Hey,
Cool that you downloaded this Info folder :).
Before browsing the folders or building anything just be aware
that your shredder will likely have different sizes and power.
The documentation here in this folder is quite old and we built this shredder several years ago. Some links in the BOM are also not referenced anymore to a available product.
The basic shredder design is from precious plastic. Check them out if you haven’t heard from them so far. They do amazing stuff :)
What we added in this build is more automation to the shredder.
We had problems with the belts slipping when the shredder got too much load.
Now the hall sensor in combination with a magnet on the big pulley, measures the time between two rotations and therefore knows when the shredder is working on the limit or not. The screw rotation is then switched off or on.
There is a lot more to do better from the programming point-of-view. Please forgive that the program is not very sophisticated ;D.
The following link brings you to our drop box with more pictures and the program.

Be sure to know what you are doing before you start with anything,
or find someone who can help you :),
