Crushing Equipment

Eddy Current Separator

An eddy current separator, also known as an eddy current separator or metal separator, can separate non-ferrous metals such as copper and aluminum from various crushed metal mixtures. It is also widely used in environmental protection, especially in the non-ferrous metal recycling industry.The eddy

♻ By Material

Choose Equipment By Scrap Material

The system flexibly processes scrap steel, aluminum, UBC, thermal-break profiles, car shells, and more — crushing and sorting in one integrated line, adapting to mixed scrap from diverse sources.

scrap metal

Car shells, color steel tiles, oil drums, aluminum profiles, cast aluminum scrap, UBC, copper wire, etc.Mixed light-gauge steel, aluminum alloy offcuts, automotive aluminum castings, insulated copper

scrap car

End-of-life vehicle scrap — car shells, truck bodies, van shells, motorcycle frames, bicycle frames, e-bike frames, and dismantled auto parts.

Drum Sheet

Scrap metal containers — steel oil drums, paint buckets, chemical drums, solvent drums, lubricant drums, tinplate cans, and baled drum scrap.

scrap aluminum profiles

Aluminum extrusion and architectural scrap — thermal-break doors & windows, aluminum alloy door/window frames, aluminum profiles, offcuts, formwork, gusset plates, decorative trims, and other post

raw aluminum castings

Cast aluminum scrap — automotive aluminum wheels, engine blocks, cylinder heads, transmission housings, motor housings, aluminum die-castings, and other bulk aluminum casting scrap.

aluminum can

Used beverage cans (UBC) — loose or baled aluminum beverage cans, beer cans, cola cans, tinplate cans, aerosol cans, aluminum can ends, pull tabs, and flattened can scrap.
