Kraft Paper Shredding Machine
EM-PS500 shredder set up for kraft void fill production runs




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
What This Machine Fixes
- Void fill bought in bulk costs more in freight and storage than in material
- Mixed plastic and paper packaging forces the receiver to separate waste
- Kraft trim and offcuts leave the plant as low value waste
Who Buys It
- Distribution centres making their own void fill
- Converters with kraft trim they currently sell as waste
- Packaging suppliers adding shredded kraft to their range
Where The Output Is Used
- Producing kraft void fill for a distribution centre's own use
- Converting offcuts and trim into saleable filler
- Filling electronics and component cartons against shock
- Supplying shredded kraft to retail and e-commerce packers

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

- Sheet count per pass kept within the published limit for the paper weight
- Discharge checked so strands stay separated rather than matted
Use Guide

- 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
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.
