Product Description

PLC Control Metal Briquetting Press For Cast Iron Swarf And Aluminum Recycling

Product Overview

The 4000 kN Metal Briquetting Press is a heavy-duty hydraulic recycling machine designed to compress loose metal chips, turnings and swarf into dense, compact briquettes. Its powerful 4000 kN compression force significantly reduces the volume of machining waste while producing uniform briquettes that are easier to store, transport and remelt.

This industrial metal chip briquetting machine is suitable for steel chips, cast iron swarf, aluminum turnings, copper chips and other machining residues. Compared with loose chips, compressed briquettes require less storage space, generate less material loss during handling and can provide more stable charging conditions for foundries and smelting plants.

The machine can be integrated with conveyors, chip crushers, magnetic separators and automatic feeding systems to create a complete metal chip recycling line.

Cause

Metal machining facilities regularly produce large volumes of loose chips and turnings. These materials occupy considerable workshop space and are difficult to collect, transport and feed into melting furnaces.

Loose metal chips may also contain residual cutting fluid. Directly transporting or melting them can lead to:

  • High logistics costs caused by low bulk density
  • Cutting fluid leakage during storage and transportation
  • Increased oxidation and burning loss during melting
  • Difficult and unstable furnace feeding
  • Higher labor requirements for material handling
  • Lower recycling value due to inconsistent material condition

Solution

The 4000 kN hydraulic metal briquetting press compresses loose chips under high pressure to form solid, high-density briquettes. During compression, a portion of the residual cutting fluid can be separated from the material and collected for treatment or reuse.

Its high-pressure hydraulic system provides stable compression for dense materials such as steel and cast iron chips. The resulting briquettes are uniform in shape, convenient to stack and suitable for automated furnace charging.

Important advantages include:

  • Powerful 4000 kN compression force
  • Significant reduction in scrap volume
  • Higher and more consistent material density
  • Improved storage and transportation efficiency
  • Recovery of residual cutting fluids
  • Reduced oxidation and melting loss
  • Automatic feeding and discharge options
  • Customizable mould and briquette dimensions

Specifications

Item Specification
Equipment Metal Briquetting Press
Nominal Compression Force 4000 kN
Applicable Materials Steel, cast iron, aluminum and copper chips
Briquette Shape Cylindrical
Control System PLC Automatic Control
Feeding Method Automatic or Manual Feeding
Discharge Method Automatic Briquette Discharge
Configuration Customized According to Material

Actual briquette size, production capacity, motor power and cycle time are selected according to the material type, chip condition and required briquette density.

Application

The 4000 kN Metal Briquetting Press is widely used in:

  • CNC machining workshops
  • Automotive component factories
  • Steel and cast iron foundries
  • Aluminum processing plants
  • Bearing and gear manufacturing facilities
  • Metal recycling centers
  • Copper and non-ferrous metal processors
  • Machinery manufacturing factories

For long, tangled or uneven metal turnings, a chip crusher may be required before briquetting to ensure consistent feeding and stable production.

How It Works

Metal chips are delivered into the compression chamber manually or through an automatic feeding system. The hydraulic cylinder applies high pressure to the material inside the mould, reducing air gaps and forcing the chips into a compact cylindrical briquette.

Residual liquid released during compression is discharged through the collection system. After the preset pressure and holding time are reached, the briquette is automatically released from the mould and the machine begins the next cycle.

A PLC control system coordinates feeding, compression, pressure holding and discharge to maintain stable and repeatable operation.

How To Choose

Before selecting a metal briquetting press, buyers should confirm:

  • Metal type and material composition
  • Chip shape, length and bulk density
  • Moisture or cutting-fluid content
  • Required hourly processing capacity
  • Expected briquette diameter and density
  • Available electrical supply
  • Feeding and discharge requirements

Steel and cast iron chips normally require higher pressure than aluminum chips. Material testing is recommended when the scrap contains mixed metals, long turnings or a high percentage of cutting fluid.

FAQ

What materials can the 4000 kN briquetting press process?

It can process steel chips, cast iron swarf, aluminum turnings, copper chips and similar machining waste. Different materials may require different moulds and operating pressures.

Can it process long and tangled metal turnings?

Long or tangled turnings should normally be crushed before briquetting. A chip crusher can be added to improve feeding stability and protect the hydraulic system.

Can cutting fluid be recovered?

Yes. High-pressure compression can separate part of the residual oil or coolant from the metal chips. The recovered liquid can be collected for treatment or possible reuse.

Is the production capacity the same for every material?

No. Capacity depends on chip type, bulk density, moisture content, feeding speed and required briquette density. Material information should be provided before confirming the final configuration.

Can it be connected to an automatic production line?

Yes. The machine can work with chip crushers, conveyors, storage silos, magnetic separators and automatic feeding systems to form a complete recycling line.
