Mattress Shredder Machine

Mattress shredders are heavy-duty industrial shredding equipment specifically designed for waste mattresses. Unlike general-purpose large-item shredders, mattress shredders are specifically adapted for handling difficult-to-process materials such as whole-wire springs, individually pocketed springs, high-density foam, textile fabrics, and multi-layered composite materials with wood-plastic frames. Mattress shredders use shearing, tearing, and compression to shred the entire mattress in one pass, breaking down the springs, foam, and fabric into uniform shreds, thus reducing the volume of large items. They are the core front-end machine in mattress recycling lines.

Mattress shredders are divided into two main categories: stationary factory models and tracked mobile models.

Mattress shredder technical features:

1. Low-speed, high-torque anti-tangling cutter roller system, special alloy cutters with a side comb structure, cuts mattress steel wires and prevents fabric from tangling on the roller.

2. Independent hydraulic drive + intelligent overload reverse protection, heavy-duty wear-resistant main shaft bearings, supporting 24-hour continuous operation.

3. Hydraulic floating feeding mechanism with a wide feed hopper prevents mattress rebound and material spillage, suitable for direct feeding of whole mattresses.

4. Modular replaceable screens allow for controllable discharge particle size, facilitating material separation via magnetic and air separation at the back end.

5. Siemens PLC fully automatic electrical control, fully enclosed dust and noise reduction system, compliant with European and American CE and OSHA safety and environmental standards.

Mattress shredding and sorting line process:
1, Feeding and coarse crushing: The whole mattress is fed into the dedicated mattress shredder via a chain conveyor for coarse crushing, cutting the steel springs, breaking up the mixture of foam, fabric, and wooden frame materials, and is equipped with a negative pressure dust collector to suppress dust.

2,Two-stage magnetic separation for iron removal: Coarsely crushed material is first separated by suspended permanent magnet separation to remove most of the spring steel wire; after fine crushing, the material is then captured by drum magnetic separation to capture small iron filings, which are then collected and packaged for recycling.

3,Eddy current non-ferrous metal separation: Iron-removed material is fed into eddy current separators to separate aluminum hardware and composite metal-plastic parts from mattresses; non-ferrous metals are collected separately.

4,Material classification and utilization: Residual wood chips, sponges, and fabrics are sorted and stored. Wood is used as biomass raw material, sponges and fabrics are recycled filling materials, and mixed waste is processed into SRF fuel; contaminated sponges are disposed of separately as hazardous waste.

5,Supporting features: The entire machine is PLC intelligently controlled, with overload protection, and complies with European and American CE environmental and safety standards.
