This machine is an integrated dry-type copper wire granulator and separator. It is specialized industrial equipment designed to recycle waste electrical cables by mechanically chopping them and separating high-purity copper from plastic insulation.
Core Components & Their Functions
This machine typically utilizes a “dry physical” separation method that requires no water or chemicals:
-
Feeding Hopper (Yellow): The starting point where raw scrap cables (typically up to 25mm in diameter) are introduced.
-
Main Crusher/Shredder: Uses high-speed rotating blades (often made of SKD-11 steel) to pulverize wires into small granules.
-
Airflow Separator: A high-pressure fan blows through the mixture; the lighter plastic is lifted by the air while the heavier copper granules drop to the bed.
-
Vibrating Separation Bed: A specialized table that uses gravity and vibration to refine the sorting, guiding clean “copper rice” to one outlet and plastic pellets to another.
-
Dust Collection System (Grey/Blue Unit): An integrated filtration system (usually bag filters or a cyclone) that captures fine particles to maintain a clean environment.
-
PLC Control Panel: The white cabinet used to adjust the vibration frequency and air blower speed to optimize purity.
Key Maintenance Tips
To maintain high purity and machine longevity, focus on these three areas:
-
Blade Sharpening: Crusher blades are wearable parts; if you notice mixed material or “unbroken” wires, the blades need sharpening or replacement.
-
Sieve Cleaning: The internal screens (3mm–5mm) should be checked and cleaned regularly to prevent dust buildup that can block airflow.
-
Magnetic Pre-sorting: If processing automotive wire, it is recommended to use a magnetic separator at the input stage to remove iron bits that can damage the crusher blades.
