The working principle of a shredder primarily relies on the mechanical principles of shearing, tearing, and crushing. Material enters the shredder through its inlet and is subsequently sheared and torn by the rotating cutting blades or gears inside. These blades or gears collaborate to apply force to the material, gradually breaking it down into smaller fragments. During the shearing and tearing process, the material may undergo further compression to achieve the desired particle size and density. Finally, the processed fragments are discharged through the outlet of the shredder. Different types of shredders vary in their cutting blades and internal structure, but their basic working principles are similar.
