The nuts and bolts of metal briquetting: Volume
reduction and the extraction of valuable secondary
raw materials. Thereby the value is not limited only
to the eventual recycling ability of the metal but
also makes possible, likewise, the
recovery of
expensive cooling lubricants.
With WEIMA briquette presses all accumulated metal
waste from the metal processing industry, for
example, aluminium fractions, shavings or other
waste from chips or dust forming metals can be
compressed into highly compacted briquettes. During
the briquetting process, if waste oils and emulsions
are present, they will be separated, which
subsequently can be redirected to the cooling and
lubricating cycle. Freed of oil and emulsion
residues, the briquetting
material can then be redirected to the raw material
cycle and does not need to be disposed of as
hazardous waste. This leads to a
considerable
reduction in costs and the environment is not
burdened. In contrast to loose material, briquettes
decline during the melting process. This results in
significantly reduced residue and lower slag build
up. In addition the danger of spontaneous combustion
of specific materials such as magnesium, is
substantially reduced and thereby
increasing
operational safety. |
WEIMA briquette presses can be specially configured
for the processing of metals. With a variety of
throughput rates and briquette designs, a suitable
machine is available for your purposes also. WEIMA is also
the only manufacturer who have a combi
installation in their programme, with which metal
can be chipped and then briquetted in the same
facility. This saves on valuable production space
and minimizes the cost. Simply ask our marketing
team, we will be happy to advise you.
