In the field of scrap steel recycling and processing, various professional equipment is the core of realizing the resource utilization of scrap steel. They can efficiently process scrap steel of different forms and specifications, providing high-quality raw materials for subsequent smelting processes. Here are several common scrap steel equipment:
The scrap steel crusher is a key equipment for processing lightweight scrap steel, which can be used to process scattered scrap steel such as used bicycles, iron drums, and cans. Its working principle is to use a high-speed rotating hammer to violently impact, tear, and squeeze scrap steel, breaking it into uniform block materials. The scrap steel crusher has high processing efficiency and a high density of crushed materials, which not only facilitates transportation and storage, but also reduces transportation costs, while removing impurities from the scrap steel and improving its purity.
The crocodile style shearing machine is named after its resemblance to a crocodile's mouth and is mainly used for cutting thin steel plates, steel bars, steel pipes, and other scrap steel. It achieves cutting through the relative motion of two blades, with simple operation and fast cutting speed, and can cut long strip scrap steel into short materials that meet smelting requirements. The crocodile type shearing machine has a compact structure and a small footprint, making it suitable for use in small and medium-sized scrap steel recycling points. It is particularly efficient for processing batches of linear scrap steel.
The metal compactor focuses on compressing loose scrap steel into high-density blocks or cakes. For scrap steel with large volume and low density, such as car shells, scrap steel plates, etc., the strong pressure compression of the metal compactor can significantly reduce the volume and improve the efficiency of transportation and smelting. The scrap steel after compaction is stable and not easily scattered, and can also reduce the burning loss during the smelting process, improving energy utilization efficiency.
The gantry shear machine is a "giant" for processing large scrap steel, suitable for cutting thick steel plates, large steel sections, scrap steel components, etc. It has a sturdy frame and strong shear force, which can easily handle the cutting operation of heavy scrap steel. Longmen shearing machines are usually driven by hydraulic pressure, with a large shearing stroke and high degree of automation. They can achieve continuous shearing through control systems and are widely used in large-scale scrap steel processing plants. They are important equipment for large-scale processing of heavy scrap steel.
These scrap steel equipment have different division of labor, but they work together to form a complete industrial chain for scrap steel processing. In practical applications, it is necessary to select appropriate equipment combinations based on the type, specifications, and processing capacity of scrap steel to achieve efficient and environmentally friendly treatment of scrap steel and promote the development of circular economy.
