Welcome to the ASG Single shaft Shredder Plus Granulator, the ultimate solution for efficient pipes recycling.
Here, we see large pipes being fed into the single-shaft shredder. This powerful shredder breaks down the pipes quickly and smoothly. The design ensures high-efficiency shredding with no blockages, making it perfect for heavy-duty recycling tasks.
The shredded material is then sent through a belt conveyor into the granulator.
After the granulation process, the material is transferred to the storage bin. Here, the final granulated product is safely stored, ready to be reused in the next stage of the recycling process.
Let’s take a closer look at the shredding process. The shredder uses high-strength rotor blades to efficiently cut the pipe material. Notice the cutting rotor and the staggered positioning of the blades, which create smooth and consistent cuts. The machine is built for high output, minimal maintenance, and delivers precise results every time.
After shredding, the material moves smoothly through the belt conveyor, ensuring quick and efficient transport to the granulator.
Here, you can see the granulator in action. The shredded pipes are finely ground, thanks to the precise cutting system. The high-quality blades and adjustable clearance provide excellent shredding results, producing a clean, consistent output.
Finally, the granulated material is sent through an airflow system into the storage bin. This ensures that the material is collected safely and efficiently, ready to be reused or further processed.
The ASG Single shaft Shredder Plus Granulator combines efficiency, reliability, and advanced technology to deliver top-notch results in pipe recycling. Streamline your process with our cutting-edge solution!

Frequently Asked Questions
What materials can the shredder-plus-granulator combo process?
The system is built for large rigid pipes — typically HDPE and PVC pipes from construction, plumbing, and municipal applications — plus other bulky rigid plastics. The single-shaft shredder first breaks whole pipes into manageable pieces, and the granulator then reduces them to uniform granules. This two-machine combination handles pipe diameters and wall thicknesses that would jam a granulator working alone.
Why combine a shredder and a granulator instead of using one machine?
A shredder alone produces coarse, irregular pieces; a granulator alone cannot swallow whole pipes. Pairing them gives two-stage size reduction: the shredder does the heavy pre-cutting quickly with no blockages, and the granulator finishes the job with precise cutting for clean, consistent output. Each machine works in its ideal range, which raises throughput and extends blade life on both.
How does the process flow work?
Large pipes feed into the single-shaft shredder, whose high-strength rotor blades with staggered positioning cut them smoothly. Shredded material travels by belt conveyor into the granulator for fine grinding, and the finished granules move through an airflow system into a storage bin. The enclosed conveying and pneumatic transfer keep dust low and the line running continuously from pipe infeed to granule storage.
What output size and quality can I expect?
The granulator’s precise cutting system and adjustable blade clearance produce clean, uniform granules ready for reuse in extrusion, injection molding, or pipe production. Consistent particle size matters for downstream processing — even feeding and stable melt — so the two-stage approach delivers noticeably better granule uniformity than single-stage shredding. Output sizing can be tuned via the granulator screen to match your application.
What maintenance does the system require?
Both machines are designed for minimal maintenance: inspect the shredder’s rotor blades and the granulator’s cutting system regularly, check and adjust blade clearance as edges wear, and keep the belt conveyor and airflow transfer lines clear. Individually replaceable blades keep service costs down. A scheduled blade maintenance routine matched to your pipe material and operating hours prevents unplanned stops.
What power and installation space does the combination need?
As heavy-duty industrial equipment, the shredder-plus-granulator setup needs three-phase power with proper motor protection and a solid, level foundation. Plan floor space for the full train — shredder infeed area for handling long pipes, belt conveyor, granulator, and storage bin — with access for blade changes.
