RECYCLING EQUIPMENT AND THE HISTORY OF SHREDDERS

THERE ARE MANY MACHINES THAT HAVE EVOLVED OVER THE LAST 50 YEARS OR MORE THAT ARE NOW USED ON A REGULAR BASIS TO PROCESS WASTE MATERIALS FOR RECYCLING

THERE IS NO DOUBT THAT SOME OF THESE MACHINES HAVE BECOME MAJOR FORCES IN THIS PROCESSING INDUSTRY

THE SINGLE ROTOR, HORIZONTAL SHAFT HAMMERMILL MAY BE ONE OF THE FIRST OF THE MAJOR CATEGORIES TO REACH THIS STATUS

THE DOUBLE ROTOR, HORIZONTAL SHAFT HAMMERMILL

REMEMBER THAT THE HAMMERMILL HAS DIFFERENT ROTOR CONFIGURATIONS SUCH AS HAMMERS, FLAILS, RINGS, CHAINS AND PADDLES THAT ARE USED IN THE PROCESS OF SHREDDING OR HAMMERING MATERIALS DOWN IN SIZE

THE SINGLE ROTOR GRANULATOR MAY BE CONSIDERED THE SECOND MAJOR CATEGORY IN THIS FIELD KNOWN AS THE RODDY DESIGH

THEN THE SINGLE ROTOR VERTICAL SHAFT HAMMERMILL AS A THIRD MAJOR CATEGORY KNOWN AS THE EIDAL DESIGN

THE DOUBLE ROTOR VERTICAL SHAFT HAMMERMILL KNOWN AS THE EIDAL DRAVO DESIGN

THE DUAL SHAFT SHEAR TYPE SHREDDER IS PROBABLY THE FOURTH MAJOR MACHINE CATEGORY IN THIS FIELD OF MACHINES USED IN RECYCLING OF WASTE MATERIALS COMMONLY KNOWN AS THE SATURN DESIGN

THE SINGLE SHAFT SHEAR TYPE SHREDDER COMMONLY KNOWN AS THE BREWER DESIGN

THEN IN NO SPECIFIC ORDER, THE FOLLOWING MACHINES EVOLVED INTO MAJOR CATEGORIES

THE SINGLE SHAFT ROTARY GRINDER OR THE SINGLE SHAFT ROTARY SHREDDER ORIGINS UNKNOWN

THE DUAL SHAFT ROTARY GRINDER OR THE DUAL SHAFT ROTARY GRINDER ORIGINS UNKNOWN

REMEMBER AGAIN THAT THE USE OF THE WORD SHREDDER, OR GRINDER, IS MORE OFTEN THE NOT USED IN A MACHINE CATEGORY DESCRIBING THE SAME MACHINE

THAT BEING SAID. THE FOLLOWING CATEGORIES OF RECYCLING EQUIPMENT CONTINUES....

THERE ARE MORE MACHINES IN THIS FIELD TODAY THAN THERE EVER WAS SINCE THE RECYCLING REVOLUTION OF THE 1960'S AND 1970'S

THE ONE SHAFT DRUM SHREDDER IS ANOTHER CATEGORY, SIMILAR TO THE SINGLE SHAFT ROTARY GRINDER THAT HAS EVOLVED INTO SEVERAL DESIGNS BUT ANY MACHINE WITH ONE SHAFT COULD BE CLASSIFIED AS A ONE SHAFT SHREDDER BUT SOMETIMES THERE IS A MAJOR DISTINCTION IN THE DESIGNS OF THE ROTORS IN THESE MACHINE MORE SPECIFIC TO THEIR CUTTER DESIGN NORMALLY LARGE IN SIZE FOR HANDLING WOOD WASTE AND CONSTRUCTION WASTE SHREDDING

THE THERE IS THE THREE SHAFT SHEAR TYPE SHREDDER...ORIGINS UNKNOWN

THE FOUR SHAFT SHEAR TYPE SHREDDER, OR QUAD TYPE SHREDDER OF THE 1972 SATURN DESIGN

THE SINGLE SHAFT RASPER WHICH COULD BE CONSIDERED A SINGLE SHAFT ROTARY GRINDER BUT DUE TO ITS ROTOR DESIGN HAS ITS OWN CATEGORY WHICH WE CALL THE WISCONSIN METAL RIPPER AND TODAY MORE AFFILIATED AS THE ELDAN DESIGN

THE SINGLE SHAFT AUGER TYPE RIPPER OF THE IGGESSUND DESIGN

THE TWO SHAFT AUGER TYPE RIPPER OF THE IGGESUND DESIGN

THE THREE SHAFT AUGER TYPE RIPPER AGAIN FROM THE IGGESUND DESIGN

THEN WE HAVE THE SINGLE SHAFT BLOAPCO TYPE RIPPER PIONEERED BY THE PANNING FAMILY OF WISCONSIN

THE DUAL SHAFT BLOAPCO TYPE RIPPER ONCE AGAIN PIONEERED BY THE PANNING FAMILY OF WISCONSIN

THE TRIPLE SHAFT BLOAPCO TYPE RIPPER FINALLY AND LASTLY PIONEERED BY THE PANNING FAMILY OF WISCONSIN

THE DUAL SHAFT PADDLE WHEEL RIPPER DESIGNED FROM THE PADDLE WHEEL MIXER DESIGNS FOR CLAY MIXING IN THE BRICK INDUSTRY AND COMMON TODAY AS THE HAMMEL DESIGN

THE TUB GRINDER WHICH IS A HYBRID HAMMERMILL IN A ROTATING FEED HOPPER COMMONLY KNOWN AS THE WHO - MEDALLIAN - JONES DESIGN

THERE MAY BE MANY MORE SPECIAL DESIGNS THAT ARE NOT OUTLINED IN THIS DATA BUT OVERALL THESE MACHINES LISTED ABOVE FORM THE CORE EQUIPMENT USED TO DAY IN THE PROCESSING OF WASTE MATERIALS FOR RECYCLING AND VOLUME REDUCTION
