Squeezing Value Out of Metal Scrap
June 1, 2017
RUF Briquetting Systems offers the RUF 11/1600/80 Briquetter, designed to process up to 650 lbs. per hour of aluminum chips and turnings.
"RUF Briquetters help squeeze more value from almost any metal, including aluminum, brass, bronze, cast iron, copper, magnesium, steel, tire wire, titanium, zinc and more," said a company spokesperson. "The briquetting process compresses metal scrap, and the easy-to-transport form makes it more convenient to store, sell or recycle. The dense briquettes are less susceptible to corrosion, making them a more attractive option for foundries. Briquettes melt more efficiently than loose chips. Briquetting scrap can reduce the volume by as much as 20 to 1, making it easier to handle and more economical to recycle or sell."
RUF Briquetters also reclaim expensive cutting fluids and reduce handling, transportation and disposal costs, lessoning a company's overall costs and environmental footprint. Dry briquettes eliminate "wet penalties" from recyclers.
RUF Briquetters are engineered for automatic, 24-hour operation with low horsepower, compact designs that allow for easy integration into existing production lines, with an average return on investment of 18 months or less.
