Used Complete Shredding and Processing Plant for Toner Cartridges and Electronic Waste

We are selling a shredding and processing system for printer toner cartridges. The system is also suitable for processing small and medium-sized waste electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE).It was only in operation for five years and has already been professionally dismantled.

This shredding and processing plant for toner cartridges was developed to efficiently separate valuable materials and reuse them in the recycling process. Through the use of high-performance machinery and intelligent separation technologies, this line enables the sustainable and economical recovery of metals and plastics from toner cartridges.The process consists of several stages: First, the modules are shredded, then sorted and finally separated in order to optimally process the different material fractions.

Machines and processes of the plant.

1. Feed dispenser with big bag unloading station – length 5 m

Used for the controlled emptying and dosing of material from big bags.

2. Inclined belt conveyor – length 10 m, conveying speed 0.7 m/s, power 4 kW

It transports the material at a speed of approximately 0.7 m/s to a defined height and is part of a recycling or processing line.

3. Shredding machine - Bomatic B1000D

The Bomatic B1000D is a high-performance four-shaft shredder with two 22 kW motors, specifically designed for shredding complex materials such as toner cartridges. Its robust construction and powerful drives enable efficient shredding of plastics, rubber, wood, and the metallic components of the cartridges.

Key features:

                • Powerful drives: Two 22 kW motors for high torque

                •  Four-shaft design: Uniform particle size and stable process

                •   Versatile applications: plastics, rubber, wood, metals

                •    Robust construction: For continuous operation under industrial conditions

Processing capacity (approx.):

                •  Toner: 1 t/h

                •  Passenger car tires: 3 t/h

                •  Plastic drums up to 240 l: 150 pcs/h

                •   Steel drums up to 220 l: 120 units/hour

                •   Production and industrial waste: 20 m³/h

                •   Paper/document shredding: 7 m³/h

4. Vibrating conveyor trough with screen (4 m, 2 × kW) – Efficient material separation

After crushing, the material is conveyed via a 4 m long vibrating conveyor trough with a screen, resulting in a separation into fine and coarse fractions.

• Automatic separation
• Vibration mechanism prevents blockages
•  Reduced dust generation

5. – Screw conveyor SD5003

Screw conveyors are used in recycling and processing plants for the uniform conveying of bulk materials, granules or flakes.

6. Rotarex R1200 – Vertical High-Performance Shredder

The Rotarex R1200 is a powerful vertical shredder with a 90 kW motor for the efficient processing of a wide variety of materials. It is particularly suitable for demanding applications such as electronic waste, MBT waste, slaughterhouse waste, toner, or horse manure.

Key features:

                • 90 kW drive for high torque

                • Vertical design for uniform particle sizes

                • Wide range of applications

                •  Adjustable discharge opening

                •  Robust industrial design

7. Conveyor belt - length 6.5 m, conveying speed 0.7 m/s

8. Magnetic separator – removal of ferrous metals

A high-performance magnetic separator reliably removes all ferrous metals such as steel parts, screws and ferromagnetic contaminants.

                •  Strong magnetic field

                •   Automatic cleaning

                •   Protection of downstream machinery

9. Non-ferrous metal separator (eddy current separator)

Separates aluminium, copper and brass from plastic fractions using eddy current technology.

                • Precise metal separation

                • Higher purity of recyclable materials

                •  High throughput

10. Filter system (extraction system)

The filter system is an integrated piping system for removing dust from the material, especially toner dust. The separated particles are collected and compacted in a big bag positioned below the hopper.

Exhaust air volume flow: 16,000 m³/h

9. ATEX explosion protection system

ATEX is a European directive for explosion protection (“ATmosphères EXplosibles”).

In the event of an explosion, extinguishing powder containers are activated by gas generators. A specially designed, reusable flap valve ensures rapid opening. The extinguishing powder is immediately introduced into the resulting explosion cloud and effectively suppresses the flame.

Advantages of the system:

                •Capsule mechanism for safe triggering

                • Electronic addressability

                • No maintenance-intensive explosives

                • Quick restart

                • Plug-and-play system

                • Increased safety when changing containers

                • Fast and cost-effective refilling

Advantages of the plant

                •  Efficient raw material recovery

                •  Sustainability and environmental protection

                •  Modular design

                •  Durable and reliable machines

This modern line enables efficient processing of toner modules and contributes to both environmental protection and cost optimization in the recovery of secondary raw materials.
