How is copper recycled from waste cable wires step by step?

To recycle copper from waste cable wires only need a set of copper wire granulator machine, which can separate copper from plastic in two steps: crushing and separating.

If your waste cable wires don't include many fine miscellaneous line, the above two steps are enough for you. Crushing machine will make waste cable wires into small pieces, and through air-flow separator, the copper will be separated from plastic.The separation step is relatively simple, but the separation rate can reach more than 98%.

If your waste cable wires have different kinds and maybe contain iron, the above two steps are not enugh, and you need a complete set of copper wire granulator machine, which includes 5 steps: shredding, removing iron, crushing, air-flow separating and electrostatic separating. You can watch the follow video to learn the working steps of copper wire granulator machine.

As the video shows, first, waste cable wires are put on the belt conveyor, and be transported into shredder. After the shredder shreds the waste cable, the iron is separated through the belt conveyor and the magnetic separator. Then, the waste cables are crushed, and the remaining iron is separated by an air separator and a double-layer iron separator. Finally, copper and plastic are separated by electrostatic separation. After these steps, the separation rate can reach more than 99%.

In addition, because copper has good thermal and electrical conductivity, there is also a lot of copper in circuit boards, radiators and other equipment. If you want to recycle copper from circuit boards and radiators, we have PCB recycling machine and radiator crushing and separation machine. If you need, welcome to consult us.
