HEAVY INDUSTRIAL VOLUME REDUCTION

Single-shaft shredder for rubber bands

This single-shaft shredder for rubber bands is equipped with a special 3-claw rotor and delivers the aggressive grip and cutting power required to efficiently process tough materials such as rubber bands, TPE, and silicone waste.

Cost-effective solution for rubber bands and tough materials

While double-shaft shredders certainly have their applications, our specialized single-shaft model offers a powerful, low-maintenance, and cost-effective solution for reducing large, elastic materials.

Aggressive 3-claw rotor

The unique blades with three claws are designed to aggressively grip and pull in bulky, elastic materials, preventing backfiring and achieving a consistent high throughput capacity.

Hydraulic drive with high torque

Our specially designed hydraulic drive provides an optimal, constant torque that effortlessly navigates through harsh operating conditions without jamming and outperforms standard electric drives.

Designed for maximum durability

Equipped with D2 equivalent tool steel blades for high wear resistance, four times sealed bearings to prevent leakage, and an optimized shock absorption system to protect critical components.

How the Single-Axis Shredder for Rubber Bands Works

A simple, powerful, and effective process for significantly reducing the volume of challenging materials.

1

Material Feeding

Voluminous rubber or plastic materials are loaded into the hopper of the shredder.

2

Hydraulic pusher in action

A hydraulically supported pusher automatically presses the material against the rotating shaft of the shredder.

3

Chopping and cutting

The slowly rotating 3-prong blades grip the material and cut it against fixed blades within the chamber.

4

Output in sheet size

The material is repeatedly cut until it is small enough to fall through a heavy sieve at the bottom of the machine.

Applications of the rubber band shredder

This shredder excels where standard granulators fall short and is therefore indispensable in specific recycling and processing lines.

Materials

Auto and truck tires, industrial rubber waste, silicone plates and blocks, TPE (thermoplastic elastomers) purgings, EVA (ethyl vinyl acetate) sheets, and large plastic bales and blocks.

Typical Industries

Tyre recycling plants, automotive parts manufacturing, rubber and plastic processing companies, post-industrial waste processing, and shoe and sole production.

Frequently Asked Questions about the Rubber Band Shredder

Why choose this single-shaft shredder over a double-shaft model?
Our specialized single-shaft shredder offers a clear cost advantage and simpler maintenance for voluminous, elastic materials compared to double-shaft machines. The hydraulic pusher ensures continuous feeding of the material to the rotor, which can be challenging with some double-shaft designs for this type of material.
Why is the 3-claw rotor better for rubber and elastomeric plastics?
Standard rotors struggle to grip elastic or rubber-like materials, causing them to “bounce” over the blades. The aggressive claw design of the 3-claw configuration firmly grips these materials and pulls them into the cutting zone, significantly increasing efficiency and throughput.
What maintenance is generally required?
Regular maintenance includes checking the hydraulic oil level, lubricating the bearings, and inspecting the blades for wear. The cutting blades are reversible and can be rotated to use a new cutting edge before replacement is needed. The two-piece housing allows easy access to the rotor for maintenance.
