A Dual Shaft Shredder is a machine designed for the efficient reduction of various materials, such as metal scrap, plastics, rubber, and paper. It features two parallel shafts equipped with interlocking cutting blades or knives that rotate in opposite directions. This dual-shaft configuration enhances shredding performance and reduces the likelihood of material jams. Dual Shaft Shredders are versatile and capable of processing a wide range of materials, breaking them down into smaller, more manageable pieces suitable for recycling.
Suitable of Application for Dual Shaft Shredder
We deliver scrap shredders from 5hp to 500hp that offer world leading performance and reliability at industry leading low operating cost.
These are extremely robust versatile and high performance machine characterized by a low rotation speed which guarantee high cutting capacity even with tough materials.
With a unique geometry and disruptive automation solutions, our shredders can achieve a high output with low power consumption.
Our shredders are ideal to reduce the size of a wide range of waste types such as commercial and industrial waste, paper, plastics, cans, composite materials, electric cables, aluminum scrap, cardboard, biomass, wood, MSW waste, metal scrap, tyres, etc.
It is designed to manage the operating parameters through an integrated PLC and are equipped with a remote control.
A complete services is available to the scrap shredder operator, from turnkey design, manufacture and installation.
Top engineering quality made in INDIA keeps your machine durable and more resistant
The complete system including the components is designed to achieve maximum performance with the lowest possible energy requirements
Outstanding performance, you can expect maximum output per installed drive power, no wastage of power reserves and low operational requirements.
Overload protection with Auto Reverse and Automatic Shutdown
A Dual Shaft Shredder features two counter-rotating shafts with interlocking blades that shear, tear and compress waste material. This configuration delivers high torque at low speed, enabling efficient size reduction of tough materials while reducing jams and energy waste.
The Dual Shaft Shredder from Power Hydrotech is designed for a wide variety of waste streams including plastic scrap, rubber, metal scrap, paper, cardboard, composite materials, tyres and MSW (municipal solid waste).
Key benefits include:
Low-speed, high-torque design leading to less dust, less noise, and lower power consumption.
Robust construction and heavy-duty components result in long service life and low maintenance costs.
Versatility in material handling – from bulky waste to mixed streams – making it suitable for large-scale recycling and processing setups.
When selecting a model, consider:
The feed-material size, type and volume (hard vs soft, mixed vs uniform).
Desired output size or particle size after shredding (which depends on blade configuration).
Motor power, chamber size and throughput capacity (Power Hydrotech offers models from 5 hp up to 500 hp).
Whether additional features like automatic reverse, PLC control, and remote monitoring are required.
Important features include:
Auto-reverse or overload protection to prevent jams and protect motors.
Wear-resistant blades and liner plates, heavy-duty bearings, and accessible maintenance points for faster servicing.
Control panel with PLC/automation for consistent safe operation and monitoring.
