Versatile PREVIERO PR 2800 shredder suitable for film and bottle washing lines

SOREMA plants, designed to wash and grind post-commercial, post-logistics and agricultural film with more than 80% stretch film, can reach an annual output of more than 10,000 tons. The high efficiency and performance can be credited to PREVIERO PR 2800 shredder, which can also be applied on HDPE bottle washing lines.

PREVIERO PR2800 shredder.

With the shredder’s cutting geometry, PREVIERO PR 2800 can separate metal components of spray bottles, which usually damage mill blades of shredder, with a productivity of up to 5000kg per hour.

How does it work?

The film washing line starts with a feeding conveyor belt and a shredder model PR 2800. The operator loads the film bales and removes the steel wire that binds the bales. Then the conveyor belt feeds the film into the shredder.

PR 2800 is equipped with a hydraulic motor with maximum torque from standstill to ensure minimal energy consumption required for film cutting and to reduce the risk of rotor damage caused by inert materials entering the cutting chamber.

In case of overload, the rotor stops and turns in the opposite direction without an inertial pulley.

Features of PREVIERO PR2800 shredder include:

• Horizontal hydraulic pusher,

• Motor with reversible rotation, installed power 200 kW,

• Two sizes of rotor: Ø 800 x 2000 mm and Ø 800 x 3000 mm,

• Rotor coated with wear-resistant material,

• Interchangeable blades, and

• Interchangeable grid.

Advantage of using this shredder are as follow:

• Minimum energy consumption: As the motor consumes energy only when the rotor is running, energy consumption can be reduced by up to 30%.

• Low rotational speed and cooled rotor ensure evenly sized pieces as required by detector manufacturers, with little fines and a smooth material that is easy to open and dose to the detectors.

• Prepares material ensuring loose, un-welded pieces with minimal wear of the shredder due to low rotational speed and wear-resistant coating.

• Easy access to the grid and cutting chamber for easy maintenance and quick blade changes.
