Designed for waste management facilities, municipal transfer stations, and recycling operations, the system processes mattresses, sofas, cabinets, tables, and chairs into smaller materials that are easier to transport, sort, and direct toward downstream recycling or alternative fuel production. Its integrated processing line consists of a metal chain plate conveyor, dual shaft shredder, magnetic separator, and belt conveyor.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBulky waste is loaded onto the metal chain plate conveyor, which elevates and feeds the material into the dual shaft shredder for size reduction. As the shredded material advances through the line, the magnetic separator extracts ferrous metals, including mattress springs and cabinet hardware, before the remaining material reaches the belt conveyor. The belt conveyor then transfers the processed waste to the next treatment or baling stage, maintaining continuous material flow instead of relying on batch processing.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAn integrated negative pressure dust collection system captures airborne particulate generated during shredding, while the intelligent control system coordinates the conveyors, shredder, and magnetic separator to minimize manual operator intervention.

shaft shredder processes bulky waste through low-speed, high-torque shearing. Two counter-rotating shafts equipped with interlocking cutting discs draw material inward and tear it apart between the shafts rather than relying on a single blade edge. This combined shearing and tearing action allows the machine to handle irregular items containing multiple material types. For example, a mattress made up of foam, textiles, and steel springs can be broken down without the material jamming issues that a single-shaft shredder or high-speed cutting system may encounter when processing the same waste.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFollowing size reduction, the magnetic separator extracts ferrous metals from the mixed shredded material using a fixed or belt-mounted magnet positioned above the material flow. As the shredded waste passes through the magnetic field, ferrous components such as mattress springs, hinges, and metal frame sections are attracted upward and removed from the material stream. Non-magnetic materials continue along the belt conveyor toward subsequent processing. This separation process recovers recyclable scrap metal without requiring manual sorting.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe negative pressure dust collection system draws air containing airborne particulate generated during shredding toward an extraction point. Rather than allowing dust to spread throughout the surrounding facility, the system captures it near the shredder's infeed and discharge areas. This source-level dust containment helps maintain a cleaner operating environment for personnel working around the processing line.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eBulky Waste Processing System - ToronBWS™ 100 Technical Specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"table\" border=\"1\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" width=\"419\"\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eComponent\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDescription\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFeeding Method\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMetal chain plate conveyor, inclined feed\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePrimary Reduction\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003edual shaft shredder\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMetal Recovery\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMagnetic separator (ferrous)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial Discharge\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBelt conveyor\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDust Control\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNegative pressure dust collection system\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eControl System\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eIntelligent\/automated control\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eProcessing Mode\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOne-pass shredding\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTell us what you're processing, testing, or measuring, and our team will help you find the right configuration.\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/shop.torontech.com\/pages\/contact\"\u003e Contact the Torontech team\u003c\/a\u003e for pricing and lead times. \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Torontech","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51367096254703,"sku":null,"price":100.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/5291\/9023\/files\/bulky-waste-processing-system-to_1.webp?v=1793374862","url":"https:\/\/shop.torontech.com\/products\/bulky-waste-processing-system-toronbws-100","provider":"Torontech","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
