3 Trends of Plastic Pipe Shredder and Recycling Machines

Plastic pipes have become an integral part of modern construction and manufacturing, but their disposal has long been a challenge. Landfills are overflowing with plastic waste, and the environmental impact of this waste is significant. That's where plastic pipe shredder and plastic pipe recycling machine come in. These machines shred large plastic pipes into smaller pieces, which can then be recycled in a closed-loop system.

As the demand for plastic pipe shredding and recycling machines continues to grow, there are several key trends that are expected to emerge in the coming years. These trends are driven by the need to increase capacity, flexibility, and the ability to process all plastic materials, and they are likely to have a significant impact on the industry.

3 Plastic Pipe Shredding and Recycling Machines Trends for 2023

Large capacity

One of the main trends in plastic pipe shredding and recycling machines is the increasing demand for large-capacity machines. As the use of plastic pipes continues to grow, so does the amount of waste plastic that needs to be processed. To meet this demand, manufacturers are developing larger and more powerful shredders that can handle larger volumes of material and operate at higher speeds. These machines are typically equipped with advanced features such as multiple cutting blades, high-torque motors, and automatic feed systems, which enable them to process more material in less time.

Flexibility

Another trend in the market for plastic pipe shredding and recycling machines is the growing demand for flexible machines that can handle different sizes of plastic pipes. As the need for plastic pipe recycling increases, it is important for these machines to be able to adapt to a wide range of pipe sizes in order to effectively process and recycle these materials. This trend is expected to continue as more and more plastic pipe manufacturers and recyclers look for solutions that can help them reduce waste and improve their environmental footprint.

Capable for all plastic materials

The trend toward machines that are capable of processing all plastic materials is also gaining momentum. In the past, plastic pipe shredding and recycling machines were typically designed to handle only one or two types of plastic, such as PVC or HDPE. However, as the market evolves and the demand for recycled plastic increases, manufacturers are developing machines that can handle a wider range of materials. This includes machines that can process mixed plastics, as well as those that can handle a variety of different colors and grades of plastic. These multi-purpose machines are designed to provide maximum efficiency and flexibility.

Super Features of Genox J1200 Shredder Designed for Large Pipes

The Large Plastic Pipe Shredder Genox J1200 is the largest machine in our plastic pipe shredding line. The combination of its ultra-long span cutting chamber and multi-rotor design allows this machine to be used for any plastic pipe recycling projects. This large shredder is designed with special counter knives, a segmented loading chamber floor with a brass guide, and long-life counter knives that help ensure that your material will maintain a high level of performance and efficiency at all times.

  • Ultra-long span cutting chamber

    An ultra-long volume cutting chamber that can break 6 meters long materials — this will allow you to shred long pieces of pipe or profile into shorter pieces faster than ever before!

  • Multi-rotor design

    The number of rotors can be specified according to the material size. This allows for optimal cutting efficiency and performance by minimizing power consumption.

  • High shear cutting

    High shear cutting between the rotor and counter knives, suitable for thin wall pipe shredding. This helps keep the blades sharp and efficient at all times, meaning less downtime and greater productivity

  • Adjusted counter knives

    Long-life counter knives can be adjusted to maintain cutter clearance, so you don't have to worry about replacing them as often as other types of shredders might require.

  • Segmented loading chamber floor with brass guides

    Segmented loading chamber floor with brass guides ensures that even small pieces will fit into the machine without issue or jamming up the system (which means less waste!).

  • A large feed with a hydraulic tipper

    A large feed with a hydraulic tipper for optimized material loading - ensures that all materials are fed evenly into the shredder without jamming or clogging up internal components.
