S3-1000 Single Shaft Shredder, 1000 x 1000 mm Chamber, 75 kW

It is built for rigid plastic waste such as ABS, PC, PA and similar engineering plastics, in high volume. The 1800 x 1600 mm feed opening takes large pieces, and the 1000 x 1000 mm chamber gives the rotor a wide working face. Capacity is 600–800 kg/hr. If your stream is softer or more mixed, such as bags, film, drums or crates, a dual shaft shredder may suit better, and we will tell you so.

It presses material onto the rotor so the blades always have something to cut. The pusher self-regulates its feed pressure, which keeps the process steady under continuous loading. On the S3-1000 it has a 1000 mm stroke and a 100 mm cylinder, powered by a 5.5 kW oil pump motor at a maximum system pressure of 10 MPa.

The interchangeable 80 mm perforated screen sets the output particle size. Material stays in the chamber until it is small enough to pass, so changing the screen changes the output. For uniform regrind that goes back into moulding or extrusion, run the output through an RE series grinder as a second stage.

Both share an 1800 x 1600 mm feed opening, a 400 mm rotor at 60 rpm and the same 50 x 50 x 30 mm square-type DC53 blades. The S3-1000 has the larger 1000 x 1000 mm chamber against 800 x 800 mm, 42 rotary blades against 33, a 75 kW motor against 55 kW, and 600–800 kg/hr against 400–600 kg/hr. It also comes with an 80 mm screen fitted, which is optional on the S3-800. The range comparison sets all three S3 models side by side.

The control system is a Siemens PLC with Schneider contactors and relays, and a proximity switch interlock protects the machine when it is overloaded. The hydraulic pusher self-regulates its feed pressure as well. Keep metal objects out of the feed, because no shredder blade is meant to cut them.

The main drive is a 75 kW (102 HP) motor for 380 V, 50 Hz, 3-phase supply, with IP45 protection. The hydraulic pusher adds a 5.5 kW oil pump motor. Share your plant’s supply details when you enquire and our team will confirm the electrical specification with the quotation.

Every machine is quoted to the job. What moves the number is capacity, screen and blade configuration, the control panel and any conveyors or collection you add. Our guide to what drives machine cost walks through each of those. Send us your material and daily volume and we will size the machine and quote it, usually the same day.
