stacks into smaller, uniform pieces or chunks, facilitating subsequent recycling, transportation, reprocessing, and reuse of the cardboard materials. It is a key piece of equipment in the cardboard recycling process.
Working Principle
1. Power Transmission: The motor provides power, which is
transmitted to the shredder's main shaft via a transmission
mechanism such as a pulley, coupling, or reducer, causing the main
shaft to rotate steadily at a set speed and direction. Depending on
the machine's processing capacity, a single motor, dual motors, or
multiple motors may be used to ensure sufficient power to shred the
cartons.
2. Material Input: Cartons to be processed are fed into the
shredder's shredding chamber through a feed system (such as a
hopper or conveyor). The feed system controls the speed and volume
of the material to ensure uniform and continuous delivery of
cartons to the shredding area. 3. Shredding Process: Within the
shredding chamber, special cutting tools (such as high-hardness
alloy blades and claws) are mounted on the main shaft. Once a
carton enters the chamber, the high-speed rotating cutters apply
shearing, squeezing, and tearing forces to the carton. The rotation
of the cutters cuts and tears the carton apart, breaking it into
smaller pieces. Some carton shredders utilize a dual- or quad-shaft
design, where the cutters on each shaft work together to enhance
the shredding effect, resulting in more efficient and uniform
shredding.
4. Discharge: Shredded carton fragments are discharged through the
discharge port. The size of the resulting fragments can be
controlled by adjusting parameters such as the spacing between the
cutters and the main shaft speed to meet the required fragment size
for subsequent processing (such as packaging, transportation, and
reprocessing).
Applicable Materials
1. Corrugated Cardboard: Commonly used for logistics and product packaging, corrugated
cardboard boxes are the primary processing material for carton
shredders, including boxes made of varying layers of corrugated
cardboard.
2. Flat Cardboard: Flat cardboard boxes, such as packaging boxes and gift boxes, can
also be shredded by this equipment.
3. Waste Cardboard Piles: Accumulated, disorganized waste cardboard can be directly fed into the equipment for shredding without extensive pre-processing.
Waste cardboard shredding can be performed with either a dual-shaft or single-shaft shredder. Suitable materials include:
1. Metals: Scrap steel, aluminum alloy, copper, stainless steel, and other
metal products, such as used car hulls, metal shelves, and metal
pipes. Shredders facilitate metal recovery and remelting.
2. Plastics: Various plastic products, such as plastic film, plastic pipes,
plastic containers, and plastic pallets. Shredded plastics can be
further processed into recycled plastic pellets for use in the
manufacture of new plastic products.
3. Rubber: Rubber products such as used tires, rubber hoses, and rubber mats.
Shredded rubber can be used to produce recycled rubber, rubber
floor tiles, and other products.
4. Wood: Scrap wood, wooden pallets, wooden furniture, and tree branches.
After processing in a shredder, wood can be used in industries such
as biomass power generation, wood-based panels, and papermaking.
5. Paper: Waste paper, cardboard, and cartons. Shredded paper facilitates
subsequent recycling in papermaking.
6. Fiber: Fiber products such as used clothing, carpets, and non-woven
fabrics. These waste materials can be shredded and reprocessed into
fiber products or other products.
Advantages
1. Efficient Shredding: It can quickly process large numbers of
cartons, significantly reducing processing time and improving the
efficiency of carton recycling. It can accommodate shredding of
cartons of varying quantities and accumulation levels. 2. Excellent
Shredding: It shreds cartons into uniform fragments, facilitating
subsequent compression, packaging, and transportation. It also
facilitates subsequent reprocessing, such as into recycled pulp.
3. High Adaptability: It can process cartons of various types and
sizes, including corrugated and flat cartons, and can accommodate
cartons of varying thicknesses and materials.
4. Excellent Stability: The machine's rational structural design,
utilization of high-quality materials, and advanced manufacturing
processes enable it to withstand heavy workloads, operate stably
and reliably, and minimize the likelihood of malfunctions.
5. Environmental Protection and Energy Saving: Some carton
shredders are equipped with dust removal devices to effectively
reduce dust pollution generated during the shredding process.
Furthermore, the optimized power system reduces energy consumption,
meeting environmental and energy conservation requirements.

The waste cardboard shredding and recycling process primarily
includes the following steps:
The waste cardboard shredding and recycling process primarily
includes the following steps:
1. Pretreatment: The waste cardboard boxes are initially sorted to
remove non-paper impurities such as tape, plastic film, and staples
adhering to the surface (this can be done manually or with the
assistance of simple magnetic separation or air separation) to
ensure stable operation of the subsequent equipment.
2. Conveying and Feeding: The cleaned waste cardboard boxes are
evenly fed into the shredder feed port via a belt conveyor or
grabber. The conveying speed is adjusted according to the
equipment's processing capacity to avoid blockage and ensure
continuous and stable feeding.
3. Shredding and Crushing: The waste cardboard boxes enter the
dual-shaft or quad-shaft shredder. High-speed rotating alloy blades
(or claws) apply shearing, squeezing, and tearing forces to the
boxes, breaking them into uniform fragments of 10-30 cm (adjustable
size). The multi-shaft design improves shredding efficiency and
accommodates waste cardboard boxes of varying thicknesses (such as
three- and five-layer corrugated boxes) and stacked states. 4.
Secondary Sorting (Optional): If higher purity is required, the
shredded material can be further refined through magnetic
separation (to remove impurities again), air separation (to
separate light plastic residue), or screening (to classify by
particle size) to ensure that the shredded material is primarily
fiber.
5. Baling/Reprocessing: The shredded carton shreds are transported
via an outfeed conveyor to a baler for compaction into blocks for
easier transportation. They can then be directly transported to a
paper mill for pulping and recycling, or used in biomass fuel
production, achieving resource recycling.
