What Is A Metal Shredder Used For?
Env-Guard metal shredders are designed to handle a wide range of metals and metal-containing products. Here are some of the materials that metal shredders can process:
Scrap steel: including auto parts, metal parts in home appliances (such as refrigerators, washing machines, etc.), steel containers (such as oil drums, gas cylinders), etc.
Non-ferrous metals: such as aluminium products (aluminium alloy doors and windows, aluminium foil, scrap aluminium alloys, etc.), copper products (scrap cables, copper pipes, etc.), lead products (lead battery shells, etc.)
Thin metals: such as iron sheets, cans, beer cans, metal scraps, electrical appliance shells, metal plates, etc.
Scrapped vehicles: including metal parts of scrap cars, motorcycles, bicycles and other vehicles
Construction waste: such as scrap steel bars, abandoned scaffolding, steel formwork, dilapidated metal doors and windows, building supports, etc.
The specific capabilities of a metal shredder can vary based on its design and the materials it’s intended to process. Some of our shredders are equipped with systems to remove non-metallic components, such as insulation from wiring or plastic parts from mixed metal products, allowing for more efficient recycling of the metal components. Contact our experts to discuss the machine details.
Work flow
How Does A Metal Shredder Plant Work?
A metal shredder operates by using a powerful motor to drive a shredding mechanism, which typically consists of a series of rotating blades or hammers that cut or crush the metal into smaller pieces. The basic operation of a metal shredder involves several key components and steps:
Feeding Mechanism: Metal waste is fed into the shredder through a conveyor belt or by manual loading, depending on the size of the shredder and the type of material being processed.
Shredding Chamber: The metal enters the shredding chamber where the actual shredding takes place. The chamber houses the shredding rotor equipped with cutting blades, hammers, or a combination of both.
Cutting Blades or Hammers: The rotor spins at high speeds, and the metal is impacted by the blades or hammers. In the case of rotary shear shredders, two counter-rotating shafts with interlocking cutting discs are used to slice the metal into smaller pieces. Hammermill shredders, on the other hand, use free-swinging hammers that pulverize the metal upon impact.
Screen or Grate: Below the rotor is a screen or grate with holes that determine the final size of the shredded material. Only pieces small enough to pass through the screen will exit the shredding chamber. Larger pieces remain in the chamber to be hit and cut again until they can pass through the screen.
Separation System: Some of our shredders have an integrated separation system that sorts the shredded metal by size or type using magnetic separation, eddy current separation, or other methods. This is especially important for mixed metal waste.
Discharge Conveyor: The shredded metal is then conveyed out of the shredder for further processing, storage, or transportation. This is typically done with a conveyor belt or by gravity, depending on the shredder’s design.
Control System: Our shredders are equipped with control systems that allow operators to adjust the speed of the rotor, the pressure applied to the material, and other parameters to optimize the shredding process for different types of metal waste.
Dust Collection and Noise Suppression: Shredding metal can produce a significant amount of dust and noise. Our shredders are equipped with dust collection systems to minimize airborne particles and noise suppression features to meet environmental and safety standards.
Cooling System: Due to the intense friction and impact forces involved in metal shredding, the equipment can generate a lot of heat. Shredders often have cooling systems to prevent overheating and to maintain operational efficiency.
Env-Guard metal shredders are robust and powerful machines designed to withstand the rigors of breaking down metal objects, which is a demanding process due to the toughness and variability of the materials being shredded. The specific design and features can vary depending on its intended use, the types of metals it is designed to process, and the required size of the output material.

Metal Shredding Techniques
Env-Guard metal shredding machine involves a variety of techniques and technologies designed to break down metal materials into smaller, more manageable pieces for recycling and waste management. Here are some of the primary methods used in metal shredding:
Hammer Mills
Hammer mills is designed to use high-speed rotating hammers to crush and break down materials. The hammers are attached to a rotor that spins inside a metal housing; the metal enters the mill and is hit by the hammers, causing it to shatter into smaller pieces.
The size of the output can be controlled by the size of the perforations in the screen or grate that the material must pass through to exit the machine. Hammer mills are effective for a wide range of materials, including ferrous and non-ferrous metals.
Vertical and Horizontal Shaft Shredders
- Vertical Shaft Shredders: These shredders have a vertical rotor with hammers or cutters. They are often used for size reduction of light scrap, such as aluminum or small electronic parts. The gravity assists in the downward flow of materials through the shredder.
- Horizontal Shaft Shredders: These shredders have a horizontal rotor and are more common in the industry. They can handle a wider variety of materials, including bulky ferrous metals. Horizontal shaft shredders can be further categorized into single-shaft, dual-shaft, and four-shaft shredders, depending on the number of rotors present.
Granulators
Granulators are high-speed, rotary cutters that finely chop the metal into granules. Unlike hammer mills, granulators are used for finer size reduction and are particularly effective for cables and wiring, small metal parts, and other non-ferrous materials. They work by cutting the material with knives on a high-speed spinning rotor against a fixed bed knife.
Scrap Metal Shredders
Scrap metal shredders are specifically designed to shred large volumes of metal scrap. They are robust and capable of processing a variety of metal products, including car bodies, white goods, and other structural metals.
Each metal shredding technique has its own set of advantages and is chosen based on the specific requirements of the material to be processed, the desired size of the output, and the subsequent processing steps. The choice of shredding technology also depends on factors such as energy consumption, maintenance requirements, and operational costs.
