FY-SS01-500 Compact Shredder

Review the FY-SS01-500 compact reference with a 7.5 kW drive, Ø200 × 20 mm cutters and a 700 × 700 × 350 mm feed reference.

The largest published standard compact FY-SS01 configuration

The FY-SS01-500 is the largest standard compact reference listed in the FY-SS01 range. It combines a 7.5 kW drive with 24 cutters at Ø200 × 20 mm, a 15 rpm cutter-speed reference and a 700 × 700 × 350 mm feed reference. Review it for bulkier, consistent production scrap that still suits a compact factory-side workflow.

Start with material review and the actual loading arrangement. The published reference is not a guarantee that every part within the stated dimensions will feed or process successfully. Required throughput and output condition must be assessed with the material and confirmed configuration.

FY-SS01-500 reference specification

These published values describe a reference configuration. Final supply follows the approved quotation and drawings.

Published FY-SS01-500 configuration
Parameter Reference value
Layout Standard compact
Drive 7.5 kW
Reference supply 380 V, three phase
Cutter speed 15 rpm
Cutters 24 discs; Ø200 × 20 mm
Feed reference 700 × 700 × 350 mm
Reference weight Approximately 750 kg

Cutter dimensions are diameter × thickness; the listed quantity is the disc count. Throughput and output size must be established for the actual material and feeding conditions.

Assess bulkier production scrap within a compact workflow

For the largest standard compact reference, give equal attention to scrap preparation and handling. Bulkier consistent feed can require a different loading route from small loose offcuts, while thick local sections and contamination still determine the cutting review.

Describe the entire item
Photograph complete rejected parts or groups of offcuts, with their maximum dimensions, shape and unit weight where known.
Identify the difficult section
Record the thickest wall or solid portion, polymer grade and reinforcement instead of relying on the apparent bulk of the piece.
Show the proposed load
Explain whether material arrives in individual pieces, tipped batches or from another process. Include the normal batch weight and time between loads.

Balance loading, reduction and removal

A larger compact reference is most useful when the handling route can keep pace with the cutting task. Assess the actual feed presentation and the space beneath the discharge before treating the shredder as an isolated machine purchase.

  1. Check the largest piece against the usable loading arrangement, including orientation and guarding clearance.
  2. Review whether preparation is needed to avoid awkward presentation or bridging before the cutters engage the material.
  3. Define the output condition needed for collection, conveying or subsequent reduction and examine a representative sample.
  4. Include the time and space needed to exchange collection containers or transfer material onward.

Separate a larger compact build from a two-stage process

The FY-SS01-400 lists a 4 kW drive and Ø180 × 15 mm cutters. The 500 changes both the drive reference and cutter geometry; the 7.5 kW rating alone cannot determine the processing rate. The FY-SS01-500-2S is an integrated upper/lower arrangement with separate drives. Select that route only when the process review calls for a secondary reduction stage.

Plan how bulkier scrap reaches and leaves the machine

Describe normal and maximum piece size, shape, thickness and material consistency. Review manual or mechanical loading, the space around the hopper and the collection or transfer arrangement below the machine. For bulky mixed waste beyond a compact workflow, compare the FY-SS02 platform through the series links below.

Send the required processing amount as a project target, along with the operating pattern and acceptance method. It is not a proven capacity derived from motor power. For branched moulding waste, use the sprue and runner checklist.

Make service access part of the floor plan

The operating layout should show a clear route for incoming scrap, removal of output and planned maintenance. Confirm the supplied arrangement and drawing before fixing the surrounding conveyors, containers or platforms.

  • Identify which hopper, discharge and handling equipment belongs to the machine supply and which parts are provided by the site.
  • Review cutter access, component-removal space and lifting or handling needs from the final drawing rather than the model number.
  • Match inspection and cleaning routines to reinforcement, dirt and foreign objects in the real feed, using the machine-specific isolation procedure.

FY-SS01-500 Compact Shredder — practical questions

When should I move from the 500 review to FY-SS02?

Review the heavy-duty platform when feed becomes bulky, tough, mixed or highly variable beyond a manageable production-scrap workflow. Show the difficult material and its handling method so the choice follows the task rather than only a larger drive.

When is the 500-2S worth comparing?

Compare the integrated two-stage route when the process requires initial reduction followed by another cutting stage within the machine. Define the intended output and downstream use before deciding whether that arrangement is useful.

Can I plan the collection bin from the feed dimensions?

No. Feed dimensions do not establish discharge height, access or collection clearance. Obtain the installation drawing and show the intended bin or transfer equipment in the layout review.
