Yes, maybe a video will help me and others to understand more about the area calculation because I still confused about how exactly we determine the worst case of possible cutting area (the maximum size of plastic that we could possibly put in there). I still think that this has to follow the shredder geometry of some sort, since we can’t just…[Read more]

Halo berkahabadu, saya saat ini berada di daerah Pasuruan, Jawa Timur. Kira2 ada masukan atau pendapat lain tidak ya terkait postingan saya di atas?
Terimakasih.:)

As for why the blade thickness is important, that is because the plastic (or scrap) to be cut must have a dimension more than the blade thickness. If less, then the plastic (or scrap) will be “pushed away” instead of getting cut because It will receive no resistance force (as explained from the thread Calculations Required for Shredder that the p…[Read more]

Hi, thefranky

I will try to answer your question.

1. The whole purpose of this calculation is to define the required horsepower, so you could determine which motor you gonna use. In turn, you won’t make a machine with insufficient power (the machine is not gonna work) or overpowered machine (the machine is redundant and cost higher than It…[Read more]

Hey, I wanna ask. You said that the cutting area is found by the cross-section area of the material of cut that the shredder blade contacts. Is this actually means the product of blade thickness and thickness of the material/height of material?

Or, is It means that the cross-section is the area of cut that I want to make, regardless of the k…[Read more]
