Metal shredders and metal crushers are the core equipment for the processing and recycling of two kinds of scrap metal materials, and they are widely used in practice. Some people say that metal shredders and metal crushers are both used to crush and process scrap metal products. If you choose them casually, they should be the same equipment with different appearances. If you think so, you are wrong, there are still many differences between the two. How to choose and distinguish between metal shredders and metal crushers? As a manufacturer, TONGLI SHREDDER compares the differences between the two devices in terms of working principle, performance characteristics, and equipment usage.

1. Differences in working principles

Metal Shredder: The material enters the inside of the shredding box through the feeding system, and the shredding blade is carried on the box, and the material is shredded into 5cm-10cm metal by the comprehensive action of the shredding blade, such as tearing, extrusion, and shearing. Flakes, discharged from the lower part of the box.

Metal Crusher: Using the basic principle of hammering, driven by a high-speed and high-torque motor, the hammers on the rotor of the main engine hit the objects to be crushed in the cavity in turn, and pass through the space formed between the liner and the hammer. , to complete the crushing process together, and the crushed materials form metal particles smaller than 5mm.

Contrast: One is slow and the other is fast; one is shearing and shredding, the other is beating and crushing; one is flaky and the other is granule.

2. Differences in performance characteristics

Metal Shredder: The equipment operates at low speed and has a wide feeding port, so it is suitable for shredding various large volumes, mixed sizes, and complete vehicles. The shredding efficiency is high through the grasping of the knives. The knives use high-strength alloy knives and are easy to operate. Safe, low noise, no dust pollution.

Metal Crusher: The characteristics of high-speed impact and crushing enable it to fully separate rust, sundries, dust, etc. in the waste, and the purity is high after crushing and sorting. Due to the uniform size and variety of materials, the work efficiency is higher than that of the machine.

Contrast: The shredder operates at low speed and is suitable for coarse crushing of mixed materials; the metal crusher is suitable for fine crushing of similar materials.

3. The difference in usage

Both metal shredders and metal shredders are waste resource processing and recycling equipment, which can be used alone or in combination. That is, the material is first processed by the metal shredder, and then enters the metal crusher for crushing. This combination can better improve efficiency and create more profit margins for users.

Metal shredders and metal crushers are the core sales equipment of TONGLI SHREDDER, 38 years of factory quality assurance, equipment price is affordable, can bring materials on-site test machine, provide door-to-door installation services, welcome customers to inquire.
