Design of Shredder and textile waste clothes recycling machine

ABSTRACT Recycling is one the most important actions that have both environmental and economic benefits and recycling waste clothes is the one type of material recycling. This paper presents the design of Shredder and textile waste clothes recycling machine that used to convert waste and old clothes to a new product that it can be used again. Our design consists of three parts, the first part is shredder machine that cut waste clothes, and is consist of the three main parts; they are system drive, a shaft with seven blades rotating cutter and hopper. The second part is flat belt conveyor that used to transfer cut waste clothe from shredder to the textile machine, and the capacity of the belt depend on the area, volume, and density. The third part is textile machines that textile cut clothes to a useful product such as (fabric, nonwoven, fiber, yarn, rag, and etc…) by cylindrical card or (taker-in) roller that consists of many teeth, the quality and size of the final product depend on the teeth angle.
