Recycling

Recycling Solutions

Recycling plants subject drive systems to shock loads, contaminants and continuous heavy-duty cycling. Powercon's crushers, shredders and conveyor gearboxes are engineered with reinforced housings and high-torque ratings to process plastics, metals and mixed waste reliably, day after day.

Conveyors

Heavy-duty gear motors drive belt conveyors that transport sorted waste, shredded material and recyclables between processing stages in recycling facilities.

  • S5 continuous-duty rated for 24/7 plants
  • Shock-load resistant gear teeth
  • Heavy-duty scraper-compatible motor mounts
  • Corrosion-resistant paint and coatings
Mixers
2/4

Mixers

High-torque geared drives operate industrial mixers that blend recycled plastic granules, rubber crumb and additive compounds for uniform material quality.

  • High-torque low-speed output for dense compounds
  • Dual-shaft mixer drive configurations
  • Overload clutch protection for jam scenarios
  • Easy-access grease points for maintenance
Crushers
3/4

Crushers

Robust gearboxes transmit the extreme torque needed by jaw, cone and impact crushers that reduce large waste volumes into processable particle sizes.

  • Extreme torque ratings for primary crushing
  • Hydraulic motor-compatible gearbox options
  • Reinforced housing for impact resistance
  • Integrated torque-limiting protection
Shredders
4/4

Shredders

Low-speed, high-torque shredder gearboxes tear through plastics, tyres and mixed waste, engineered for shock loads and continuous heavy-duty operation.

  • Ultra-low-speed high-torque output
  • Dual-counter-rotating shaft drive
  • Self-cleaning rotor options
  • Thick-walled cast iron housings
