The Plastic Basket Fruit Basket Crusher is a specialized crushing equipment engineered to efficiently reduce plastic fruit baskets, vegetable crates, and similar plastic containers into uniform fragments. Its robust structure features a high-torque motor paired with a set of interlocking blades, designed to handle the rigid and semi-rigid plastic materials commonly used in these baskets—including PP (polypropylene), PE (polyethylene), and composite plastics with reinforcing fibers. The machine’s crushing chamber is optimized with a tapered inlet and curved walls to prevent material jamming, ensuring continuous operation even when processing baskets with metal handles, labels, or residual food debris. It serves as a critical pre-processing tool in plastic recycling facilities, transforming bulky plastic baskets into manageable pieces that facilitate easier transportation, storage, and downstream processing such as washing and pelletizing.
Parameter | Specification |
Crushing Capacity | 300 - 800 kg/h (varies by plastic thickness: 300kg/h for 5mm thick baskets; 800kg/h for 1mm thin crates) |
Motor Power | 11kW - 30kW (variable frequency drive included) |

High-Efficiency Crushing: The unique staggered blade arrangement (4 upper blades + 6 lower blades) delivers a crushing efficiency of 95% or higher, minimizing unprocessed material residues even for irregularly shaped baskets.
Anti-Jamming Design: Equipped with a torque sensor that automatically reverses the blade rotation when a jam is detected, reducing downtime by 40% compared to conventional crushers without this feature.
Durable Construction: The crushing chamber is made of 16mm thick manganese steel (Mn13) with wear-resistant liners, resistant to abrasion from rigid plastic materials and extending service life by 2-3 years.
Easy Maintenance: Blades can be replaced without disassembling the entire machine using a quick-release mechanism, reducing maintenance time to less than 30 minutes per replacement.
Noise Reduction: Integrated soundproofing insulation reduces operating noise to 75 - 85 dB, compliant with workplace noise regulations.
Widely applied in:
Plastic Recycling Plants: Processing post-consumer plastic baskets and crates for subsequent pelletizing into recycled PP/PE granules.
Agricultural Waste Management: Crushing discarded fruit and vegetable baskets from farms, markets, and distribution centers to reduce landfill volume.
Retail and Logistics Centers: Handling waste plastic containers generated during product transportation, storage, and display (e.g., supermarket produce crates).
Municipal Waste Facilities: Reducing the volume of plastic basket waste by 60 - 70% for efficient disposal or recycling.
Customizable Solutions: Offer tailored blade configurations based on the specific plastic types (PP, PE, or composites) of your baskets, with optional serrated blades for fibrous plastics ensuring optimal crushing performance.
Energy-Saving Technology: Integrated variable frequency drives adjust motor speed based on material input, reducing power consumption by 15 - 20% during low-load operations.
Global Certification: Compliant with CE, ISO 9001, and OSHA standards, ensuring safe and reliable operation in international markets.
24/7 Technical Support: Provide round-the-clock assistance for installation, troubleshooting, and maintenance, with spare parts available for next-day delivery in major regions.
Cost-Effective Packages: Include optional accessories such as magnetic separators (to remove metal contaminants) and conveyor systems at discounted bundle prices.
