Pre-Shredder for Compressed Aluminum Scrap Recycling

Xrido Group's Compressed Aluminum Pre-shredder: The Core Power Source for Compressed Aluminum Scrap Recycling Lines

Compressed aluminum scrap (such as aluminum profile trimmings, compressed aluminum cans, and bundles of automotive aluminum parts) is high in density and compact in structure. Directly entering the sorting or smelting stages of a compressed aluminum scrap recycling line can easily lead to equipment blockage and uneven smelting, severely restricting recycling efficiency and resource purity. The compressed aluminum pre-shredder, as a key piece of equipment at the front end of the recycling line, can "break up" and crush the compacted aluminum scrap, clearing obstacles for subsequent processing. Based on its deep understanding of the characteristics of compressed aluminum scrap, Xrido Group has launched a professional pre-shredder, becoming the core power source driving the efficient operation of recycling lines.

The core competitiveness of Xrido Group's compressed aluminum pre-shredder lies in its strong crushing capability for high-hardness compressed aluminum scrap. The equipment employs a heavy-duty, dual-shaft, low-speed, high-torque structure, paired with tungsten carbide alloy blades with a hardness of HRC65. The blade teeth are specially designed to penetrate deep into the crevices of compressed aluminum waste, using a dual force of shearing and compression to crush aluminum waste blocks with a density of 1.2 t/m³ into uniform aluminum fragments of 5-15 cm, avoiding the problems of traditional pre-shredders being unable to "grind" and frequently jamming. Data shows that this equipment can process 15-30 tons of compressed aluminum waste per hour, with a crushing efficiency 40% higher than the industry average, significantly shortening the front-end processing cycle of the recycling line.

In the process integration of compressed aluminum waste recycling lines, the Xrido Group's compressed aluminum pre-shredder demonstrates extremely strong synergistic value. The increased surface area and looser structure of the crushed aluminum fragments allow for more thorough separation of ferromagnetic impurities (such as steel screws and connecting pieces in aluminum components) during subsequent magnetic separation, increasing the impurity removal rate to 99%. In the smelting stage, the loose aluminum fragments are heated more evenly, reducing smelting time by 30% and energy consumption, thus increasing the aluminum recovery rate of the recycling line by 2-3 percentage points. For recycling companies, this means an additional 20-30 kg of pure aluminum can be produced per ton of compressed aluminum waste, significantly improving economic benefits.

Furthermore, the Xrido Group compressed aluminum pre-shredder also prioritizes durability and environmental friendliness. The machine body is welded from 16mm thick wear-resistant steel plates, resisting the impact and wear of compressed aluminum waste, extending the service life of core components to 24 months. The fully enclosed crushing chamber, combined with a pulse dust removal system, effectively controls aluminum dust generated during the crushing process, preventing air pollution and meeting national environmental standards. Meanwhile, the equipment features a built-in intelligent overload protection system that automatically shuts down when encountering uncrushable hard objects (such as hidden metal blocks), protecting the blades and motor and reducing maintenance costs.

With the increasing demand for aluminum resource recycling, Xrido Group's compressed aluminum pre-shredder, with its characteristics of "high-efficiency crushing, process adaptability, and economic and environmental protection," has become an essential piece of equipment for upgrading compressed aluminum waste recycling lines. Choosing Xrido Group not only solves the front-end crushing challenges but also improves the overall efficiency of the recycling line, helping companies gain a competitive edge in the aluminum waste recycling market.
