Shuliy Machinery’s scrap metal shredder is a heavy-duty, dual-shaft shredding machine engineered for high-load, large-volume scrap reduction. Our industrial shredders operate at a low speed with high torque, powered by a robust dual-motor drive system (e.g., the 800 model features dual 18.5kW motors). This design delivers immense shearing and tearing force to break down tough, bulky materials into smaller, more manageable pieces, making it the ideal choice for metal recycling facilities, waste management operations, and resource recovery centers.

What is a Scrap Metal Shredder?

Also known as a dual-shaft shredder, a scrap metal grinding machine works by using two counter-rotating shafts fitted with high-hardness alloy steel blades to shear, tear, and crush material. This low-speed, high-torque principle allows it to process highly durable or bulky materials without the jamming or damage associated with high-speed grinders. Furthermore, our metal shredders can be equipped with an optional screen to precisely control the output particle size, meeting specific requirements for subsequent sorting, melting, or processing.

Wide Range of Processable Materials

While named a scrap metal shredder, its application extends far beyond just metals. Thanks to its powerful and robust design, our equipment can efficiently process a diverse range of solid wastes:

  • All Types of Scrap Metal: End-of-Life Vehicle (ELV) shells, aluminum alloy profiles, scrap aluminum castings, engine blocks, color steel tiles, oil drums, steel barrels, and steel plates up to 15mm thick.
  • E-Waste and White Goods: Televisions, washing machines, refrigerator casings, computer hard drives, and more.
  • Industrial & Commercial Waste: Plastic pallets, wood pallets, large-diameter PE pipes, truck tires, car tires, and paper mill ropes.
  • Other Bulky Waste: Demolition waste, discarded furniture (mattresses, sofas), municipal solid waste, and garden waste.

Advantages and Key Features of Our Scrap Metal Shredders

  • Wide Range of Applications: It not only efficiently processes all types of scrap metal but is also suitable for shredding various other solid wastes, including industrial waste, scrap tires, plastic products, and bulky waste, making it a truly multi-purpose machine.
  • Durable Alloy Steel Blades:The blades are manufactured from specialized alloy tool steels such as 9CrSi, exhibiting exceptionally high hardness.
  • Customizable Blade Configuration: We offer customized blade configurations based on your material characteristics. This includes the blade material, thickness, number of teeth, and quantity, ensuring optimal shredding performance and a longer service life.
  • Tailored Solutions: We offer a wide range of models, from small to large-scale machines. Our technical team will recommend the most suitable scrap metal grinder based on your specific materials, desired throughput, and output size requirements.

Multiple Models and Power Options

To meet the diverse production scales and material requirements of our clients, we offer a wide range of shredder models, including the 400, 600, 800, 1000, 1200, 1250, 1600, and 1800 models. Each model varies in processing capacity, chamber size, motor power, and blade configuration. Additionally, for clients operating in areas with limited or unstable electricity, we offer a diesel engine power option, ensuring your scrap metal crusher can operate efficiently in any environment.

Related Metal Recycling Equipment

As a comprehensive manufacturer of metal recycling solutions, Shuliy Machinery also provides other key equipment to complete your metal processing line.

  • Metal Baler: Our hydraulic metal balers are designed to compress loose scrap—such as shredded material, metal shavings, and aluminum cans—into dense, uniform bales. This significantly reduces storage space and transportation costs.
  • Gantry Shear: For oversized and heavy-gauge scrap like steel beams, heavy plates, and car frames, our heavy-duty gantry shears deliver immense cutting force to pre-process the material into sizes suitable for a shredder or baler.

Scrap Metal Shredder Price

The price of a scrap metal shredder is not a fixed figure, as each machine is configured to meet specific operational needs. Key factors that influence the final price include the shredder model (from our 400 to 1800 series), the power configuration, the specific type and arrangement of the blades, and whether you require a standard electric motor or a diesel engine option. This approach ensures you invest in a machine that is perfectly tailored to your materials and throughput goals.
