High-Performance Single-Shaft Shredder
The Lindner Jupiter is a primary single-shaft shredder designed for the initial stage of plastic recycling and mixed industrial waste processing. Thanks to its robust cutting technology and proven mechanical design, Jupiter ensures homogeneous particle size reduction with low fines generation, optimizing the efficiency of downstream processes such as NIR sorting, washing and material recovery.
Key Features
- Low-speed single-shaft technology for controlled shredding that minimizes unwanted fines and preserves material quality.
- Cutting system with four-time reversible knives, engineered to withstand contaminants and difficult input materials.
- Countershaft drive system with energy storage, ensuring the right balance between high torque availability and optimized energy consumption.
- Flexible output sizing configuration, delivering consistent particle dimensions (e.g. DIN A4/A3 size) ideal for sorting and washing applications.
Operational Advantages
- High reliability in continuous 24/7 operation, with easy maintenance access and long-life components.
- Significant reduction of non-recyclable fines compared to conventional technologies, improving process yield and material recovery.
- Wide application versatility, suitable for plastic films, mixed materials, industrial production waste and challenging input streams.
Why Jupiter is Strategic in a Plastic Washing PlantThe Jupiter shredder represents the critical first step in any advanced recycling line. The quality of size reduction directly affects the performance of the entire treatment chain: uniform particle preparation enhances optical sorting efficiency, improves washing performance, increases material recovery rates and ultimately raises the quality of the final recyclate. With Jupiter, plant performance is optimized from the very beginning of the process.
