Scrap recycling - Import export

Process loose metal turnings into flowable chips. Scrap metal recycling system couples volume reduction with fluid separation to produce dry chips and reclaim 99% of valuable coolants and cutting oils. The ideal solution for scrap metal consisting of flowable chips and loose turnings

Industrial metal shredders for reducing light to moderate wads of metal turnings to flowable chips. Reduce volumes by shredding metal turnings into flowable chips for higher value in scrap metal recycling. PRAB’s industrial metal shredders are a safe and cost-effective way to process all types of steel turnings and other metalworking scrap. They use less space for storage prior to scrap metal recycling and provide safer work areas. Available as a system integrated unit for use with chip processing/scrap removal equipment or as a stand-alone unit for volume reduction at the source. The development of automated scrap removal systems begins with reducing the volume of metal turnings. Milling, turning, screw machining, and swiss machining operations all produce waste that varies in size, length, hardness, and configuration depending on the tool, operation, and material characteristics.

Superior dual ram compression technology for producing the industry’s densest metal scrap pucks. PRAB’s Dualpak™ Briquetting Machines increase the value of metal chips, loose turnings and swarf by compressing them into near solid, dry briquettes for scrap metal recycling to send to the recycler or feed to furnace. Unlike competing briquetting machines, the Dualpak™ uses two opposing hydraulic cylinders. These cylinders press metal equally from both sides, creating the driest, most compact scrap pucks on the market. Briquettes- or scrap pucks, are easy to re-melt, transport or store giving you more floor space, optimized container fill, cleaner shop and more value from the scrap dealer until a better price is available for scrap metal recycling. You’ll also maintain a cleaner, more environmentally friendly shop with a briquette press.

Large-volume scrap metal recycling in pre-wired, modular sections for installation in weeks. Complete, large-volume scrap removal systems for volume reduction, fluid separation, weighed transferring and load-out in automotive/transportation, aerospace, defense, heavy-industrial, and large tiered-supplier operations. Modular sections are skid-mounted, pre-wired, and designed specifically to simplify the installation process- allowing for maximum metal scrap processing within weeks. PRAB’s modular system reduces installation time and costs and provides portability and flexibility to meet changing plant requirements. Large-volume scrap collection and chip processing systems traditionally have taken months to install. Equipment comes in random order, floor layout takes time and labor resources, and electrical wiring and controls need to be installed and programmed.

Reduce low volume turnings to flowable chips- at the source. Continuous low volume metal scrap reduction at the source. Metal crushers are the economical solution for processing stringy and bulky turnings into flowable chips. This piece can be integrated into existing equipment or free-standing. PRAB’s automated scrap removal systems are designed for volume reduction of metal turnings. The comprehensive focus on chip processing provides metalworking companies with an automated, safe and cost-effective way to process all kinds of metal scrap. The first step in this operation is to create flowable chips from metal turnings with scrap handling equipment. The Horizontal Axis Crusher processes low volumes of stringy and bulky metal turnings. This scrap metal recycling equipment is typically mounted on a stand or heavy-duty cart which fits on the discharge of the conveyor off the machining center

Reduce metal turnings and bulky wads into shovel-grade chips with a vertical axis crusher. The PRAB vertical axis metal crusher provides continuous, positive feed operation for high volume scrap reduction on the plant floor. Nested wads of metal turnings take up valuable floor space, are a safety hazard and have reduced scrap metal recycling value due to added processing costs. The PRAB vertical axis crusher is one of the most effective pieces of scrap metal processing equipment for quickly and safely creating flowable, thumbnail-sized chips from wads of turnings. Turnings are fed into the crusher’s feed hopper either by self-dumping hoppers, a plant-wide conveyor system, or an automated dump system with standard barrels or chip carts. The crusher’s feed hopper housing -with fixed cast cutters and rotating cutter- then directs the material down into the fixed and rotating cutter rings, where the material is reduced to flowable thumbnail sized chips.
