A self-adhesive label shredder<\/h2><\/div>Do you remember the legendary Panini stickers? Who could forget them. Certainly no one, except industry professionals, thought about what to do with the production line waste from the stickers. <\/p>\n
However, a client of ours from the Vicenza area asked this question, as they wanted to reuse the waste from self-adhesive label production and prevent it from being unproductive or even a cost. Therefore, they set out to find a self-adhesive label shredder.<\/p>\n<\/div>
The Supply<\/h3><\/div>Based on the volumes of label waste, we determined that a K25 series 2-shaft shredder with 25 HP electric motor would suit their needs. The shredder, with a grinding chamber of 1,008 x 700 mm, is equipped with 50 mm thick single-hook blades. Thus, we adapted an industrial shredder into a self-adhesive label shredder.<\/p>\n<\/div>

To overcome this problem, the supply is equipped with a washing system using a special detergent solution: a pressurized tank feeds two nebulizers positioned in the hopper.<\/p>\n
During the shredding cycle, managed by a programmable logic controller (PLC), the detergent is automatically sprayed into the hopper at regular intervals, thus preventing the labels from adhering where they should not. Simple indeed!<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
