Pre Shredder for Metal Recycling

December 02 2025

Xrido Group Metal Recycling Shredder: Pre-shredding Technology Enables Efficient Recycling

In the metal recycling industry chain, the pre-shredding stage is a crucial preliminary process that determines overall recycling efficiency. Pre-shredders, by initially crushing large, complex-shaped scrap metals, effectively reduce the difficulty and cost of subsequent sorting, packaging, and smelting processes. Xrido Group’s metal recycling shredders, with their advanced pre-shredding technology and reliable performance, have become the preferred equipment for metal recycling companies to achieve efficient operations, driving improvements in the recycling process.

The core of Xrido Group’s metal recycling shredder’s pre-shredding technology lies in “efficient crushing + morphology optimization.” Compared to ordinary pre-shredders, this equipment uses an intelligent variable frequency motor and a precision transmission system, which can automatically adjust the cutter shaft speed (5-15 r/min) and crushing gap according to the hardness and size of the metal material, achieving “flexible crushing”—which avoids the impact of hard metal materials on the equipment while ensuring that the crushed metal particles have a uniform shape, facilitating precise separation of impurities in subsequent magnetic separation, eddy current separation, and other processes, increasing the metal recovery rate to over 98%. In practical applications, the pre-shredding advantage of Xrido Group’s metal recycling shredder is particularly prominent. For example, when processing large pieces of metal such as scrap car shells and machine tool scraps, traditional pre-shredders often require multiple crushing operations to achieve the ideal particle size. Xrido Group’s equipment, however, uses a “one-step crushing and shaping” technology to directly crush large pieces of metal to the size required for subsequent processing, increasing processing efficiency by over 40%. Simultaneously, the equipment optimizes the blade tooth design for pre-shredding of thin metals (such as aluminum cans and metal bottle caps), preventing material from tangling around the blade shaft and ensuring continuous and stable production.

Furthermore, Xrido Group’s metal recycling shredder also boasts energy-saving, environmentally friendly, and intelligent advantages. The equipment uses an energy-saving motor and an optimized transmission structure, reducing energy consumption by 25% compared to the industry average. A built-in IoT monitoring system can monitor parameters such as blade shaft wear and operating temperature in real time, pushing maintenance suggestions through background algorithms to reduce downtime for repairs. Its modular design also supports flexible expansion according to the scale of enterprise recycling, adapting to different scenarios with daily processing capacities ranging from 50 tons to 500 tons, meeting the diverse needs of small and medium-sized enterprises and large recycling bases.

pre-shredding As the metal recycling industry increasingly demands higher efficiency and cost control, pre-shredders have become indispensable core equipment. Xrido Group’s metal recycling shredders, with their advanced pre-shredding technology, high processing capacity, and flexible adaptability, solve the front-end crushing challenges for metal recycling companies, helping them increase production capacity while reducing operating costs, thus becoming a crucial support for the high-quality development of the metal recycling industry.
