Non-ferrous metals - Import export

ERDWICH hammer mills are the answer to the challenge of selectively shredding hard and brittle materials. Then again, ERDWICH hammer mills also take the pelletisation of rubbery materials – as preparation for downstream separation systems – in their stride. A tough customer? Just so. ERDWICH hammer mills are especially suited to metal, electrical and electronic scrap or swarf from steel or aluminium – and many other materials besides. Simple adjustability during operation also makes short work of the pelletisation of non-ferrous metals. The final fragment size is variable and can be changed during operation. That’s also a great example of the product’s flexibility in catering to a wide range of applications. For the selective challenges in life. ERDWICH hammer mills.

Zinner has a comprehensive programme of HSS and solid carbide boring tools for non-ferrous metals. The various systems enable the user to acquire the right boring tools for his application from a wide range of tools.

Machining non-ferrous metals is really only different from the normal machining of steel by the use of special cutting tips and coatings.

ZINNER PKD or highly positively polished cutting inserts are used for machining aluminium and copper. Glass-fibre reinforced materials are machined with PKD or coated PKD tools. Diamond tools are ideally suited for the high gloss turning of non-ferrous metals.

Technical information: PCD, CBN and diamond coated milling cutters are best used for the machining of non-ferrous metals, cast materials and special materials. Polycrystalline diamond (PCB) is a synthetic, extremely hard composite mass of diamond particles randomly oriented in a metal matrix. It is manufactured under high pressure and temperatures from selected diamond particles. Because of its fundamental hardness, CBN makes it possible to machine steels with hardnesses up to 70 HRC. The ability of CBN to withstand high speeds and feed rates, along with its good tool life, stable inserts and a precision milling machine guarantee unequalled process reliability, performance and cost effectiveness.

CBN (cubic boron nitride) is the next hardest material after diamonds. When properly used, tools made from CBN exhibit considerably less wear than other materials. Cutting inserts or even VHM tools can be equipped with CBN. Technical application: Hardened tool steels with hardnesses greater than 55 HRC or high speed steels (HSS) can be machined without problems using CBN. Case hardened steels and chilled cast iron can also be machined with CBN. Non-ferrous metals are totally unsuitable for CBN; diamond tools are needed for these.
