Ecnomic Single Shaft Shredder For Waste ABS 

ABS is short for Acrylonitrile butadiene styrene. ABS plastic is a lightweight and low cost engineering material which is easy to machine and fabricate. ABS is an opaque thermoplastic and amorphous polymer. ABS is characterized by good machinability, excellent aesthetic qualities, easy to paint and glue, good strength and stiffness.  It is an ideal material for structural applications when impact resistance, strength, and stiffness are required. All of these characteristics lead to ABS being used in a large number of applications across a wide range of industries. This is also why ABS shredder is so popular.

ABS is widely used for machining pre-production prototypes since it has excellent dimensional stability and is easy to paint and glue. There are many applications for ABS. The typical applications can be summarized as appliance housings, children’s toys, machined prototypes, structural components, support blocks and covers.

Purchasing new ABS is a bit expensive and recycling ABS is a good idea to low down your cost. ABS is easily machined, sanded, glued and painted. So ABS scrap materials can be blended to produce new products and preserve high quality.

Size reduction of used ABS plastic single shaft shredder is the first step in whole ABS recycling process. single shaft Shredding ABS scrap to small pieces is a good choice. ABS single shaft  shredder or ABS granulator is your ideal size reduction machine for choices. PROSINO offers several ABS shredders and ABS granulators for your options. You can contact us for an ideal ABS shredder or we can tailor ABS shredder based on your specific requirements.

After single shaft shredding, separating different plastics or removing metals from shredded plastic is your next step. This separation process is often accomplished by using a water system with different velocity water streams on top of each other.

After different plastics are separated and analyzed, the recovered ABS can be blended with virgin ABS to produce a desirable recycled plastic.

Rotor

• Chevron rotor design

• Rotor knives manufactured from special heat treated DC53 steel. They can be rotated and used on four edges before replacement

• Long life fixed blades that can be adjusted to maintain cutter clearance

• Wear resistant coating. Optional for applications involving abrasive material such as fibre glass

Screen Basket

• Quick change screens for accurate particle size control (sizes 12-100mm)

• Safety limit switch fitted to screen access door to prevent machine operation whilst access door is open

• Cylinders access door opener mounted on V800-V1500 series for easy opening and access

• Star screen is available as an option for thin and/or flexible material such as film

Bearings

• Oversized, high quality spherical shaft bearings are isoloated from the cutting chamber to prevent product migrations through the grease seals

• Bearing housing integral machined to ensure the longevity of the bearings

• Rotor water cooling. Optional water cooling through the bearing housing to the rotor

Ram

• Segmented shredding chamber floor with brass guides

• Machined, one-piece segmented floor

• Advanced adjustable sealing system for the pushing unit

• Fines discharge chute to the collect the fines during shredding and to protect the  hydraulic power pack

Drives

• Electric drive motors configured for Star/Delta starting. Fluid coupling mounted on V1200 and V1500

• Heavy duty reduction gearbox mounted directed onto the rotor shaft

• Shock absorbing gearbox mountng arrangement to reduce stress on drive components

Hydraulic System

• Twin speed hydraulics, faster speed for backwards to maximise the shredding throughput

• Integrated oil/air cooler to maintain temperature for continuous operation

• Optional cover insulator for applications that may eject hazard particles such as wood shredding.

Control Panel

• Standalone electrical control panel with Siemens PLC control system and Schneider electrical components.

• Manual and automatic controls for rotor direction and hydraulic force feeding device

• Intelligent programming whereby the motor automatically reverses on overload and stops when the machine is idle
