RECYCLING OF MARITIME WASTE
Single-shaft Shredder for Fishing Nets and Ropes
Our industrial single-shaft shredder is specially designed for the challenging task of recycling fishing nets, ropes, and other fibrous waste. Thanks to a unique anti-entanglement rotor, material is efficiently reduced without clogging, which is essential for continuous and reliable processing. Transform problematic waste into a valuable, reusable raw material and increase your operational efficiency.
Advantages at a Glance
Avoid costly production stops thanks to the anti-entanglement design that eliminates material clogging.
Process large volumes of fishing nets and ropes quickly and effectively, leading to higher throughput capacity.
The robust construction and smart design reduce wear and tear and the need for frequent maintenance.
Key Features of the Fishing Net Shredder
The core of this machine. The special V-shaped rotor and the unique placement of the knives prevent long, fibrous materials such as nets and ropes from wrapping around the shaft, minimizing downtime.
The powerful, slow-rotating drive delivers a constant high torque, allowing the shredder to easily cut through dense bundles of nylon, PP/PE nets, and thick ropes.
The PLC system detects overloads and automatically activates a reverse function to reposition the material. This protects the machine and ensures smooth, uninterrupted operation.
Built for the toughest conditions. The robust frame and high-quality components guarantee a long service life and minimal wear, even when processing abrasive materials such as sand-contaminated nets.
The advanced drive technology not only provides high torque but also optimal energy consumption, resulting in lower operational costs.
Designed with the user in mind. Easy access to the cutting chamber and replaceable knives make maintenance fast and safe. Equipped with emergency stops and safety sensors compliant with CE regulations.
The Process: From Net to Raw Material
Our shredder is the heart of an efficient recycling process. Reducing fishing nets and ropes is the critical first step to make them suitable for further processing.
Large, compressed bales of fishing nets or loose ropes are loaded into the shredder's spacious hopper via a conveyor belt or grapple.
The hydraulic pusher presses the material against the slowly rotating, torque-capable rotor. The specially designed knives grip the material and cut it effectively without entanglement.
The material is reduced to the desired fraction size, determined by the replaceable screen deck. The output is a uniform, loose material, perfect for the next step in the recycling process (washing, granulating).

Wide Application Opportunities
This shredder is the first step in the circular economy for maritime and agricultural waste, preparing materials for granulation and reuse.
Recycling of Fishing Nets
Reduces various types of fishing nets (trawl nets, gillnets, etc.) made of materials like nylon, HDPE, and PP to a manageable size for further processing.
Processing of Rope and Ropes
Easily cuts through thick, multi-strand ropes and lines used in the maritime, fishing, and offshore industries.
Agricultural Waste
Ideal for processing agricultural nets, shade cloths, bale presses, and other fibrous agricultural plastic waste.
Textile and Carpet Recycling
Processes large rolls of fabric, carpet scraps, and other fibrous materials that conventional shredders clog.
Why Our Anti-Entanglement Shredder?
Standard shredders fail when processing fishing nets due to entanglement, leading to costly downtime and maintenance. Our machine is designed from the ground up with a specialized anti-entanglement rotor that eliminates this problem. By investing in this technology, you choose a reliable, efficient, and continuous solution specifically built to turn one of the world's most problematic waste streams into a valuable raw material.
