ZL-PC800 Multi-Material Shredder 30kW 1000kg/h Industrial
Mixed-resin plastic waste streams at industrial scale (10,000-50,000 tonnes/year) require a shredder that handles PET, PP, PE, PVC, ABS, PS, PC, and PMMA in a single pass. The ZL-PC800 Multi-Material Shredder processes eight common resins at 1000 kg/h with the 24-blade rotor geometry and screen range optimized for downstream density separation and optical sorting.

The ZL-PC800 Multi-Material Shredder processes PET, PP, PE, PVC, ABS, PS, PC, and PMMA in a single pass at 1000 kg/h. The 24-blade rotor geometry produces consistent flake size across resin types, so downstream density separation works as designed without re-tuning for each input stream. For mixed-resin recycling facilities processing curbside or industrial co-mingled streams, this eliminates the need for separate shredders for each resin type.
For mixed-resin recycling facilities processing 10,000+ tonnes per year, the ZL-PC800 single-machine configuration replaces 2-3 dedicated resin shredders. Capital cost savings are typically USD 80,000-150,000 versus purchasing multiple smaller machines for the same throughput. Combined with reduced floor space and simplified material handling, the single-machine economics are compelling for any mixed-stream operation above 8,000 tonnes/year.
The eight resins compatible with the ZL-PC800 have distinct densities that drive downstream sink-float separation: PET 1.38 g/cc, PVC 1.40 g/cc, PC 1.20 g/cc, PMMA 1.18 g/cc, PS 1.05 g/cc (all sink in water); ABS 1.07 g/cc (sinks, marginal); PP 0.91 g/cc, PE 0.92-0.97 g/cc (float). The ZL-PC800 output at 8 mm screen produces flake sizes that work efficiently with sink-float separation tanks, with 95-98% purity on PET and 92-95% on PP/PE.
For a 20,000 tonne/year mixed-resin MRF, the density separation efficiency translates to 95-97% pure PET flake (USD 850-1,100/tonne rPET market price) and 90-93% pure PP/PE mixed flake (USD 250-400/tonne). Combined revenue per tonne of input material is USD 600-800, against USD 50-150/tonne tipping fee cost, generating USD 9-13 million annual gross revenue.
Beyond rigid plastics, the ZL-PC800 processes flexible films and sheet with 30 kW motor torque that smaller machines lack. PE agricultural film, PP woven bag scrap, and PVC flexible sheet all pass through the rotor geometry without jamming or stalling. The 30 kW motor torque headroom (36% above PC700 22 kW) handles the moment-of-cutting torque spikes that film materials create.
For rigid-fibre composites (GF-reinforced PP, CF-reinforced PE), the optional carbide-tipped blade upgrade (USD 680) increases blade life by 3-4 times compared to standard SKD-11. The carbide upgrade is recommended for plants processing aerospace, automotive, and sporting goods composite scrap where GF content above 30% would reduce standard blade life from 800-1200 hours to 200-400 hours.
For large MRFs running mixed-resin recovery lines above 20,000 tonnes/year, the ZL-PC800 single-machine configuration replaces 2-3 dedicated resin shredders. Capital cost savings are typically USD 80,000-150,000 versus purchasing multiple smaller machines for the same throughput. Combined with reduced floor space and simplified material handling, the single-machine economics are compelling.
For MRF facilities processing 10,000+ tonnes of mixed plastic annually, the ZL-PC800 delivers the throughput required to keep downstream wash and separation lines operating at full capacity. Operators report 18-22 percent improvement in plant-wide throughput after consolidating shredding on the ZL-PC800 platform. The consolidated operation also reduces labor (3-5 operators to 1-2) and simplifies maintenance scheduling (one machine to service instead of three).
The ZL-PC800 output at 8 mm screen produces flake sizes that feed directly into Near-Infrared (NIR) optical sorters without intermediate granulation. NIR sorting separates PET, HDPE, PP, and other polymers with 95-99% purity at throughputs up to 2,000 kg/h per sorter. For plants adding optical sorting to an existing MRF, the ZL-PC800 output is calibrated to feed directly into the sorter without intermediate handling.
For plants without optical sorting, the ZL-PC800 output feeds into a sink-float separation tank with 85-90% purity (lower than optical but adequate for non-food-grade applications). Adding optical sorting typically doubles the MRF revenue per tonne processed, justifying the USD 200,000-400,000 investment in optical sorting equipment at large MRFs.
Q: What is the maximum resin mix the ZL-PC800 can process?
Up to 8 distinct resins in a single pass (PET, PP, PE, PVC, ABS, PS, PC, PMMA). Beyond 8 resins, downstream separation becomes impractical due to overlapping densities. For 3-4 resin streams (e.g., PET + HDPE only), throughput increases to 1100-1200 kg/h due to optimized screen selection.
Q: Can the machine process flexible film and rigid plastic in the same stream?
Yes, with throughput reduction to 700-800 kg/h (vs 1000 kg/h for rigid-only streams). Film material tends to wrap on standard rotors; the ZL-PC800 high-torque rotor handles film wrapping without jamming. For best results, pre-shred film in a dedicated machine before combining with rigid stream.
Q: What is the typical MRF payback period for a ZL-PC800?
12-18 months for a 20,000+ tonne/year MRF. The ZL-PC800 represents 8-12% of total MRF capital cost (USD 4,640 of USD 50,000-80,000 total equipment cost per 20,000 tonne/year line including wash, separation, and baling).
Q: Does the machine require special operator training?
Basic training (2 hours) covers start-up, shut-down, jam clearing, and screen changes. Most MRF operators learn the ZL-PC800 within 1 shift. Advanced training on rotor alignment and bearing service is available from ZILLION technicians (USD 1,200 on-site).
Q: Can the machine process metal-contaminated streams?
Mild metal contamination (aluminum caps, small steel fragments) is tolerated and passes through the screen. Larger metal objects require upstream magnetic separation (overbelt or drum type, USD 3,500-5,000). The ZL-PC800 reversing switch clears metal jams in 2-3 minutes versus 30-60 minutes for machines without this feature.
