@anusuya k recycling it back to new projects or any needs like mold injection or 3D printing and etc.

Inside small percentage oil have possible for recycling.??? Oil can need washing ???

All i can say i Wow! I was so amazed! Beautiful machine, loved the sound of the shredded plastic.

@@sarathchandran5088 Plastic has to be perfectly cleaned, oils produce toxic smokes during melting and the new plastic part becomes contaminated.

well I am very very very very very impressed....LOL

you could skip the gear part since they could be bought at around 3-4$ ready from ebay china, but what you can buy are these theeths.

@@hyperhektor7733 do you have links?

@@crapjuice470 yes i recomment mod1 or bigger like mod 1,5 or mod 2 (google gears on wiki if you dont know what that means) ebay.com (international shipping) (show all results ) (from low to highest price) www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_trksid=p2334524.m570.l1313.TR9.TRC1.A0.H0.Xsteel+gear+mod.TRS1&_nkw=steel+gear+mod&_sacat=12576&LH_TitleDesc=0&LH_PrefLoc=0&_sop=15&_osacat=12576&_odkw=steel+gear&LH_BIN=1&LH_FS=1&_blrs=recall_filtering

Good appparat. But winner, IMHO, is: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/mJ6Vnsycq9iopWw.html

Look up precious plastics, they have all the blueprints for different machines

Yes, I'm sure it will shred wood, but I'm not going to try it because I don't want it full of sawdust and splinters! (It would probably contaminate the clean plastic I usually shred). It has no problem shredding hard plastic and soft metal, check out my 'will it shred' playlist: kzfaq.info/sun/PL7T9LOrvm0qJlVS9kMZRf9sp3FPf89Huw

I made it, it's just a microcontroller and 2 relays.

I agree with using something other than a hand to push down on parts! Definitely a very useful machine. But gotta have some safety measure in place!

It does have a safety interlock which means it will only run with the lid closed, but I included a key-locked override for my own use (this was useful for filming with the lid open).

They are actually quite small hobby machine tools and I've run out of space for a bandsaw!

Hey Vyran, I'm pretty new to recycling and looking to get a PET Shredder(for PET Bottles). You know anywhere i could purchase one?

the 'Precious Plastics bazaar' has similar designs and many forms of machine to shape the plastic into new products.

you could buy a used woodchopper, there are 2 types. The fast and loud ones with spinning blades (good for thin material) and the slow and more quieter ones which you need for more solid plastic (no foils) its the best option i found

It's about 25 rpm, but anything below 60 rpm works fine. Too fast and the teeth tend to knock things out of the way instead of grabbing them.

You would probably have to re-shred it multiple times and sieve it to get powder. I think you'd be better of with something like a high speed granulator.

Price?????

It's an optical switch/beam break sensor. You can find them in old printers.

It work work if you replaced the motor with a hand crank, but it would be very slow.

Thin aluminium certainly, check out my other video on shredding cans. I haven't tried thicker aluminium but I think it would handle 2-3mm

Frank U need 2 separate the different types plastics.

Hi, just for curiosity how much 100 pounds of shredded plastic worth for sale to a plastic company ? How much will they pay for it ?

Nothing, they have no way to trust you one what types of plastics are in the batch. Even the same types of water bottle have different blends of the same type of plastic. Its much cheaper to just buy virgin plastic pellets for big companies like that

@@emersoncoelho7187 LDPE from milk bottles - about $120 per metric ton. (1,000 KG). IF they will buy it. Plastic MUST be clean and contamination free - most molders would not TRUST an independent working from a garage.

@@jungojerry1658 "Sir, my plastics are separated, cleaned, and sanitized in an air-tight, laboratory with state of the air filtration systems. All our employees where static free suits, head to toe like you see at Intel Corp." ** shreds up plastic in his mom's basement with a $50 Walmart air filter sitting next to him wearing a polyester Adidas track suit.**

@@AndysMachines Hi Andy, I just visit your Patreon page and I don't see much information or details about the plans. Do you offer files for laser cutting the parts?, do you tell how you manage to use such a small motor with goods results?. How about the electronics?. Thank you

@@AndysMachines I forgot to ask: this machine can handle bottle caps?. What's the limit in terms of plastic thickness?.

@@luisvegano Hi Luis! You have to sign up to Patreon to view the files, yes there is a .dxf of the shredder cutters which can be used for laser cutting, these are the only parts that can really be laser cut. There are engineering blueprints of all the other parts of the shredding mechanism and there is also a calculator for choosing the correct motor and gear reduction, it's not so much about the power of the motor, but the torque produced by the motor/gearbox combo. I don't cover the electrics, this will vary depending on motor used and really if you plan to build something like this you need to be confident with wiring to do it safely. Yes, this shredder will easily handle bottle caps. I've shred plastic up to 3-4mm thick but the thicker it is the slower you need to feed it in to avoid jams, so really thick plastic will need cutting into strips and feeding in one at a time.

No, I just made the teeth big enough to withstand the forces, it's been going strong for years now and no visible wear.

Hii sir, contact me if your require this shredder .CONTACT : 9585506260.

Why is that? What benefit would adding shredded plastic to concrete accomplish?

Yes, in fact I did another video on that. It shreds aluminium cans very well, maybe even better than plastic.

Wo kann man diese interessante Shreddermaschine kaufen. Danke für die Info

Yes, single phase (I've answered your full question on Patreon)

Hii sir, contact me if your require this shredder .CONTACT : 9585506260.

Yes, they are 6mm.

Plz price

Yes, quite easily, acrylic is brittle and breaks easily.

it's about 60:1

Check out some of my other videos where I've demonstrated it shredding cans, wire and other things. I doubt it would work well with glass, I haven't even tried it. kzfaq.info/sun/PL7T9LOrvm0qJlVS9kMZRf9sp3FPf89Huw
