Overview
The Drum Pulper is the heart of a modern waste paper recycling line. Unlike conventional high-speed pulpers, it uses a gentle, low-speed rotating drum to disintegrate waste paper (OCC/AOCC) through gravity and impact. Our Drum Pulper is engineered for mills processing 500–2000+ TPD, ensuring cleaner pulp and lower operational overhead.
Key Technical Advantages
-
Superior Fiber Integrity: The gentle “falling and impact” action breaks down paper without cutting the fibers, resulting in higher paper strength for your finished products.
-
Automatic Impurity Removal: Contaminants like plastics, tapes, and wires remain intact and are discharged at the end of the drum, preventing them from breaking into microplastics that clog downstream filters.
-
Energy Efficiency: Operating at just 5-10 RPM, this system cuts power consumption by 40-50% compared to hydraulic systems.
-
Continuous Operation: Designed for 24/7 high-load production with minimal maintenance downtime.

FAQ
Q1: What are the main advantages of a Drum Pulper over a traditional Hydrapulper?
A: Compared to a hydrapulper, the drum pulper offers superior fiber protection and significant energy savings (up to 50%). Its gentle gravity-based disintegration ensures that contaminants like plastics and tapes aren’t shredded, making them easier to remove and resulting in cleaner pulp.
Q2: How does the “nested” internal structure improve maintenance?
A: Our 2026 design features a modular screening drum and rotor assembly. By nesting the rotor inside the screening section within the main body, we allow for easier access during routine inspections and faster replacement of wear parts, significantly reducing unplanned downtime.
