Single-Shaft Shredder — Applications
The P series single-shaft shredder is designed to handle a wide variety of post-industrial and post-consumer waste streams. Each application can be matched with a customized knife and screen configuration to deliver the right particle size for your downstream process:
  • Plastic — Plastic lump, plastic pipe, plastic sheet, PE film, PP woven bag, PET bottle, raffia, and twine
  • Wood — Wood pallet, wooden box, and timber residues
  • Paper Product — Waste paper and confidential documents
  • Scrap Metal — Circuit board, aluminum casing, copper, radiator, wire, cable, and WEEE
  • Mixed Waste — MSW (Municipal Solid Waste) and RDF (Refuse-Derived Fuel) production
For materials not listed, our engineering team can evaluate your feedstock and recommend a tailored configuration.
01 — Product profile
P Series Single-Shaft Shredder — Compact, Reliable, Versatile
The P series single-shaft shredder is purpose-built for small-to-medium material size reduction and waste recycling across a wide range of industries. With a low-speed, high-torque cutting action, it processes bulky feedstocks into uniform particle size — ready for downstream sorting, washing, or compounding.
Typical Applications
The P series handles a broad spectrum of materials, including plastic lumps and finished products, wood offcuts, paper waste, cardboard, and similar fibrous or rigid streams. It is widely deployed in plastics recycling plants, packaging manufacturers, paper mills, wood-product factories, and municipal solid-waste preprocessing lines.
Core Advantages
  • Low speed, high torque — efficient shearing with minimal heat generation, protecting heat-sensitive plastics and preventing material degradation.
  • Compact structure — small footprint fits into space-constrained workshops, mezzanines, or existing production lines without major civil works.
  • Harsh-environment reliability — robust sealing and heavy-duty bearings keep the machine running smoothly in dusty, humid, or high-temperature conditions.
  • Uniform output — the integrated screen enforces a consistent particle size, eliminating the need for secondary screening.
Customized to Your Material
Polytec's screen and knife configurations can be selected based on material characteristics, target particle size, and throughput requirements. Whether you're processing soft films, rigid plastics, or fibrous paper, the cutting system is tailored to deliver stable, repeatable results with low wear.
02 — Application
Processable Materials
The P series single-shaft shredder handles a wide range of post-industrial and post-consumer waste streams, including:
  • Plastics — plastic lumps, pipes, sheets, PE film, PP woven bags, PET bottles
  • Paper & wood — industrial waste paper, wood pallets, and similar packaging waste
  • Metals & electronics — circuit boards, aluminum scrap, copper scrap, wires, and cables
For materials not listed above, our engineering team can run a shredding test on your actual feedstock to confirm suitability and recommend the best knife and screen configuration.

Built to Last, Designed to Service Quickly
Every component of the P series single-shaft shredder is selected for durability, easy maintenance, and low lifetime operating cost. Here's what that means in practice:
Premium Cutting Tools
  • DC53 rotor knives paired with D2 counter knives — DC53 delivers exceptional wear resistance and toughness, while D2 provides high hardness and edge retention. The combination keeps cuts clean and extends service intervals significantly.
Optional Hydraulic Pusher Ram
  • For hollow containers, bulky frames, and other oversized or low-density materials, an add-on pusher ram forces feed into the cutting chamber, preventing bridging and maintaining steady throughput where gravity feeding would stall.
Smart Automation & Protection
  • Auto-reverse system — the moment the motor detects overload or material jam, the rotor automatically reverses to clear the obstruction, protecting the drive train and keeping uptime intact.
  • World-class electricals — main components are sourced from trusted brands such as Siemens and Schneider, ensuring long-term reliability and easy access to service parts worldwide.
Fast Maintenance, Lower Lifetime Cost
  • Top access to rotor and screen — quick-change design slashes routine service time.
  • Rotor knives usable on 2 sides — flip the blade before replacement, effectively doubling tool life and cutting consumable cost.
  • Interchangeable screens — several mesh sizes are available, letting you adjust output particle size to match downstream requirements.
  • Replaceable and adjustable guide rail / pusher — keeps the crushing chamber fully sealed and the feed motion smooth, even after years of heavy use.
