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.

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

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

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.

Move or dump more scrap with heavy-duty dumpers and industrial carts. PRAB’s line of industrial carts and automatic dumpers help move wet or dry metal chips, turnings and die scrap, safely and easily to and from scrap metal equipment. Customize the model and capacity cart you need with tow links, dumping frames, pouring baffles (contains cutting fluids), drain plugs, drain racks and casters designed to meet your floor conditions. Mechanical or automatic hydraulic dumpers help simplify the process of unloading carts. Improves housekeeping with efficient one-person operation Minimizes scrap handling costs Reduces production downtime

Reduce volumes of large bundles and stringy turnings. This scrap metal equipment delivers dry, shovel-grade chips and reclaims up to 99% of valuable coolants and cutting oils

Quiet, efficient transfer of all types of machining scrap with the in-floor scrap conveyor. Convey all types of metal chips, fines and turnings, wet or dry bushy wads, and tramp metal solids, in a liquid-tight trough. Ideal for high-volume coolant-flow applications.

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.
