Complete Set of Commonly Used Metal Recycling Equipment

Complete Set of Commonly Used Metal Recycling Equipment (From Whole Material → Crushing → Sorting → Packaging: Complete Process) Classified by process flow for easy understanding, suitable for scrap car, scrap steel, scrap iron, aluminum, copper, and offcut recycling plants:

I. Crushing and Shredding Equipment (Front-End Main Material Processing)
Dual-Shaft Metal Shredder
Directly shreds and breaks down entire scrapped cars, frames, sheet metal, aluminum cans, scrap profiles, and large metal items.
Single-Shaft Shredder
Processes lightweight materials, metal offcuts, and mixed plastic and metal materials.
Metal Crusher (Hammer/Vortex)
Further breaks down shredded materials into granules, breaks down paint and impurities, and purifies scrap steel and aluminum.
Shearing Machine (Alligator Shears/Gantry Shears)
Shears thick steel plates, channel steel, I-beams, rebar, and heavy scrap metal into smaller pieces for easier subsequent processing.

II. Sorting and Separation Equipment (Separating Iron, Aluminum, Copper, and Plastic)
Magnetic Separator (Drum Magnetic Separator, Suspended Magnetic Separator)
Strong magnets attract iron and steel from mixed materials, separating non-ferrous metals.
Eddy Current Separator
Sortes non-ferrous metals such as aluminum, copper, zinc, and stainless steel, separating them from plastic and glass impurities.
Gravity Separator / Air Separator
Separates dust, plastic, foam, and light impurities by weight and airflow.
Bouncing Separator
Separates metal materials into different sizes through layering.

III. Compression and Forming Equipment (Convenient for Storage, Transportation, and Sales)
Horizontal Hydraulic Metal Baler
Compresses thin scrap steel, sheet metal, automotive shreds, and aluminum shavings into square bales, saving space, facilitating transportation, and easy collection by steel mills.
Vertical Baler
Bails small materials, scraps, and aluminum cans, suitable for small and medium-sized recycling plants.
Metal Briquetting Machine
Compresses iron filings, aluminum filings, copper filings, and powdered metal into high-density round/square blocks, reducing oxidation and increasing premium value.

IV. Conveying Auxiliary Equipment (Essential for Production Lines)
Belt Conveyors, Chain Conveyors
Automatic feeding and material conveying between different devices, eliminating the need for manual handling.
Vibrating Feeders
Provide uniform feeding, prevent blockages, and ensure stable operation of shredders and crushers.
Drum Screens/Vibrating Screens
Grade metal materials by size, separating them into large, medium, and small particles.

V. Other Supporting Equipment
Forklifts, Overhead Cranes, Silos, Dust Collection Equipment (Pulse Jet Dust Collector), Hydraulic Station, Electrical Control System.
