POPULAR QUESTIONS

Frequently Asked Questions

e-waste recycling
What is the purpose of shredders and granulators in recycling?

Shredders and granulators reduce the size of waste materials like plastics, metals, and paper, making them easier to sort, process, or repurpose. These machines are essential for transforming bulky materials into manageable and reusable pieces.

Shredders produce larger pieces and excel at bulky, thick, or tough material using high torque at low speed. Granulators produce smaller, uniform flake that is ready to feed back into manufacturing. Many plants use both in sequence.
Virtus equipment handles injection molding and extrusion scrap, runners, sprues, purgings, rejected parts, pipe, profiles, film, fiber, bottles, buckets, tubs, containers, drums, and IBCs, with tire and heavy duty models for tougher feedstock.
For bulky, thick, or tough material, start with a shredder. For uniform regrind ready to reprocess, use a granulator. To go from bulky scrap straight to clean regrind in one pass, the SG Series shredder granulator combination does both.
Match the model to your material type, part size, hourly volume, target output size, and floor space. Virtus spans beside the press granulators up to big volume shredders, so the line scales from a single press to a full plant. Our team can size it from a short application questionnaire.
The discharge screen perforation diameter is the main control. Smaller holes give finer, more uniform regrind at lower throughput. Larger holes raise throughput with coarser flake. The screen is matched to your downstream process.
Throughput depends on rotor diameter and width, drive power, screen size, knife setup, and the material’s hardness, shape, and bulk density. Share your material and target volume for an accurate recommendation.
Typical features include emergency stop controls, interlocked guards and hoppers, overload protection, and auto reverse to clear jams, all aimed at protecting the operator and the machine.
Reclaiming runners, sprues, and rejects on site as regrind reduces how much virgin resin you buy and how much scrap you pay to dispose of, which improves both cost and sustainability.
