Double Shaft Shredder for Plastic Recycling
Our double shaft shredder delivers high torque and efficient size reduction for bulky plastics, containers, films and mixed waste. Robust twin-shaft design ensures low-speed, high-torque shredding with low noise and long blade life, ideal for the first stage of plastic recycling lines.
Product Overview
The double shaft shredder is built for primary size reduction. Two counter-rotating shafts with hooked blades grab, tear and shred bulky items such as bottles, containers, drums, pipes and film rolls into uniform flakes. Applications include rigid plastic (HDPE, PP, PVC), film and bags, mixed waste, wood, light metal and e-waste pre-treatment.
Gangsu double shaft shredders are designed for 24/7 operation with easy maintenance, reversible blades and durable construction. Options include hydraulic drive, hopper design and integration with conveyors or downstream equipment.

FAQ
What is the difference between double shaft and single shaft shredders?
Double shaft shredders use two counter-rotating shafts for higher throughput on bulky items like bottles, drums and film rolls. Single shaft shredders offer more precise output control. Choose double shaft for primary reduction of large rigid plastics; single shaft for washing lines and extrusion.
What materials can the double shaft shredder process?
Our double shaft shredder handles rigid plastics (HDPE, PP, PVC), film and bags, mixed waste, wood, light metal and e-waste pre-treatment. Blade gap and screen size can be adjusted for your material and desired output.
Can it integrate with washing and pelletizing lines?
Yes. The double shaft shredder is often used as the first stage before washing, granulating or pelletizing. We can design the complete line and provide integration support.
