From Waste to Fuel: Waste Textile Shredding Line

Waste fabrics, textiles, clothing, leather trimmings and shoe offcuts contain certain organic and fiber-based substances with high calorific value. Therefore, these wastes can be reused as fuel raw materials by means of centralized treatment after shredding of waste cloth. Usually, the process of handling these waste textiles includes sorting, loading, shredding, secondary shredding, uniform fabric in silo, compression molding and preparation of discharges. Among them, the classification is to separate different types of waste textiles for subsequent processing; the loading is to feed the classified waste textiles into the production line; the shredding is to cut the waste textiles into smaller fragments so as to better carry out subsequent processing; the secondary shredding is to further reduce the size of the fragments so as to make them easier to be compressed and molded; the bin uniform cloth is to ensure that the fragments are uniformly distributed in the compression molding process so as to ensure the

Optimization of Single-Shaft Shredder for Processing Flexible Materials

The efficient processing of flexible materials holds significant importance in various industries such as packaging, recycling, and manufacturing. Single-shaft shredders have emerged as a reliable solution for effectively reducing the size of these materials. This article aims to explore the optimization techniques of a single-shaft shredder for handling flexible materials, addressing their unique challenges and proposing strategies for improved performance.Understanding Flexible MaterialsFlexible materials encompass a wide range of products, including plastic films, foils, textiles, and rubber products. Their distinctive properties, such as low density, pliability, and elongation, pose challenges during shredding. It is crucial to determine the material’s specific attributes, including thickness, stretchability, and composition, to optimize shredding parameters. Shredder Design OptimizationCutting Rotor Design:Careful consideration must be given to the selection and configuration of cutting rotors. The

Textile Waste Processing

Waste, trimmings and discarded textiles, clothing and leather from the textile and garment industry are solid wastes that are as difficult to degrade as plastics. Simple piles or landfills not only take up space but also pollute the environment and cause waste. Using proven systems for shredding these materials, these wastes can be recycled for fibre or processed into boiler fuel for power/heat generation.GEP ECOTECH has a proven solution for shredding waste textiles, using industrial grade twin shaft shredders that efficiently shred objects into small pieces for easy subsequent processing, even heavy carpets are easily handled with shredders using GEP ECOTECH technology.For most small applications, the use of one GEP ECOTECH shredder + loading belt is sufficient, simple and reliable.GEP ECOTECH offers a range of scrap textile shredding machines from small to very large sizes, with capacities ranging from a few tens of kilograms per hour to over ten tons per hour.
