WX-800S
WANXU
The WX-800S Single-Shaft Shredder for Waste Plastics serves as the heavy-duty core for demanding material recovery facilities. Engineered to process complex polymer streams into uniform, reusable granules, this machine operates with a distinct, steady hum indicative of its balanced kinetic energy. Driven by a precise 22-45 kW variable frequency motor, it consistently achieves a processing capacity of 6-12 tons/hour across various polymer grades. The massive single-shaft rotor grips and shears through dense lumps and tangled films without hesitation. By combining low-friction feeding dynamics with anti-adhesion internal surfaces, operators experience a continuous, uninterrupted flow of material. The thick steel chassis absorbs intense vibrations, anchoring the unit firmly to the concrete floor while transforming bulky waste into valuable secondary raw materials.
At the core of the WX-800S lies a massive 350mm diameter rotor, shielded by a tungsten carbide coating that resists the abrasive nature of contaminated polymers. Equipped with 16-24 staggered cutting blades, the mechanism delivers a precise scissor-like shearing action. Instead of tearing and melting the plastic, it slices cleanly through thick purgings and flexible films alike. This geometric precision prevents excessive friction, keeping the material cool and minimizing airborne dust, which ensures the consistent particle size distribution required for downstream processing.
Processing sticky or low-melting-point polymers often leads to chamber clogging. The shredding chamber resolves this with a specialized non-stick coating applied to its inner walls. As the blades slice through the material, optimized airflow channels actively draw away heat, ensuring the internal environment remains cool. Operators will notice the smooth, slick finish of the chamber walls, which actively repel molten residue, drastically reducing the hours typically spent scraping and cleaning the machine during shift changes.
Driven by an industrial-grade PLC system, this shredder acts as the intelligent brain of your recovery line. It continuously monitors motor load, instantly triggering an automatic reversal if an uncrushable object enters the chamber, thereby protecting the blades from catastrophic damage. Furthermore, its modular architecture allows direct communication with downstream optical sorters, washing tanks, and pelletizing extruders, adjusting feed rates dynamically based on real-time material composition for PET, PP, PE, and PVC.
Powering through dense plastic lumps requires relentless torque. The machine utilizes a heavy-duty gearbox paired with an efficient transmission drive, converting the motor's speed into sheer crushing force. This setup ensures stable, high-torque output that easily handles continuous, high-intensity shredding cycles while maintaining optimized energy consumption.
To prevent material bridging and ensure a continuous feed, the shredder incorporates an automated hydraulic pusher. This ram steadily forces bulky plastics—from rigid PVC pipes to bundled agricultural films—directly against the spinning rotor. The smooth, rhythmic thrust of the hydraulic arm guarantees a constant bite, maximizing throughput and eliminating manual intervention.
Achieving the exact flake size required by your buyers is effortless with the integrated quick-change screen system. Manufactured from high-strength, wear-resistant steel, these screens are available in multiple aperture sizes. They precisely dictate the final output dimensions, ensuring every discharged particle meets strict uniformity standards for subsequent washing or direct extrusion.
Routine upkeep is streamlined through a quick-opening service door and a reversible blade design. Maintenance crews can safely access the rotor chamber in minutes. The external bearing housings are positioned far from the crushing zone, completely sealed against dust and liquid ingress, which drastically extends their operational lifespan and minimizes unexpected downtime.
The WX-800S adapts to an extensive array of material profiles, proving its versatility across multiple industrial sectors. We provide documented real-world cases and operational videos demonstrating its capability to handle everything from thick-walled HDPE pipes to flexible PP jumbo bags and rigid PVC lumps, verifying its exceptional adaptability.
Post-Consumer Packaging: Efficiently breaks down mixed household containers, PET bottles, and detergent jugs into uniform flakes ready for hot washing.
Industrial & Manufacturing Scrap: Reclaims heavy production offcuts, injection molding runners, and defective molded parts, turning waste back into profitable resin.
Agricultural Films & Nets: Processes tough, soil-contaminated greenhouse films, irrigation tubing, and woven fertilizer sacks without wrapping around the rotor.
Construction & Demolition Plastics: Powers through thick PVC piping, PP plumbing fittings, and dense insulation boards with ease.
Automotive Components: Shreds bulky interior dashboard pieces, resilient bumpers, and tough plastic trim, preparing them for advanced compounding.
A: The WX-800S Single-Shaft Shredder efficiently processes a vast spectrum of thermoplastic polymers, including polyethylene (PE), polypropylene (PP), polyvinyl chloride (PVC), polyethylene terephthalate (PET), polystyrene (PS), and their blends. Whether you are feeding it brittle rigid plastics or tough, flexible films, the machine delivers consistent, reliable reduction.
A: Heat generation is controlled through a three-tier approach. First, the precision blade geometry slices rather than tears, minimizing friction. Second, the non-stick chamber coating prevents material drag. Finally, an active cooling system maintains the internal chamber temperature strictly below 60°C throughout continuous operation. The intelligent variable speed motor also drops RPMs during heavy surges to curb thermal buildup.
A: Operators can expect a standard output ranging from 5mm to 30mm, strictly dictated by the chosen screen configuration. The quick-change screen mechanism allows your floor staff to swap screens in under 30 minutes, swiftly transitioning from producing coarse fragments for friction washers to fine particles for direct extrusion lines.
A: A specialized internal drainage architecture channels moisture away from the cutting zone, mitigating odor and bacterial accumulation. While the heavy-duty blades easily tolerate minor contaminants like paper labels and residual adhesives, we recommend integrating the shredder with optional pre-washing modules when processing heavily soiled materials to protect the longevity of the cutting edges and ensure optimal granule purity.
