Purchasing an industrial-grade comprehensive crusher is a significant investment. To provide you with a clearer and more transparent understanding of our equipment, we have compiled several core questions most frequently asked by customers and offer focused, candid answers here.
Q1: What exactly can this comprehensive crusher process? What can’t it process?
A: this is the most fundamental and crucial question.
The range of materials it can crush is extremely broad, primarily including:
- Wooden pallets/skids with nails: can be crushed along with nails and small reinforcing metal plates attached to the pallets.
- Construction formwork/scrap wood: discarded formwork, lumber, doors, windows, etc., from demolition sites.
- Tree roots/stumps/branches: forestry logging residues or landscaping waste.
- Discarded furniture: such as sofa frames, wooden beds, tables, chairs, etc. (Requires prior removal of large amounts of foam and fabric).
- Straw/bamboo baled material: agricultural and forestry waste compressed by balers.
Materials that cannot or should not be crushed:
- Large or heavy solid metal pieces: such as engine blocks, I-beams, and thick steel plates. The internal nail removal system is designed to handle nails and thin metal sheets mixed within wood, and cannot process heavy metal.
- Large concrete chunks or stones: these materials possess extreme hardness and will severely damage blades and machine structure.
- Tires, large quantities of soft plastics/fabrics: these materials easily wrap around the main shaft, impairing crushing efficiency.
Core advantage: its “integrated” capability lies in processing complex wood waste containing nails and small amounts of thin metal without requiring cumbersome manual pre-sorting.
Q2: How much electricity is typically consumed to shred one ton of wooden pallets?
A: this is a core operational cost question. The answer isn’t fixed and depends on several factors:
- Material moisture and hardness: crushing dry, loose wood consumes less electricity than processing wet, hard tree roots.
- Feed consistency: continuous, even feeding maintains smoother, lower energy consumption compared to feeding large batches at once.
- Blade sharpness: new or freshly sharpened blades operate more efficiently, naturally reducing power consumption.
A reference range: under normal operating conditions, processing one ton of common waste wooden pallets typically consumes between 15-25 kWh of electricity. This is an estimate, and actual figures may vary based on your chosen machine model (motor power) and specific operational conditions.
Q3: Blades are wear parts. How long does a set last? Is replacement costly?
A: to be perfectly honest, blades represent one of the primary operating costs for comprehensive shredders. Their lifespan also depends on the materials you process.
Factors affecting lifespan:
- Material “cleanliness”: if your wood contains significant amounts of sand, gravel, or concrete chunks, blade wear accelerates dramatically. Pure wood conditions yield the longest blade life.
- Metal content: crushing pallets with nails causes significantly greater blade wear than processing pure wood branches.
- Service life reference: when processing relatively clean wood, a set of blades can sustain production for 800-1500 tons before requiring regrinding or replacement.
Our blades are crafted from high-strength, wear-resistant alloy steel and designed for removable, multiple-regrind capability. Typically, a blade set can be reground 2-3 times, significantly reducing your long-term operating costs.
Replacement cost: we provide genuine blade accessories at the most competitive prices. Compared to the investment in the entire machine, the cost of replacing blades individually is entirely manageable.
Q4: What does the finished product look like after crushing? Can the size be adjusted?
A: the material produced by the comprehensive crusher is flake-shaped or block-shaped, which we refer to as “wood chips” or “chips.”
Finished size: the finished size is primarily determined by the mesh aperture of the screen at the bottom of the machine. Material is repeatedly crushed within the crushing chamber until it is smaller than the screen aperture before being discharged.
Size adjustment: yes, the size can be adjusted. We can configure screens with different apertures (e.g., 3cm, 5cm, 8cm) based on your requirements. Simply replacing the screen changes the output size to meet the needs of your subsequent processes.
Q5: How effective is this machine’s most crucial function—nail removal?
A: nail removal is the core function of our comprehensive shredder. Our equipment employs a forced magnetic separation system.
Working principle: crushed material travels via the discharge conveyor belt. At the belt’s end, we install a powerful magnetic drum.
As material passes through, wood chips fall naturally due to gravity, while metal contaminants like nails and metal scraps are firmly attracted to the drum’s surface. As the drum rotates to the opposite side, these contaminants lose magnetic attraction and fall into a dedicated waste bin.
Nail removal rate: under normal operating conditions, the nail removal rate exceeds 95%. This not only protects downstream equipment (such as wood chippers and pellet mills) from damage but also ensures your finished wood chips are purer, commanding higher market prices.
Q6: What is the price of a comprehensive crusher?
A: the price of a comprehensive crusher is not a “fixed price” because it is a customizable system. The price is primarily composed of the following components:
- Main unit model: we offer multiple models with processing capacities ranging from several tons to dozens of tons per hour. Larger models command higher prices.
- Power configuration: you can choose between an electric motor or a diesel engine drive, each with different pricing.
- Supporting equipment: the price typically includes the main unit, feed conveyor belt, discharge conveyor belt, and magnetic separation system. However, if you require longer conveyor belts or additional equipment like a log grapple or dust collection system, the price will adjust accordingly.
