Discarded clothing can be recovered as material or energy, industrial shredder is a necessary machine to improve recycling efficiency. GEP ECOTECH offers single-shaft, double-shaft and four-shaft shredders capable of shredding waste clothes to specified sizes.
The GSS series single shaft shredder is the perfect machine for the fine shredding sector: thanks to the trapezoidal blades and the reduced rotation speed, it is able to guarantee excellent performance in terms of energy consumption, production and maintenance. The structure of the machine is made up of very thick electro-welded sheets, such as to guarantee sturdiness and reliability over time. The shredding takes place through the cutting action of the rotating blades on the fixed blades which are mounted on an adjustable crosspiece. A pusher also guarantees the grinding of bulky items, avoiding floating phenomena. The motorization varies according to the requirements of the material to be treated. It is given by a hydraulic motor with relative control unit, keyed to a planetary reduction gear. A screening grid is installed under the rotor. Unlike the shredders already on the market, this machine allows to obtain a ground product with very homogeneous dimensions and defined according to the size of the
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.
