scrap metal crusher machines

With the rapid development of industrialization and urbanization, hundreds of millions of tons of scrap metals are produced every year around the world, including scrap steel, scrap aluminum, scrap copper, etc. If these metals are randomly piled up, they will not only occupy land, but also cause environmental pollution. Traditional manual sorting and smelting methods are inefficient and energy-intensive, and they urgently need automated and efficient treatment solutions.

Metal crushing and sorting equipment is a production line that integrates crushing, sorting, and recycling. It is mainly composed of heavy crushers, magnetic separators, eddy current separators, and conveying devices. The equipment can handle all kinds of scrap metals, such as automobile shells, home appliance shells, metal waste, etc. It has the advantages of large processing capacity, high sorting accuracy, and high degree of automation, which greatly improves the metal recovery rate and economic value.

Equipment workflow

Coarse crushing: Use a powerful crusher to crush large pieces of metal waste into smaller particles.

Magnetic separation: Use a magnetic separator to sort out ferromagnetic metals (such as steel).

Eddy current separation: Use eddy current technology to separate non-ferrous metals (such as aluminum and copper).

Fine sorting: Use airflow or vibrating screen to further purify metal particles to ensure recycling quality.

Packaging output: The sorted metals are compressed into blocks for easy transportation and reuse.

The equipment significantly improves the metal recovery rate, making the resource utilization rate of scrap metal reach more than 90%. Compared with traditional smelting, metal crushing and sorting can reduce energy consumption by more than 60%, reduce carbon emissions by 70%, and effectively alleviate resource shortages and environmental pollution. At the same time, the recovered metals can be directly used for recycling manufacturing, reducing the production costs of enterprises and creating considerable economic benefits.
