Abstract
Recently, rubber crumb, 1–3 mm in size, obtained from processing rubber products in horizontal shredders, is currently widely used as a secondary raw material. In this case, the material interacts with only two or three cutting elements, which necessitates the use of multistage shredding. The design of a vertical shredder with a stator having wedge-shaped grooves, with a vertical rotor, with a variable arrangement of adjusting and cutting knives with different numbers of teeth is proposed. An adequate regression equation has been obtained for the dependence of the maximum amount of crumbs in the range of 1-3 mm on the main factors ‒ the thickness of the adjusting knife and the increase in the number of cutting knives. Studies have shown that to obtain 70–75 % of a 1–3 mm rubber crumb, it is advisable to use a rotor with 7 cutting knives and 130 rpm, whereas with a 2 mm thick adjusting knife, a 3 mm cuboid fraction of the finished product prevails, and with a 10 mm thickness, 1 mm ragged particles predominate.
