How to Protect Shredder and Granulator Blades

 Ningbo Beilun Rhong Machinery Manufacturing Co.,Ltd. Shredder and granulator blades are designed to endure high levels of impact and high volumes of materials in a recycling line, but over time can become worn as a result of the continuous impact and eventually need replacing. It is therefore important to ensure that they are maintained properly to reduce the risk of machine downtime and enhance the production quality. To prolong the lifespan of shredder and granulator blades, there are a number of measures which can be taken.

·  Shredder and granulator blades are usually mounted upon bearings which allow them to rotate. These bearings should be regularly checked and lubricated to ensure their smooth rotation so that the blessed can perform to the highest possible standard. On top of this, blades should also be oiled and at least once a month to keep them running smoothly. 

· It’s important not to overload the production line with infeed materials as this can lead to their accelerated wear. The excessive loading of materials can cause a high-level of intense impact upon the blades that they are not designed to manage. Therefore, the regulated feed of material, for example through and Feed Hopper, is necessary to ensure that blades are not overwhelmed with materials. 

· These blades are designed specifically to suit the type of infeed material being processed. Therefore, the excessive processing of damaging contaminants such as metals and glass in a plastic recycling line can lead to the blades becoming blunted and consequently producing a lower-quality end-product. 

· If possible, the blade can be safely removed from the shredder or granulator and sharpened before being replaced into the machine. This method helps to reduce the costs of replacement, but can only be done if blades do not show signs of lasting damage. Furthermore, the method of sharpening blades can only be repeated so many times until they must be replaced. 

· Over time, blades can become contaminated and blocked by infeed materials, which in turn can impact upon their productivity. To combat this, blades should be cleaned once a month to remove contaminants and residues that could be impacting upon their performance.
