Double Shaft Shredders for Different Waste Applications

Ajay Industrial Shredders designs and manufactures application-specific Double Shaft Shredders for RDF, electronic waste, plastic waste, municipal solid waste, FRP and other industrial waste-processing requirements.

Five Application Areas

Each page sets out what the material is, why reduction is required, what the configuration depends on and which duty category the discussion usually starts from, subject to material review.

Selection

What Equipment Selection Depends On

The same waste name can describe two very different streams. These are the factors we work through before recommending a duty category and configuration.

Material composition

What the stream is actually made of, including the proportions that change with the source.

Input form

Loose, bagged, baled, bundled, palletised or delivered on a conveyor.

Piece size

The largest single item the machine will realistically see, not the average piece.

Moisture

Wet material behaves differently in the cutting zone and through discharge and downstream handling.

Contamination

The type, size and frequency of incidental contaminants, disclosed during selection.

Feeding method

Manual, hopper, grab, loader or conveyor, and how consistent the loading is through a shift.

Operating hours

Batch work, single shift or extended and continuous running.

Output requirement

The size the next stage or the offtaker needs, which usually sets the target.

Downstream process

Screening, separation, granulation, washing, baling or thermal treatment.

Mixed waste may contain incidental contaminants, but their type, size and frequency must be disclosed during selection. Oversized metal, stone and prohibited foreign objects should be removed before feeding unless explicitly approved for the agreed machine configuration.

Equipment

The Three Duty Categories

Not Sure Which Category Fits Your Material?

Send photographs of the waste and a short description of your process. That is usually enough for a first recommendation, subject to application review.
