Wood is a common renewable resource, and it can be used to make a variety of products such as furniture, flooring, windows, doors, and paper. However, if left untreated, wood can take up a lot of space, causing waste and pollution. Therefore, crushing wood is an effective way to convert wood into wood chips or other valuable materials.
So, how does a wood shredder work?What are its advantages and disadvantages?Let's take a look!
First of all, we want to understand the main components of a wood shredder. According to different types and functions, wood shredders can be divided into the following types:
Xi typeThis type of wood shredder is mainly composed of a hammer or blade on the rotor disk, which is electrically driven to rotate and generate high-speed air flow to impact, cut, compress and other effects on the material. The advantages of this type are simple structure, easy operation, and low costThe disadvantages are low efficiency, high noise, and easy to generate sparks and smoke.
Multi-functional: In addition to the function of Xi type, this type of wood shredder also has accessories such as screen, analyzer, dust collector, etc., which can classify, filter, clean and other treatments of materials. The advantages of this type are high efficiency, low noise, and good environmental protection;The disadvantage is that the structure is complex and high.
TemplateThis type of wood shredder is mainly composed of formwork or mold, which is driven by electric drive to rotate the formwork, and generates high-speed airflow to compress or stretch the material. The advantage of this type is that it is suitable for materials of various shapes and sizes;The disadvantage is that the template is inefficient and easily damaged.
Secondly, we need to understand how a wood shredder works. Depending on the type and function, the wood shredder can adopt the following principles:
Xi typeThis principle is to use a hammer or blade to repeatedly impact or cut the material, and generate a high-speed air flow to impact or compress the material. When the hammer or blade is in contact with the material, friction and heat are generated between the two, a small hole is formed between the two, a bubble is formed in the hole, a pressure difference is formed in the bubble, a kinetic energy is formed in the pressure difference, a shock wave is formed in the kinetic energy, and a broken material is formed in the shock wave, which is the working principle of the wood shredder.
Multi-functionalThis principle is to use screens, analyzers, dust collectors and other accessories to classify, filter, clean and other materials. When the material passes through the screen, the material with large particles will be screened out, and the material with small particles will be screened in. The analyser then analyzes the sieved material and selects the appropriate treatment method according to the nature and purpose of the material. Finally, the dust collector will clean the processed materials to remove dust and impurities in the materials to ensure the purity and quality of the materials.
TemplateThis principle is to use the template or mold to compress or stretch the material. When the material passes through the template, the template will exert pressure on the material and deform the material, so as to achieve the purpose of crushing. This principle is applicable to materials of various shapes and sizes, and can crush various materials such as hardwood, cork, bamboo, forage, etc.
Wood shredder is an important equipment, which can crush wood and other materials into fine particles, improve the utilization rate of wood, save resources and reduce pollution. By understanding the main components, working principles and operation methods of wood shredders, we can better use and maintain wood shredders and improve their work efficiency and service life. Hopefully, this article will help you better understand how wood shredders work and how to use them.
