Product Details

Air conditioner casing water tank crusher main machine structure
Haoxing Machinery's AC Housing and Radiator Crusher, also known as the Copper-Aluminum Radiator Crusher or AC Recycling Crusher, is a fully automated hammer mill and multi-stage separation line designed for processing waste air conditioner housings, outdoor units, automotive radiators, heat exchangers, and water heaters. These materials contain valuable copper, aluminum, iron, and plastics. The system integrates hammer crushing, magnetic separation, eddy current separation, and air classification to thoroughly liberate and separate these components. Compared to manual dismantling, this automated line significantly reduces labor costs, achieves separation purity of over 99%, and limits material loss to just 2% - 3%. It is a high-ROI solution for the refrigeration and radiator recycling industry.
Applications
AC and refrigerator dismantling and recycling facilities.
Automotive radiator and heat exchanger recovery.
Water heater and home appliance dismantling plants.
Scrap metal sorting and processing centers.
Resource recovery and recycling bases.

Process Flow:
Crushing: Waste AC housings and radiators are fed into the crusher. High-speed high-manganese steel hammers impact and shatter the material into small, mixed fragments.
Magnetic Separation: The crushed mixture passes under a high-intensity magnetic drum separator, which extracts ferrous metals (iron, steel) for separate collection.
Eddy Current Separation: The non-ferrous fraction enters an Eddy Current Separator, where alternating magnetic fields eject non-ferrous metals (copper, aluminum) away from non-conductive plastics and rubber.
Air Classification & Screening: A vibrating screen and air classifier remove lightweight impurities and dust, ensuring high purity of recovered copper and aluminum.
Dust Collection: A pulse baghouse dust collector captures airborne particulates, maintaining a clean and compliant work environment.
The entire line is PLC-controlled and requires only three operators for normal production.
