3D video of copper cable wire recycling machine running process

Copper cable wire recycling machine is used to separate copper and plastic from scrap automobile wires, miscellaneous wires and industrial cables, ect. Because the recovered copper particles are like rice grains, it is also called copper wire granulator machine.

From the above video we can see the entire production process of copper cable wire recycling machine. What we see is a set of fully configured copper cable wire recycling machines, mainly a shredder, a crusher, a self-unloading magnetic separator, an airflow separators, an electrostatic separators, and pulse dust system.

Shredder:

The first is to bring the raw materials to the double-shaft shredder for shredding, and the obtained materials are small pieces of about 2-5cm. The main function of the shredder is to pretreat the wires, to deal with some thicker wires that are not easy to separate from each other, or mixed miscellaneous wires with plugs.

Tip: If you don't have space constraints, you can use the feeding conveyor to save labor.

Shredder

Crusher:

The shredded material enters the crusher for crushing into granules. There is a screen at the bottom of our crusher to control the size of the granules. The granules is determined according to the diameter of the wire, and the size of the screen is also based on the diameter of the wire.

Tip: If there is iron in your material, you can add a self-unloading magnetic separator to select the iron in it.

Crusher

Transporting:

There are two ways of transporting from the crusher to the air separator, one is transported by wind, and the other is transported by belt. What is shown in the video is wind transportation, which is fully enclosed transportation, and the overall appearance is very clean. It also reduces the leakage of material and ash, and can also reduce the occupied area.

Airflow separator:

According to the principle of airflow suspension, the airflow separator suspends and separates copper and plastics with the same particle size due to the different forces received by different weights, and then separates them.

After sorting by the airflow separator, the separation rate is about 97-98%, and there will be 2-3 points of copper loss. If you want to recycle the copper at these 2-3 points, it is recommended that you add an electrostatic separator to the plastic outlet.

Electrostatic separator:

Electrostatic separator is mainly based on the different charging properties of metals and non-metals. When it goes out, the opposite-sex electricity of the non-metallic strip will be stuck on the roller and scraped off. After adding electrostatic separator, the recovery rate reaches more than 99.9%. After electrostatic separator, the recovery rate can reach more than 99.9%. The material sorted by the airflow separator is 1-4mm, and the material below 1mm can be separated by electrostatic separator. This is why electrostatics can improve sorting efficiency.

Electrostatic separator:

Tip: If your budget is limited, but you also want to recycle the copper lost in the plastic, you can also add a linear vibrating screen at the plastic outlet. Make the screen smaller to recover the copper from the plastic.

Pulse dust system:

During the whole process, we have an automatic dust removal system here, and we use pulse dust system for dust removal. The pulse dust system will be equipped with an air compressor for direct dust removal.

Pulse dust system

The process of copper cable wire recycling machine adopts dry physical separation technology, without use fire or water. Compared with the traditional fire burnning and washing and chemical method, it does not produce any pollution at all. The separated copper does not damage its original performance, and can achieve double recycling of copper and plastic. The copper and plastic particles are very pure and can be sold directly on the market.

The copper cable wire recycling machine is compact in design and controlled by PLC control system, and just one or two worker for the entire operation. Saves both floor space and labor costs. Copper cable wire recycling machine is the best choice for copper wire recycling business.
