1. Yes, It Can Press Aluminum Chips
- Y83 briquetting machine is designed to press aluminum chips.
- Y83 series can process aluminum shavings, cast iron chips, steel chips, copper chips, and other metal chips.
- Produces dense cylindrical or square briquettes without adding any binder.
- Suitable for a wide range of metal chip types.
2. Cold Pressing Without Binder
- Uses hydraulic cold pressing technology to compress loose aluminum chips into compact briquettes.
- No heating, additive, or binder required.
- Helps reduce melting loss.
- Briquettes are easier to store, transport, and charge into the furnace.
3. Density Depends on Chip Type & Model
- Aluminum chip briquette density is generally lower than cast iron or steel chips.
- Typical aluminum briquette density may reach about 2 to 3 tons per cubic meter.
- Cast iron and steel chips can reach 5 to 6 tons/m³ or higher.
- Final density depends on chip shape, moisture, oil content, nominal force, and mold size.
4. Confirm Model & Configuration Before Ordering
- For export projects, confirm exact Y83 model, nominal force, briquette diameter, production rate, hydraulic system, PLC control mode, and CE documentation.
- If aluminum chips are long, oily, or very light, a wider hopper or pre‑treatment unit may be needed.
- Helps overseas customers match the machine with local smelting and recycling requirements.
