Compact plastic waste shredder for routine size reduction

Is your material suitable?

Feed material What to check before selecting the machine
Runners, sprues and small moulded rejects Polymer grade, wall thickness, toughness and maximum piece size
Sheet, profile and tube offcuts Longest dimensions, section shape and feeding behaviour
Small rigid containers and packaging parts Material formulation, shape, residues and contamination
Mixed, bulky or demanding waste Review a different cutting arrangement or the FY-SS02 project platform before choosing

Provide the actual material rather than relying on a product-family label. Moisture, embedded metal and other contamination must be disclosed. The reference datasheet also mentions non-plastic materials; these need separate assessment and are not a blanket suitability claim for this configuration.

How It Works

A straightforward plastic size-reduction process

Prepare the material

Confirm that the plastic type and piece size are suitable for the selected machine.

Feed the hopper

Load material according to the confirmed feeding method and operating guidance.

Reduce the material

The cutting chamber pulls in and breaks suitable plastic waste into smaller pieces.

Product Selection

Standard plastic shredder or heavy-duty shaft shredder?

The material size, toughness, contamination, feed condition, and target capacity determine the correct machine family.

For bulky, mixed or more demanding feed, compare the FY-SS02 heavy-duty platform. A larger machine is also application-specific; its capacity must be confirmed. Use the industrial shredder selection guide to compare material size, output, throughput, motor and cutter requirements.

Choose Standard

Routine and manageable plastic scrap

Start here for suitable offcuts, runners, trims, smaller rejected parts, and regular production waste that can be fed into a compact system.

Choose Heavy-Duty

Bulky, tough, mixed, or demanding waste

Review a heavy-duty shaft shredder when materials are larger, tougher, mixed, contaminated, or require substantially stronger low-speed processing.

Material & Equipment View

Review the machine and the expected material result

Actual output depends on the plastic, feed condition, cutting configuration, and operating method. A material review or sample test is recommended before final selection.

Applications

Typical routine plastic waste streams

Injection Molding Scrap

Review suitable runners, sprues, trims, and smaller rejected molded parts.

Plastic Offcuts

Reduce suitable sheet, profile, tube, or fabrication offcuts after material review.

Small Containers & Parts

Process suitable thin-walled containers, housings, and production rejects.

Packaging Plastics

Evaluate clean and manageable rigid packaging waste for localized reduction.

Assembly & Trimming Waste

Reduce suitable plastic trimming, edge waste, and regular line-side scrap.

In-Plant Recycling

Support internal collection and preparation for reuse or downstream processing.

Frequently Asked Questions

Planning your plastic shredding project

What information is needed for shredder selection?

Please provide the plastic type, normal and maximum piece size, thickness, shape, contamination, hourly or daily volume, feeding method, required output, and destination power supply. Photos, video, or a test sample are valuable.

Can one machine process different plastic materials?

Possibly, but each material should be reviewed. Hardness, toughness, flexibility, wall thickness, additives, and contamination can change feeding behavior, output, wear, and capacity.

What output size will the machine produce?

Output depends on the material and cutting configuration. The required downstream use should be explained so FYXFER can recommend an appropriate arrangement and confirm expectations.

Can wet or contaminated plastic be shredded?

Moisture, dirt, metal, and other contamination must be disclosed during selection. Some materials may require sorting, cleaning, metal removal, or a different machine format before shredding.

Can a conveyor or collection system be added?

Yes. Feeding, discharge, collection, bagging, and transfer options can be reviewed according to the available space and workflow.

What support is available for overseas projects?

Project support can include operating documentation, remote technical assistance, troubleshooting coordination, and spare-parts guidance. The applicable scope should be confirmed for each order.

Selection Guide

Is FY-SS01-300 right for your application?

Start here for suitable routine plastic scrap, runners, trims and smaller rejected parts.

01

Check the load or material

Send representative plastic samples or photos with maximum piece size, wall thickness and contamination.

02

Define your process

Define the required output size, accepted hourly output and downstream process.

03

Confirm the configuration

Confirm feeding, collection, working space and destination power for the FY-SS01-300 configuration.

Use this checklist for an initial review. Final machine limits, options and acceptance criteria are confirmed in the project quotation.

Prepare a useful selection enquiry

Send the polymer or material grade, photographs, normal and maximum piece dimensions, wall thickness and contamination. Add the amount to process per hour or shift, feeding method, required output condition, downstream process and destination power supply. Explain how the result will be accepted, including any sample-test requirement.

Need a different FY-SS01 size or a two-stage model?

Compare FY-SS01-180 / 300 / 400 / 500 and FY-SS01-300-2S / 400-2S / 500-2S using verified configuration data.

Capacity and output are confirmed from your actual material.

FY-SS01-300: Prepare a Material Trial That Can Be Compared

The published compact reference includes a 3 kW motor and a 500 × 500 × 300 mm hopper. These dimensions and motor power do not establish throughput, particle size or suitability for every plastic.

Record the input material

Record the trial conditions and result together

Request identification of the tested machine, cutter configuration, feed preparation and operating settings. Record input mass, elapsed processing time including stops, output-size observations, rejected material and any refeeding. Keep photographs or video tied to that record. A result for a different polymer or feed geometry is not proof of your production rate.

Choose the next comparison

For a compact configuration comparison, review the seven-model FY-SS01 family. For bulky or demanding feed, review the FY-SS02 project platform. Use the material selection guide and send the sample brief to FYXFER before confirming a machine.
