The metal two shaft shredder machine is a heavy-duty industrial equipment used for shearing, shredding and reducing the volume of various metal materials. It is the core equipment in the metal recycling and pre-treatment process.
1.Higher Revenue – Uniform shredded metal commands better prices from steel mills and foundries.
2.Increased Efficiency – Reduce labor costs and processing time dramatically.
3.Lower Transportation Costs – Densified shredded scrap takes up less space and weighs more per load.
4.Environmental Compliance – Support sustainable recycling goals and meet strict environmental regulations.
5.Long Service Life – Quality machines offer years of reliable service with minimal maintenance.
Scrap metal shredder Product Applications
Our scrap metal shredding machines are widely used in:
1.Scrap yards and recycling centers
2.Automotive recycling (ELV – End of Life Vehicles)
3.Metal manufacturing waste processing
4.Demolition and construction waste recycling
5.E-waste and appliance recycling
Whether you're processing light iron, heavy steel, or non-ferrous metals like aluminum and copper, the right shredder significantly increases your throughput and material value.
How does RITECH customize an Scrap metal shredder that truly suits a global customer's factory?
Clarifying Material Requirements
Material List
- Type: Color steel tiles, aluminum cans, iron filings, aluminum alloy profiles, steel with a thickness of less than 10mm.
- Maximum external dimensions (length × width × thickness) and single feed weight: 1400*1400mm
- Whether it contains impurities (plastic sealing strips, rubber hoses, wood, concrete) and their proportion. Contains a small amount of soil and other impurities.
Target Capacity and Output Requirements
- Hourly output (t/h) and annual operating hours.
- Output particle size: Steel mill remelting ≤50 mm; aluminum plant reprocessing ≤30 mm; W-t-E ≤150 mm.
- Bulk density requirements (kg/m³), which directly affect downstream transportation and smelting feed.
Site Conditions
- Feeding method: Forklift whole package, grab bucket, chain plate, or manual?
- Available installation dimensions, factory building height, and ground load-bearing capacity.
- Power supply: 380 V/50 Hz or 480 V/60 Hz; whether IE4 energy-saving motors are required.
- Environmental indicators: Noise limits, dust emissions (mg/m³), and local explosion-proof requirements.
Why Invest in a Premium Scrap Metal Shredder?
Modern industrial scrap metal shredders deliver powerful performance that transforms your recycling operation:
1.High Torque & Powerful Shredding: Designed to handle cars, appliances, steel beams, aluminum profiles, copper wire, and mixed scrap with ease.
2.Durable Construction: Built with hardened alloy blades and robust frames to withstand continuous heavy-duty operation.
3.Energy Efficient: Advanced hydraulic and electric drive systems reduce power consumption while maintaining maximum output.
4.Customizable Output Size: Adjustable screens allow you to control shredded piece size (typically 50–200mm) to meet furnace and downstream processing requirements.
5.Safety & Automation: Equipped with overload protection, auto-reverse systems, and PLC control for safe, user-friendly operation.
How to Choose the Core Configuration?
Cutter Head Thickness
Thin-walled cans: 20 mm; color steel tiles: 30 mm; scrap car bodies: 40–50 mm; cast iron chips: 60 mm or more.
01
Number of Claws
More claws result in more cutting cycles, but the cutting force per claw decreases; 3–5 claws are suitable for high-toughness materials, and 7–9 claws for brittle metals.
02
Rotation Speed
Dual-shaft: 10–25 rpm (high torque, suitable for car bodies); single-shaft: 60–120 rpm (high output, suitable for light scrap) [Reference: Memory Bank 3500t Mobile Ship Loader].
03
Screen Mesh Size
Steelmaking furnace: ≤50 mm; aluminum industry: ≤30 mm; W-t-E power plant: 80–150 mm; smaller mesh size results in lower output, requiring a trade-off.
04
Motor Redundancy
The motor power is selected based on the measured energy consumption per ton × 1.3 to ensure full-load startup even in low winter temperatures and during voltage fluctuations.
05
Prepare the following information and send it to RITECH to receive a preliminary quote on the same day:
1. For example, photos of the metal shredder machine material + maximum external dimensions + hourly production requirements;
2. Desired output particle size and bulk density;
3. Photos of the site power supply, factory building height, and feeding method;
4. Whether special certifications such as CE/UL, explosion-proof, and noise control are required.
