Equipment Introduction
The Aluminum Crankcase Crusher is designed for crushing cast aluminum automotive parts such as aluminum crankcases, engine housings, gearbox housings, cylinder blocks, and other machine aluminum scrap. It helps recyclers reduce bulky cast aluminum parts into smaller pieces for separation, transportation, remelting, or further processing.
The equipment is suitable for automobile dismantling plants, aluminum recycling yards, non-ferrous metal recovery companies, and smelting material preparation lines. According to material size and hardness, the system can be configured as a single crusher or as a pre-shredder plus crusher plus separation line.
By crushing aluminum crankcases and engine housings, the machine helps expose embedded steel parts, separate impurities, and improve the value of recovered aluminum. Magnetic separation and eddy current separation can be selected according to the composition of the incoming material.
Working Principle
Aluminum crankcases and cast aluminum parts are fed into the crushing chamber by conveyor or loader. The rotor drives high-strength hammers to rotate at high speed. The material is repeatedly impacted, torn, and crushed between the hammer, lining plate, and screen until it reaches the required size.
The crushed material is discharged through the screen and transported to the separation section. Magnetic separation removes ferrous parts such as bolts, shafts, and steel inserts. If the material contains mixed non-metallic impurities, an eddy current separator and manual sorting platform can be added for improved aluminum recovery.
Features and Advantages
Targeted design for cast aluminum automotive parts and machine aluminum scrap.
Strong impact crushing force for thick engine housings and crankcase material.
Helps release embedded iron parts and improve downstream separation efficiency.
Screen aperture can be customized for different smelting and recycling requirements.
Wear-resistant hammers and liners reduce maintenance frequency for hard cast aluminum.
Can be combined with a twin shaft shredder for large or irregular aluminum castings.
