{"product_id":"sweed-ce-517xhd-pallet-strapping-chopper","title":"Sweed CE-517XHD Strapping Chopper - Heaviest Duty Industrial Chopper","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Sweed CE-517XHD is the most powerful machine in the Sweed range - built for companies processing large volumes of strip iron, heavy-gauge wire and other demanding linear materials that would overwhelm a lighter chopper. Like the CE-513, it features a 12mm sheet steel housing for aggressive industrial environments, but the 517XHD adds compressed air-activated feeding and a rotating knife locked between two solid flywheels for maximum cutting power.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhere the CE-513 handles light cables and standard packing wire, the CE-517XHD goes further ... it is specifically equipped to process high-tensile baling wire, piano wire and solid aluminium and copper rods. Strip iron up to 50mm wide and 3mm thick is well within its capability. If your facility deals with the toughest scrap materials on a regular basis, this is the machine you need.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe feed mechanism is activated by compressed air via a foot switch, keeping the operator’s hands clear of the infeed at all times. A magnetic starter prevents unexpected restarting after a power loss. The rotating knife is locked between two solid flywheels, providing the extra cutting power needed for heavy-gauge materials without sacrificing consistency of cut.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eChopped pieces are reduced to approximately 90mm lengths - compact enough to store in a standard bin and straightforward to transport for recycling. Every kilogram of PET recycled into new strap material saves up to 75% of the CO₂ cost of virgin PET production ... equivalent to 4.3kg of CO₂, or driving a car for 40km, per kilogram recycled.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTechnical specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMotor\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3.73kW, 380–415V three phase\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFeed rate\u003c\/strong\u003e: 27m\/min\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCut length\u003c\/strong\u003e: ±90mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFeed opening\u003c\/strong\u003e: 168mm x 41mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting knives\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 fixed + 1 rotating, locked between 2 solid flywheels\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHousing\u003c\/strong\u003e: 12mm sheet steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFeed mechanism\u003c\/strong\u003e: compressed air, foot switch activated\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAir requirements\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2 CFM at 60psi\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSafety\u003c\/strong\u003e: magnetic starter (prevents restart after power loss)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: approx. 760kg\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCertification\u003c\/strong\u003e: CE approved\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMaterials Capacity\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStrip iron up to 50mm wide x 3mm thick (various gauges)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh-tensile baling wire\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePiano wire\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSolid aluminium and copper rods\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSteel banding up to 38mm x 1.2mm with clip\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBand saw blades up to 38mm x 1.2mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTube and pipe\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExtrusions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eJacketed and non-jacketed wire and cable\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAlso available in the Sweed range\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/boxdepot.ie\/products\/ce-300\" title=\"Sweed CE-300 Strapping Chopper\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eSweed CE-300\u003c\/a\u003e — entry-level, single phase, plastic and steel strapping\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/boxdepot.ie\/products\/ce-450ddx\" title=\"Sweed 450 DDX Strapping Chopper\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eSweed 450 DDX\u003c\/a\u003e — mid-range, bestselling PET banding chopper\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/boxdepot.ie\/products\/ce510xhd\" title=\"Sweed 510 XHD Strapping Chopper\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eSweed 510 XHD\u003c\/a\u003e — heavy duty, hinged feedworks, slitter trim capability\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/boxdepot.ie\/products\/ce513\" title=\"Sweed CE-513 Strapping Chopper\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eSweed CE-513\u003c\/a\u003e — industrial, 12mm steel housing, pneumatic feed option\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eThe right strapping chopper model depends on your material size, type, and volume.
