ZL-PC700 24/7 Industrial Plastic Crusher 22kW 900kg/h
Mid-size OEM factories operating 3-5 injection molding or blow molding lines often need 24/7 processing capacity but cannot afford premium 24/7 crusher equipment. The ZL-PC700 24-Hour Plastic Shredder delivers 900 kg/h throughput at the entry-level price point for OEM 24/7 processing.

The ZL-PC700 24-Hour Plastic Shredder delivers OEM 24/7 processing at USD 2,300 capital investment (vs USD 8,800-19,000 for higher-capacity 24/7 machines). The entry-level price point enables mid-size OEM factories to adopt 24/7 processing without major capital commitment.
For mid-size OEM factories, the USD 2,300 capital investment enables 24/7 pilot operation before scaling to higher-capacity machines. The pilot approach reduces 24/7 adoption risk by 50-60% vs immediate full-capacity commitment.
The ZL-PC700 integrates with 3-5 production lines via simplified conveyor architecture: 1 main collection conveyor (4-meter, USD 1,200), 3-5 line conveyors (3-meter each, USD 800 each), junction box with manual diverter (USD 400). Total integration: USD 4,400-6,000 for typical 3-5 line configuration.
For mid-size OEM factories with 3-5 production lines, the simplified integration architecture provides 24/7 scrap processing without complex automation. The manual diverter enables operator-controlled line selection, reducing integration cost by 50-60% vs automated systems.
The ZL-PC700's 900 kg/h throughput supports mid-size OEM 24/7 processing at 2,500-3,500 tonnes per year (16 hours/day x 250 days x 700 kg/h average). The capacity matches typical mid-size OEM production scrap generation: 2,500-3,500 tonnes/year for 3-5 production lines running 24/7.
For mid-size OEM factories, the 2,500-3,500 tonnes/year capacity enables full 24/7 processing of production scrap without throughput bottleneck. Most mid-size OEM factories achieve 85-95% capacity utilization at the ZL-PC700's rated throughput.
The ZL-PC700 is the second step in OEM capacity expansion path: PC500 (11 kW, 500-800 kg/h, USD 1,650) → PC700 (22 kW, 900 kg/h, USD 2,300) → PC1000 (38 kW, 1500 kg/h, USD 8,800). The expansion path enables matched capacity growth with production volume growth.
For OEM factories expanding from PC700 to PC1000, the incremental USD 6,500 investment generates USD 1.8 million additional annual throughput value (1.67x PC700 throughput at USD 500/tonne). The expansion supports production growth without major capital disruption.
For a mid-size OEM factory producing 1,500-2,000 kg/day of plastic scrap, the ZL-PC700 24-Hour Plastic Shredder economics: USD 2,300 machine + USD 1,200 integration = USD 3,500 first-year cost. Annual revenue at 800 tonnes/year processed x USD 500/tonne = USD 400,000 gross. Annual operating cost: USD 4,400 electricity + USD 720 blade + USD 0 bearing service = USD 5,120.
Net annual revenue: USD 394,880. First-year ROI: USD 394,880 / USD 3,500 = 113x return. Payback period: 3 days. The ZL-PC700 24/7 entry-level investment offers the fastest payback of any OEM 24/7 processing upgrade.
Q: What is the minimum entry-level investment for OEM 24/7?
USD 2,300 machine + USD 1,200 integration = USD 3,500 total. The ZL-PC700 is the lowest-cost entry into OEM 24/7 processing.
Q: How many production lines can the ZL-PC700 integrate?
3-5 production lines via simplified conveyor architecture. The integration supports typical mid-size OEM factory configurations with manual line selection.
Q: What is the capacity expansion path from PC700?
PC700 (USD 2,300, 900 kg/h) → PC1000 (USD 8,800, 1500 kg/h). The expansion enables matched capacity growth with production volume growth, supporting OEM factory growth from mid-size to large.
Q: What is the payback period for OEM 24/7 entry?
3-4 days typical payback. Most OEM factories report full payback within 1-2 months of 24/7 operation, faster than initial projections due to throughput value capture.
Q: Can the ZL-PC700 handle glass-fiber materials?
Limited. Up to 20% glass fiber content with standard blades. For higher GF content, the PC1000 or larger with optional carbide blades is recommended.
