Abstract

The article is devoted to the calculation and verification of the shredding chamber of a two-shaft shredder for crushing of concrete, rubber, plastic and wood. In this work a model study of the shredding chamber of such type of shredder has been done. The studies of the mechanical load and behavior of the shredding chamber have been conducted through solving the equations describing the mechanical processes under operating conditions by the finite element method. For this purpose, a three-dimensional geometric model of the bottom of the chamber has been generated, which is discretized to a planned network of finite elements in the programming environment of ANSYS MECHANICAL APDL.
