Soft Material Cutter and Spiral Crusher Professional Guide

Soft Material Cutter vs. Spiral Crusher – How to Choose the Right Machine For processing textile scraps, films, bags, and other flexible materials, both the soft material cutter and the spiral crusher offer effective cutting solutions. The choice depends mainly on your material type and required output. For lower capacities, the soft material cutter is more cost-effective; for larger throughput or continuous operation, the spiral crusher provides higher efficiency and better durability.

These systems typically include a feeding conveyor, a spiral crushing unit, a discharge conveyor, and a wind-cooling chiller. Cooling is important for the spiral crusher, as its shredding chamber generates heat during operation, especially when cutting plastics. The soft material cutter is ideal for flexible and lightweight materials such as clothes, films, woven bags, nylon fibers, polyester fibers, and fiberglass. The spiral crusher also handles soft materials and performs well with textiles, woven bags, agricultural films, PP packing straps, and pet pads, though it has limited testing on long filament materials.

Structurally, the soft cutter uses multiple thin blades operating in a rolling-cut method. It produces fluffy output with no heat increase but is more prone to blade damage when encountering zippers or small stones. The spiral crusher adopts a design similar to a double-shaft shredder, using thicker cutters that provide stronger resistance to impurities. Its forced-feeding spiral structure compresses and cuts materials, resulting in denser output with noticeable temperature rise due to friction—sometimes creating a slight semi-plasticizing effect.

Both systems support automated feeding control, stable cutting, and easy integration with downstream processes. Our engineering team can evaluate your raw materials, required capacity, and final output needs to recommend the most suitable configuration. Our professional technology and considerate service will provide you with the most reasonable personal solution.
