Start with the material
Use these notes to frame the feed, output and site questions before asking for a machine recommendation.
Aluminium Profile vs UBC Recycling: Different Feed, Different Line
Why aluminium profiles, castings and used beverage cans should be qualified separately before selecting crushing, screening and separation stages.
WEEE Recycling Line: Dismantling, Shredding and Metal Separation
What must be removed before appliance crushing, and where shredding, magnetic separation and non-ferrous recovery fit.
Scrap Steel Shear vs Shredder: Which Comes First?
How to decide whether heavy steel should be cropped by a gantry shear before shredding, based on feed geometry and target product.
Cable Recycling Line: Which Cable Types Can Be Granulated?
A practical pre-purchase guide to cable diameter, insulation, copper content and armouring before choosing a granulation line.
More practical notes
Equipment selection, process design and buying decisions, kept concise.
How to choose the right copper wire granulator capacity
Capacity is not the only number that matters. A practical guide to matching granulator size to cable mix, labour and the copper price you actually sell into.
Eddy current vs. magnetic separation: what each actually removes
Two machines, two different jobs. Where magnetic separation stops and eddy current separation starts — and why running them in the wrong order costs recovery.
What actually drives the cost of a scrap recycling line
Four variables determine the price of a recycling line far more than the number of machines in it. A breakdown buyers can use to compare quotes honestly.
