Steel Drum Shredder

Steel drum shredder allows to downsize a whole metallic drum with covers and liners. When a metal drum reaches its service time, it costs a fortune to store and transport it in bulk.

Steel Drum Shredder

Luckily, Wiscon Envirotech’s shredders (e.g. two shaft shredders and four shaft shredders) come in handy in recycling steel drums. A steel drum shredder can load a steel drum at a time, shred within 20 seconds, and produce 40mm-wide metal stripes. An optional veritcal pusher can lock and feed a steel drum against the crushing chamber.

Metal Barrel Shredder

A four shaft shredder can perform the same but the final materials are slightly different. This shredder can strictly control the output size, producing 40mm by 40mm particles. Just like a paper shredder, the tooth of disk knife can grap and fix a steel drum.. The low-speed and high-torque rotors shear steel drum into pieces. This simple working princinple ensures a smooth size reduction from waste to value.
