Applications of Styrofoam Shredders

 

Styrofoam peanuts Styrofoam flakes Styrofoam blocks

Styrofoam shredders are used to make flakes from Styrofoam blocks for cushion applications and for further recycling. The machine can also reduce the volume of polystyrene foam for easier transportation. Either it is packaging material, insulation board, cut-offs from modeling, and skeleton form Styrofoam sheet thermoforming, the machine crush the big peaces into smaller 1” to 1.6” flakes, which can be a replacement of peanuts for cushion packaging and can be easily feed into extruders to make pellets.

How the Styrofoam Shredder Works
You throw Styrofoam boxes into the machine hopper.
The breaker knives break the foam boxes into smaller flakes.
An optional screen under the crushing chamber and out-feed flakes of size 1”/1.6”/2.4”.
The Styrofoam flakes are collected in the plastic bag.
The result is small pieces of Styrofoam flakes to be used for cushion applications or for extrusion pelletizing
