Automated Shredding & Sorting Systems Transform Efficiency

As industries around the world accelerate toward sustainable manufacturing, the role of scrap metal recycling equipment has never been more critical. What used to be a labour-intensive, low-efficiency process has become a modern, automated, high-value industrial system.

Today’s recycling facilities demand not only higher throughput but also improved purity levels and stable operational costs. This shift has made automated shredders, crushers, and sorting systems essential to modern metal recovery.

Automated recycling lines powered by two-shaft shredders, hammer mills, and intelligent separators deliver:

Consistent production

High metal purity (up to 98% in some processes)

Continuous, 24-hour operation

Reduced labour reliance

Better environmental compliance

Core Machines Reinventing Scrap Metal Recycling

Two-Shaft Shredder: Ideal for bulky items like car shells, appliances, drums, and profile scrap.Low RPM, high torque/Anti-jam reverse rotation/Adjustable blade spacing/Stable output and minimal dust

Hammer Mill Metal Crusher: After primary shredding, a hammer mill crushes material into smaller, uniform pieces.Excellent liberation of metals from plastics, foam, or paint.Higher density for easier transportation.Improved downstream separation

Magnetic Separator: Removes ferrous metals after shrinking and crushing. High-performance drum magnets or over-belt separators ensure efficient extraction.

Eddy Current Separator: Vital for recovering non-ferrous metals like: Aluminium/Copper/Zinc/Brass. Eddy current technology allows precise sorting without physical contact, reducing wear and maintenance.

Automated scrap metal recycling equipment is no longer a luxury—it is the backbone of future recycling operations. Businesses that upgrade early will capture more market share as global recycling demand continues to rise.
