What is the use of separated copper and plastic from copper wire granulator?

All kinds of scrap copper wires can be separated into pure copper and plastic through copper wire granulator processing. Then, some people may ask: What is the use of separated copper and plastic from copper wire granulator? Let's talk about it.

1. Copper

The separated copper is #1 copper metal, which has wide application. For example, it can be used as raw materials instead of electrolytic copper to manufacture metallurgical products, copper foil and copper clad laminates. It also can be granulated into new copper cables or car wires.

2. Plastic

As for the separated plastic particles from the copper wire granulator machine, it can be used to make recycled plastic pellets, make soles, plastic shoes, etc. Or further process forthe cable production. Now, PVC is also used to make artificial leather or mouse and keyboards.

Both of them can be sold at a good price in the trading market. Such as the separated copper can be sold at the price of about USD8,020. The following table is a profit analysis table provided by our Indian customer by using copper wire granulator with the processing capacity of 500kg/h. (Tips: There are different price of waste cable wires and copper & plastic in different countries and areas, you can calculate your profit according to your local market price.)

Speaking of this, many people should be curious about howthe copper wire granulator separates copper and plastic from waste cable wire, so next, let me explain the working process of copper wire granulator.

Copper wire granulator

1. Crushing

The first step of copper wire granulator to separate copper from plastic out of waste cable wires is crushing. The crusher will crush the waste cable wires into small copper and plastic mixed particles.

2. Separating

The second step is separating, which includes air separating and electrostatic separating. Air separating will separate copper from plastic according their different gravity of same size. If there are some very thin wires, the gravity of big size plastic and small size copper will be similar, which can't be separated clearly. Therefore, electrostatic separating is necessary. It can separate copper from plastic according to the conductivity of metal. The separating rate can reach to 99%.
