Product Overview
The Haofeng online shredder, also known as the edge‑material online shredder, centralized shredder, or thermoforming machine online shredder, is a **real-time online crushing and recycling device** specially designed to support plastic thermoforming and vacuum forming production processes. The equipment can be directly connected to Haofeng’s full range of thermoforming and vacuum forming machines, including the SEZ-1220, SEPW-700, HFZ-7260, and SE-1211 models, and is dedicated to processing edge material, die‑cut frame skeletons, and batch defective products generated during production, creating an all‑automatic closed-loop production system of “instant crushing—air‑conveyed recycling—immediate reuse.”
The entire machine features a fully enclosed, dust‑free structure, equipped with synchronous traction, shear‑type shredding, high‑pressure air‑conveyed material collection, and an automated material return control system. It can be linked to the thermoforming host for synchronized start/stop and operation, eliminating the need for manual handling and waste accumulation in storage. This effectively addresses the pain points of traditional offline shredding—such as heavy dust, high labor costs, raw material waste, workshop clutter, and secondary pollution—achieving a raw material utilization rate of over 95%. It is compatible with various conventional and biodegradable sheet materials, including PP, PET, PS, PLA, CPET, and more, making it a core supporting device for reducing costs, increasing efficiency, and achieving standardized, dust‑free production on plastic thermoforming lines.

Compatible Haofeng models: SEZ-1220×720, SEPW-700×800, HFZ-7260, SE-1211—all series of thermoforming/vacuum forming equipment
Core functions: Online synchronous shredding, fully enclosed dust‑free operation, automated air‑conveyed material collection, instant blending and reuse of waste, and synchronized operation linked to the host machine
Core value: Raw material utilization rate exceeding 95%, complete labor savings, no waste accumulation, dust‑free clean production, and closed-loop zero‑pollution recycling
Structure and Workflow
1. Automatic synchronous traction feeding
The equipment connects directly to the waste outlet of the thermoforming machine, automatically drawing in edge material, mesh frame skeletons, and defective products via pressure rollers and traction rollers. The traction speed is synchronized in real time with the thermoforming host, ensuring smooth operation without blockages, pulling, or interruptions, suitable for continuous, nonstop mass production conditions.
2. High‑precision shear‑type shredding chamber (core component)
It employs an alloy steel moving blade and fixed blade combination, utilizing a shear‑shredding principle that delivers low noise, long wear resistance, and uniform particle size. Equipped with replaceable screens, the particle size is adjustable between 3–12 mm, allowing precise control over returned material granularity; its forced feeding design completely eliminates bridging, blade entanglement, and material jams, making it ideal for 24‑hour continuous production.
3. Fully enclosed air‑conveyed recycling system
Comprising a high‑pressure blower, cyclone collector, and hopper, this forms a complete closed‑loop recycling chain. The shredded material is conveyed entirely by airflow, remaining sealed throughout the process—no contact with the ground, no dust, and no secondary pollution. Recycled material can be directly fed into extruders or sheet‑making machines, instantly blended with new material for reuse, thus closing the production material loop.
4. Intelligent linked electrical control system
The electrical control system synchronizes start/stop operations with the thermoforming machine, running in full coordination without separate manual intervention. Featuring overload protection and automatic fault alarms, it allows one‑button start/stop, boasting a high degree of intelligence, stable and reliable operation, and suitability for extended mass production runs.
