Shredding long plastic pipes and other extruded plastics can be troublesome as the pieces are long and difficult to feed into traditional plastic shredder or granulator machines. To improve the efficiency of plastic recycling plants that handle this type of material, we introduce our very own extruded plastic pipe shredder system.
This extruded plastic pipe shredder system can handle pipes up to 5 meters long with diameters up to 650 mm and an incredible capacity range from 600 kg/hr up to 2000 kg/hr.
WORKING PRINCIPLE
To make feeding the long plastic pipes and tubes simple for operators, we’ve designed a horizontal feeding dock where the material can be initially loaded. As seen in our product images, a large diameter black pipe has been loaded into the feeding dock where a hydraulic arm will automatically feed it into a single-shaft plastic shredder machine.
The regrind material produced will be around 120mm x 40mm.
If you require smaller sized regrinds, simply feed these large-sized chips into our plastic granulator machine for further size reduction using a belt conveyor. This optional process reduces the regrind size to under 20mm.

Frequently Asked Questions
What pipe sizes can the system handle?
The system handles pipes up to 5 meters long with diameters up to 650 mm. Four models (CS-600 to CS-1500) cover rotor diameters from 600 to 1500 mm and capacities from 600 kg/hr up to 2000 kg/hr. Larger, more powerful models are available on request, and CE certification is offered.
How does the pipe shredder system work?
Long pipes are loaded onto a horizontal feeding dock, where a hydraulic arm automatically feeds them into a single-shaft plastic shredder. The shredder reduces them to regrind around 120mm x 40mm. For finer output, the chips can pass through a plastic granulator via belt conveyor, reducing regrind size to under 20mm.
What capacity options are available?
The CS-600 handles 1200 kg/hr with 2x 37 kW motors, the CS-800 and CS-1500 reach 2000 kg/hr with 2x 45 kW and 2x 75 kW respectively, and the CS-1000 is rated at 1500 kg/hr with 2x 55 kW. The overall system range is 600-2000 kg/hr depending on pipe material and wall thickness.
What materials can it shred besides pipes?
The system is designed for long extruded plastics: pipes, tubes, and profiles in materials such as HDPE, PP, and PVC that are difficult to feed into traditional shredders. The horizontal dock and hydraulic feed handle long, awkward pieces that would jam conventional hoppers.
What power and installation requirements apply?
Motor power ranges from 2x 37 kW on the CS-600 to 2x 75 kW on the CS-1500, so plan for three-phase industrial power sized to the model. Installation needs a level floor with enough length for the 5-meter feeding dock, plus space for the shredder, conveyors, and regrind collection.
What maintenance and warranty apply?
All machines come with a one-year limited warranty. Regularly inspect the shredder blades and hydraulic feed arm, check the rotor bearings, and keep the dock area clear. Keep spare blades on hand: shredding thick-walled pipe is heavy-duty work that wears cutting edges faster than film or bottle flake.
