Scrap metal shredder machine is one of the most commonly used crushing machines in metal recycling plants. It is designed to shred scrap metal into smaller pieces, making it easier for sorting, transportation, and smelting.
Shuliy Machinery’s metal shredders are equipped with high-strength alloy blades, wear-resistant liners, and heavy-duty gear reducers. They can process various types of metal scrap with capacities ranging from 500 kg/h to 8 t/h, suitable for small recycling workshops and large metal recycling centers. Some models can be fitted with a screen to control the output size, and diesel engines are available for areas with unstable or no electricity supply.

What Is a Scrap Metal Shredder Machine?
A metal scrap crusher is a single-shaft or double-shaft shredding machine that uses rotating blades to shear, tear, and squeeze large pieces of metal into smaller blocks or strips. Compared with traditional crushers, it is capable of handling irregularly shaped and bulky materials such as car shells, steel bars, aluminum profiles, and drums, while offering high shredding efficiency and lower maintenance costs.
Materials That Can Be Shredded
Our scrap metal shredder can handle a wide range of materials, not just metals:
- Ferrous metals: scrap steel, scrap iron, car frames, rebar, stamping parts
- Non-ferrous metals: aluminum profiles, aluminum cans, copper pipes, stainless steel
- Other materials: waste appliance shells, paint buckets, bicycles, motorcycle shells, plastic pallets, wooden pallets, PET bottles, Woven bags, cardboard, scrap tires, etc.
This versatility allows recycling plants to process different materials on the same equipment and improve overall equipment utilization.

Capable of Forming a Complete Metal Crushing and Sorting Line
This metal shredder can be used as a standalone machine or integrated with a metal crusher, eddy current separator, metal scrap polishing machine, and other equipment to form a complete metal crushing and sorting line. Through shredding, crushing, separation, and surface treatment processes, different metal materials can be effectively separated and recovered, improving overall processing efficiency and output quality.
In aluminum break (thermal break aluminum profile) recycling applications, the shredder can also be combined with relevant separation equipment to form an aluminum break crushing and sorting line. This configuration enables efficient separation of aluminum and plastic insulation strips, providing stable and reliable pre-treatment for downstream recycling and reuse. The complete line can be flexibly configured according to material characteristics and capacity requirements, making it suitable for a wide range of metal recycling scenarios.
