Scrap Metal Chip Processing and Collection Systems for Easier Scrap Handling
If your manufacturing operation produces scrap metal chips and turnings, you understand the challenges of moving the scrap from place to another. For Applied Recovery Systems can help. With our complete line of metal chip collection and processing equipment – including crushers, conveyors, shredders and dumpers – we can create an integrated scrap metal handling system for your facility, making this process more productive and profitable by providing machines to move your scrap metal from your machine tools directly to a scrap metal processing where the briquetter (scrap chip compactor) will be integrated.
ARS Metal Chip Processing Equipment
Ring Type Metal Chip Crusher/Shredder
When nested turnings include solids, they must be removed from the chip processing system. The least expensive way to accomplish this is with a ring crusher. The ring crusher presses scrap material against a grate and cut down to a size that will fit through the grate. Any solids that cannot be pressed through the grate are sent out through the solids ejection chute. The ring crusher is a good choice for chip processing systems where metering of the materials is possible and solids are present.
Vertical Axis Metal Chip Crusher/Shredder
The vertical axis metal chip crusher – the ideal system for crushing turnings into a flowable form – is self metering and rejects solids. This simple, easy-to-use chip processing system will save you time and streamline your scrap metal handling, making it a cost-effective investment.
Steel Belt Conveyors
ARS can design a variety of steel belt conveyors solutions to meet the demands of your chip processing system. From a simple take-away system for briquettes to a more complex system for conveying chips and cutting oils from machine tools, ARS can meet your needs
Ram Feed Assist
For material that can be shaken apart but tends to "snowball" when tumbled, ARS has developed an optional ram feed assist. With every cycle the ram feed forces material ahead of the gather ram to ensure a full load in the chamber – a valuable processing system for chips under four inches long.
Cart Dumper
Integrated into chip processing systems, hydraulic cart dumpers elevate carts and dump material either into the briquetter hopper or a vertical axis crusher. ARS manufactures both types of systems.
We also can provide you with chip spinners, crushers and other metal chip processing equipment. Contact us to learn more about how an ARS recycling machine can help your industrial operation.
