How to remove aluminum fins from copper tubing?

As we all know, air conditioner and car radiators contain metals copper aluminum and iron which have big value to recycle, but these radiators is hard to separate manually. How do you remove aluminum fins from copper tubing? Today I will introduce two mechanical ways to remove aluminum fins from copper tubing.

Scrap radiators and the separated copper aluminum & iron

The first way is using stripping type radiator separator machine to remove aluminum fins from copper tubing. It can stripe the aluminum fins off copper tubing and keep the good shape of copper tubes. This machine can recycle both aluminum fins and copper tubes. Stripping type radiator separator machine is a single-unit design with small land occupy size, easy to operate with safety control. The scarp radiators could be pre-cutted by an auxiliary equipment- radiator cutting machine.

The second way is using copper aluminum radiator recycling machine to remove aluminum fins from copper tubing. It is a complete production line including shredding, crushing, magnetic baffle separator machine, magnetic separation and air separation. By the whole process, aluminum fins and copper tubing and iron will be shredded and crushed to small particles and separated. This production line adopts fully automatic PLC control with vacuum loading and pulse dust collection system. Fully automatic, high efficiency and dust-free.

Copper aluminum radiator recycling machine

There are some differences between the two recycling ways. First, the copper aluminum radiator separator machine can recycle radiators which are in good shapes and well-formed. But copper aluminum radiator recycling machine can recycle all kinds of radiators no matter whether deformed or large shapes. Second, copper aluminum radiator recycling machine has bigger capacity and efficiency than copper aluminum radiator separator machine. Third, the copper tubes and aluminum separated by copper aluminum radiator separator machine can keep the good shapes, the copper and aluminum separated by copper aluminum radiator recycling machine are pieces. Customers can choose a suitable machine for their radiator recycling business.
