Transform Your Waste Stream with a Powerful Waste Wood Pallet Shredder
A Waste Wood Pallet Shredder is the essential first step in transforming discarded shipping pallets into valuable recycled material. This robust industrial machine is specifically engineered to handle the tough nails, varied wood types, and bulky structure of waste pallets. Our high-capacity model features a massive 1300mm x 850mm feed opening, allowing entire or broken pallets to be fed with ease. Powered by dual 37KW motors, this industrial wood shredder delivers the immense torque needed to crush and shear wood pallets into consistent, manageable chips at a rate of up to 3 tons per hour.
Core Specifications: Built for Durability and Power
Understanding the specs shows why this pallet recycling machine excels. Let’s break down the key components that ensure reliable, continuous operation:
-
Cutting System: The heart of this two-shaft shredder features two solid 230mm diameter shafts made from 40Cr alloy steel. Each shaft holds 26 durable blades. These blades, with a diameter of 450mm and a thickness of 50mm, are crafted from 9CrSi material, known for exceptional wear resistance and edge retention.
-
Drive & Bearings: Power is transmitted through two high-quality reducers to the cutter shafts. The shafts rotate on heavy-duty bush shaft shelf aligning ball bearings (four total), ensuring smooth rotation under extreme load and minimizing maintenance.
-
Intelligent Control: The electrical system uses a famous Chinese brand controller with a Mitsubishi PLC. Crucially, it includes an automatic forward and reverse device triggered by current overload. This smart feature protects the machine from jams by reversing the shafts to clear blockages, then resuming normal operation.
-
Optional Conveyor: For optimal workflow, an optional 8-meter long by 1.3-meter wide conveyor belt (with a 4KW motor) can be integrated. This creates a complete system for feeding waste wood pallets directly into the shredder machine safely and efficiently.
Key Benefits: Why You Need This Shredder for Your Site
Investing in a dedicated Waste Wood Pallet Shredder solves multiple problems at once. First, it dramatically reduces disposal volume and costs. By shredding pallets, you can reduce their bulk by up to 80%, leading to fewer waste hauls. Furthermore, it creates a valuable product. The output uniform wood chips can be sold as biomass fuel, garden mulch, or raw material for particleboard, turning a cost center into a potential revenue stream.
Moreover, this machine promotes safety and efficiency. A centralized pallet disposal system with a conveyor is much safer than manual breaking with crowbars and hammers. It also clears your site faster, improving logistics and space utilization. According to the EPA’s guide on sustainable materials management, size reduction through shredding is a fundamental process for effective wood recycling.
Customization and Machine Selection for Your Needs
We understand that every waste stream is different. Therefore, this two shaft shredder machine is designed with adjustability in mind. Key parts can be modified according to your specific requirements to improve the machine’s ability. For instance, blade configuration, screen sizes for output control, or feed hopper modifications can be tailored.
To select the right shredder machine, please send us your waste volume and material details. Key factors include:
-
Average daily/weekly volume of waste wood pallets.
-
Types of wood and the presence of contaminants (e.g., plastic bands, excess metal).
-
Desired end-use for the shredded output (chip size matters).
-
Available space and preferred feeding method (manual, conveyor, forklift).
This information allows us to recommend the perfect configuration, ensuring you get a machine that meets your capacity and output goals without over-investing.
Applications and Ideal Users
This heavy-duty pallet shredder is ideal for a wide range of businesses looking to manage wood waste responsibly and profitably:
-
Distribution Centers & Warehouses: Generate a steady stream of broken pallets.
-
Manufacturing Facilities: Use pallets for raw material shipping and need to dispose of them.
-
Pallet Repair & Recycling Companies: Need to process unsalvageable pallet parts.
-
Waste Management & Recycling Facilities: Accept wood waste from commercial clients.
-
Biomass Fuel Producers: Require consistent, clean wood chips for energy production.
For all these users, the Waste Wood Pallet Shredder is the key piece of equipment that starts the recycling process, giving old wood a new life and keeping it out of landfills.
