While crushing PET bottles and aluminum cans in recycling machines might seem like a rather primal task, it is far from that.
Designing a device to fulfill this task efficiently and without any stoppages requires a lot of sophistication.
Luckily, we know how to do it in a proper way.
Significant reduction of waste volume, easier transportation of raw materials for recycling, and permanent destruction of packaging to prevent its wrongful use. All of that is facilitated by a crusher, an essential part of any recycling machine. But what makes a crusher truly reliable…?
The Crusher – A Crucial Part of the Recycling Machine
Our device crushes packaging using two rotating shafts with teeth, the main driven one and a secondary one coupled to it. A special gear motor ensures correct rotation speed and force. All of this, combined with the third shaft above the other two, allows for smooth operation without jamming.
RR Crusher is designed for crushing PET plastic bottles with a capacity of up to 3 liters and aluminum cans of up to 1 liter and can fit packaging of various sizes. While it is primarily meant for use in the recycling machines, its compact design allows for easy implementation in various working environments, regardless of the application. Since it does not require complicated commissioning or integration, RR Crusher can operate as a stand-alone crushing module and it can also be successfully adapted to other waste processing systems and processes.
