LibreShred Lite
Compact. Open-source. Built for real recycling.
LibreShred Lite is a small-format plastic shredder designed for makers who want to close the loop. It turns failed 3D prints, supports, and scrap PLA or PETG into reusable flakes for extrusion or future processing.
The design focuses on strength and simplicity. A rigid frame, single-shaft cutting system, and modular construction make it easy to assemble, maintain, and upgrade. Start with the hand-crank version or integrate your own motor setup when you're ready.
Best for:
• 3D printing waste recycling
• Maker spaces and classrooms
• Small workshop use
• Closed-loop filament projects
Features:
• Compact bench-top footprint
• Optimized blade geometry for common print plastics
• Open-source, repairable design
• Modular components
