How to choose between single-shaft shredder and double-shaft shredder

In recent years, shredders have become an indispensable mechanical equipment in the recycling industry. Do you know how to choose the right single-shaft shredder and double-shaft shredder? When choosing a shredder, in addition to considering the model, working principle, and different crushed materials, you should also pay attention to whether the shredder's blade is suitable for production needs and whether the after-sales service is perfect.

The biggest difference between a single-shaft shredder and a double-shaft shredder is that a single-shaft shredder has only one knife roller, while a double-shaft shredder consists of two pairs of knife rollers meshing. It is precisely because of its large torque and high crushing efficiency that it is suitable for crushing materials with larger volume, thickness, and higher hardness, such as domestic garbage, industrial garbage, electronic waste, biomass, kitchen waste, medical waste, wood chips, garbage and other materials. Single-shaft shredders are more suitable for crushing materials with strong entanglement, so they are often used for paper mill waste cloth, leather scraps, PP plastic pipes, plastic films, woven bags, wires and cables, cans, aluminum chips and other materials.

Generally speaking, the double-shaft shredder is more applicable, so the double-shaft shredder will be used on a larger scale than the single-shaft shredder, with a wider range of applications and a larger usage. In terms of shredding particle size, the shredding force of the single-shaft shredder is smaller than that of the double-shaft shredder. It is tailored to the material and different shredding needs. In terms of price, under the same power, the price of the single-shaft shredder is slightly lower than that of the double-shaft shredder, and the tool use and maintenance costs are relatively low.

In short, different shredder equipment has its own advantages and disadvantages, and there is no good or bad. You can choose the appropriate shredder according to the materials, requirements, price and other factors to be shredded. The one that suits you is the best.
