Metal Recovery Enhancement Through Swarf Briquetting

A swarf briquetting press enhances metal recovery through several key mechanisms that address common challenges in handling and processing metal waste. By compressing loose swarf into dense, uniform briquettes, the machine significantly reduces the loss of small or fine particles that often escape during traditional handling and transportation.

		These tiny metal fragments, which might otherwise be discarded or lost, are securely contained within the briquettes, ensuring they are included in subsequent recycling processes.
	

Contaminant Removal

The compaction process helps remove contaminants that can hinder effective metal recovery. Oils, coolants, or other fluids present in swarf are often expelled during compression, leaving behind purer metal briquettes.

✓Purification Benefits:

Reduces need for extensive cleaning during recycling
Minimizes metal loss during preprocessing stages
Improves overall purity of recycled material

Processing Efficiency

Briquetting improves the efficiency of transportation and feeding into smelting or recycling equipment. Loose swarf tends to be bulky and irregular, making it difficult to handle uniformly.

✓Operational Advantages:

Compact briquettes flow consistently through systems
Minimizes jams in processing equipment
Ensures steady supply to recycling operations
Reduces downtime in recycling facilities

Material Preservation

The dense structure of briquettes reduces oxidation during storage and transportation. Exposed loose swarf is prone to rusting or degradation, which can lower its recyclable value.

		Briquettes protect the metal from environmental exposure, preserving its quality and ensuring a higher yield of recoverable metal when processed.
