The ZCS Series Shredder Granulator Combination combines a shredder with a granulator in a single-spacing, size reduction system for the processing of plastic production waste. The shredder segment is equipped with a 400 mm diameter E-type rotor using ZERMA's proven knife and knife holder design. It is driven by a high-torque gear drive which, in comparison to a direct drive, also handles tougher input materials well. The large material hopper and the powerful horizontal pusher allow the processing of voluminous as well as heavier parts. The lower system segment consists of a 3-blade granulator rotor based on the GSC Series. The shredder and granulator are matched to work together ideally and in conjunction with an advanced control system ensuring smooth reliable operation.
The ZCS shredder granulator combination has been designed mainly for in-house use in plastics blow and injection molding applications, yet it can be adopted in other fields too. The small footprint allows the system to be integrated into existing factory workshops easily. Being a closed system also reduces the risk of contamination compared to using a conveyor belt in a traditional two-stage recycling system. The system is well-suited for large volume parts and thicker materials such as flush or purging.

The ZCS is a compact, space-saving plastics recycling system that combines a shredder and granulator in a single unit for efficient size reduction of plastic production waste.
It is designed for in-house recycling of plastic production waste from blowmolding and injection molding, including large volume parts, flush, purging, and thicker materials.
The shredder and granulator are matched and controlled through an advanced control system, while the high-torque gear drive and powerful horizontal pusher allow reliable processing of tough and voluminous materials.
The ZCS Shredder Granulator Combination is engineered with a compact, space-saving design that combines both shredding and granulating functions in a single unit. This eliminates the need for multiple machines and conveyor systems, significantly reducing the overall footprint in your production area.
