Paper Shredding Machine

Product Overview

This is the EM-PS500 paper shredding machine listed for kraft void fill work: sheets up to 480 mm wide from 14 gsm to 350 gsm, shredded at 25 m per minute into strands that are normally 3 mm wide. The finished shredded kraft is an environmentally friendly shock proof filler that goes into gift boxes, bottle packaging, electronics cartons and any shipper holding fragile goods.

Key Benefits

  • Shredded kraft is a single material filler, so the whole carton goes into paper recycling
  • Adjustable 25 m per minute working speed lets output be matched to the packing line
  • Feed height up to 100 mm so a full stack of sheets can be loaded at once
  • 260 kg and 2500 x 820 x 960 mm, small enough to sit next to the packing area
Problems It Solves

What This Machine Fixes

  • Void fill bought in bulk costs more in freight and storage than in material

Manufacturing Process

The Process This Machine Runs

Sheet feeding

Stage 1 of the kraft paper shredding machine process.

Shredding

Stage 2 of the kraft paper shredding machine process.

Crinkling

Stage 3 of the kraft paper shredding machine process.

Conveyor discharge

Stage 4 of the kraft paper shredding machine process.

Quality Control

  • Cut width checked against the fitted module at each run
  • Sheet count per pass kept within the published limit for the paper weight
  • Discharge checked so strands stay separated rather than matted

Use Guide

  • Keep the feed stack within the 100 mm feeding height
  • Respect the 8 to 10 sheet limit per pass at 70 g paper
  • Confirm the module matches the strand width before starting a run
  • Collect the strands loosely so they stay fluffy and fill volume
Comparison

How It Compares With The Alternatives

Compared with Crinkle Paper Shredding Machine

Same EM-PS500 machine and specification. That listing is framed around decorative crinkle filler, this one around kraft void fill production.

Compared with Kraft Paper Cushion Making Machine

The cushion machine forms a pad from a continuous web. The shredder cuts loose strands from sheets. Void fill and cushioning solve different parts of the same packing problem.
