Metal Swarf Briquetting Machine

The Metal Swarf Briquetting Machine manufactured by ECOHYDRAULIC is designed for efficient recycling of metal chips, swarf, and machining waste generated in CNC processing, casting, and metal fabrication industries. By compacting loose metal swarf into high-density briquettes, the system significantly reduces storage space, improves transportation efficiency, and increases the recycling value of metal scrap.

As a professional China manufacturer and factory supplier with more than 30 years of experience in hydraulic machinery production, ECOHYDRAULIC provides advanced briquetting solutions widely used in steel plants, aluminum processing factories, copper recycling centers, and machining workshops around the world.

Why Metal Swarf Briquetting Is Essential for Modern Metal Recycling?

Metal processing industries generate large volumes of swarf mixed with cutting oil and coolant. Without proper treatment, this waste not only occupies valuable floor space but also leads to environmental concerns and unnecessary cost losses. The ECOHYDRAULIC briquetting system offers a practical and efficient solution by compressing loose chips into solid blocks, while recovering cutting fluids for reuse.

Compared with traditional scrap handling methods, briquetting technology helps factories achieve cleaner production, lower logistics costs, and higher scrap resale value. This makes it an essential machine for companies focusing on sustainable manufacturing and resource recovery.

Working Principle

The Metal Swarf Briquetting Machine operates through a high-pressure hydraulic system that compresses metal chips into dense briquettes. The process also separates cutting fluids, allowing reuse and reducing environmental discharge.

Main Process Flow

• Feeding of loose metal swarf into the hopper
• Hydraulic pre-compression stage
• High-pressure forming into briquettes
• Oil or coolant separation and recovery
• Automatic discharge of finished briquettes

This continuous process ensures stable output and consistent briquette density, making it suitable for both small workshops and large industrial production lines.
