We define the standards for size reduction within the wood industry, and we want to help you turn your wood waste into profit. | Destroy Responsibly! (TM) — As an Official Recycler of NPE2024, WEIMA wants to empower companies to consider in-plant size reduction and recycling. The Recycling Zone behind West Hall will feature a WEIMA shredder and two granulators in operation. Attendees are invited to view the machinery inaction. WEIMA’s goal (in conjunction with Commercial Plastics Recycling, Inc., Conair, PLASTICS, and Freeman Co.) is to recycle 100% of the plastic scrap that is generated on the show floor at NPE2024. WEIMA’s robust line of shredders can handle plastic materials including pipe, purge, sprues/runners, film, fibers, bottles, crates/bins, nonwovens and more. Our single-shaft shredders are ideal for shredding scrap prior to a granulator or repelletizing line. Large hoppers allow for bulk feeding without the need to pre-cut materials. When consistent piece sizes are fed into a granulator, it regulates material flow while eliminating spikes in power. This helps to lower energy costs. WEIMA shredders can be customized to meet the demands of specific applications. With the range of equipment and a variety of rotor types, rotor geometries and cutting tools, we can handle such plastics as PE, PP, PVC, PS, PU and PET among others. The V-Rotor is designed for the shredding of hard plastics, while the F-Rotor is for woven and non-woven film and fiber materials. Other optional features include a lift-up door for easy maintenance, multiple knife configurations, custom hoppers, a variety of rotor widths, and more.

Cresswood Shredding Machinery

Cresswood manufactures American Made grinders, shredders, and material handling equipment to solve your wood waste and size reduction issues. For over 35 years, Cresswood has been the gold for standard horizontal-feed and hopper-feed grinders and shredders. Cresswood can turn your waste into a profitable value-added product, just ask us how! | Cresswood is a family-owned, Midwestern company with solid core values – we put the customer first and listen to what you need in a primary shredder. Partnering with a midwestern supplier gives you the peace of mind of quickly getting the parts, tooling, and service you need in a matter of days instead of weeks from an overseas supplier.If you are in the market for a quality low-RPM single shaft plastic shredder, Cresswood has solutions engineered to meet the particular needs of plastic recycling. Pre-shredding is a critical stage in all successful plastic recycling operations, and we know the choice of equipment must be durable, powerful, easy to maintain, and quickly adjustable to achieve smooth and uninterrupted material flow to downstream processing.Cresswood knows your choice of a primary shredder for plastics recycling must be safe and easy to clean, operate, and maintain; with engineered flexibility allowing the production of a range of uniform particle sizes from different plastic materials including:Recycled Plastic Lumber (RPL) – Creating an efficient zero-waste operation means having the ability to re-introduce long, linear scrap back into granular form. No touch zone grinding at the waste source is what you need to keep your operation running smoothly.Polyethylene (PET) – 1.5 billion pounds of used PET bottles and containers are recycled in the US every year, making it the most recycled plastic in America. It can be repurposed again and again for use in new PET products, making it a highly desired material for recyclers to process. Maintaining profitable operations means finding a dependable pre-shredder for your in-line processing with the lowest cost of ownership and best ROI.Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) – Thick walled PVC piping is absolutely brutal on your pre-shredder; you need the peace of mind only an extreme-duty machine can deliver, one designed to perform flawlessly for years under these demanding conditions.Polypropylene (PP) – Polypropylene is tough yet very flexible, with a relatively low melting point, factors that make pre-shredding this material a particular challenge. Only about 1% of this material is actually recycled, which means most of it heads directly to landfill after use. You need to partner with an equipment manufacturer who knows exactly how this material can be recycled and repurposed.Polystyrene (PS) – Maintaining consistent output without overheating the processed material is essential. If temperatures exceed 200-degrees F material will soften and at 230-degrees F will melt, essentially shutting down the primary shredder and exposing you to expensive downtime and repairs.High-Density Polypropylene (HDPE) – Massive purges present a difficult challenge as they are not suited for granulation and can quickly destroy inferior primary shredders. You need a robust machine designed to handle vertical loading of heavy purgings with the power, durability, and dependability to pre-shred this material for granulation.Low-Density Polypropylene (LDPE) – Softer, more flexible, and with a lower melting point than its cousin HDPE, LDPE makes an ideal material for thin bags and wraps. To shred this material, you need a cutter-head with counter-knives specially designed to prevent it from wrapping around and stopping the rotor.Manufacturing large HDPE plastic injection, blow and rotational molded parts requires a proven solution for shredding large, bulky rejects that cannot be put directly into your granulator.
