Profitable cardboard core recycling – a job for the PHH core shredder
Robust and unwieldy cardboard cores are a real challenge for disposal processes in paper and cardboard processing. Cores cannot be transported with conveyor belts nor pressed in container and baling presses. Even though cardboard cores are a valuable resource, they have been disposed of separately so far and often at a cost. This expensive special treatment not only costs money but time as well. However, shredded cardboard cores are easily integrated into existing recycling processes. This increases recycled paper proceeds, minimises storage space and lowers personnel and logistics costs.
With the new generation of the PHH core shredder, HÖCKER POLYTECHNIK GmbH is presenting the fully revised version of the successful shredder model. This robust and fully automated machine shreds up to 120 cardboard cores (length: 3m) per hour. The core is simply inserted in the feeder, which automatically draws in cardboard cores up to 160 mm in diameter and with a wall thickness of up to 40 mm. Shredded cardboard that can be recycled with regular waste paper is the result. The company saves money with every shredded cardboard core.
