Stop letting valuable metal sawdust go to waste! Our Y83-5000 Scrap Briquetting Press is your ultimate profit-generating machine. It powerfully compresses messy steel, iron, aluminum, and brass chips into solid, high-density "profit pucks." Reclaim up to 90% of your storage space, slash transportation costs, and finally get top dollar for your scrap—all while creating a cleaner, safer shop floor.

• Extreme Compressive Force: Boasts a massive 5000 kN (500 Metric Tons) nominal force, ensuring the highest density briquettes for maximum value.

• High Production Capacity: Achieves an impressive output of up to 1200 kg/h (when processing lead red brass sawdust), ensuring a quick return on investment.

• Optimized Briquette Size: Produces uniform, easy-to-handle cylindrical briquettes measuring Φ110mm * (50-60)mm.

• Powerful & Efficient Drive: Equipped with a 30 kW motor and a robust hydraulic system, offering stable, vibration-free, and reliable operation with low energy consumption.

• Flexible Operation: Can be configured for Manual or PLC Semi-Automatic operation to suit your specific production needs and budget.

• Simple Installation: Requires only a simple underground footing, significantly reducing installation time and civil engineering costs.

• "Dry" Briquetting Process: The high pressure expels coolants/oils, producing drier briquettes that are ideal for melting and yield a higher selling price.

• Steel & Cast Iron Sawdust

• Aluminum Chips and Turnings

• Brass, Copper, and Bronze Chips (including Lead Red Brass)

• Other non-ferrous metal swarf

• Maximize Profit: Convert low-value swarf into high-density briquettes that command a premium price from foundries and smelters.

• Reduce Costs: Drastically reduce storage space and transportation costs.

• Improve Safety & Cleanliness: Eliminate loose, slippery chips and minimize fire risks associated with fine dust.

• Environmental Benefits: Contain cutting fluids for proper disposal or recycling and reduce the carbon footprint of transportation.

• Reliable & Robust: Built for continuous duty in demanding industrial environments.

• Quality Assurance: Manufactured in compliance with ISO9001:2000 quality management standards.

• Warranty: Backed by a full one-year warranty.

• Support: Committed to providing lifelong maintenance support and immediate technical assistance via phone or email.

Q1: What is the main difference between a briquetting press and a baler?

A: While both compress material, a baler (like a scrap metal baler) typically produces larger, rectangular "bales" of loose scrap. A briquetting press applies extremely high pressure to fine materials like sawdust, fusing them together into small, solid, and dense "briquettes" or "pucks" without the need for binding agents.

Q2: Does the machine handle wet chips with coolant?

A: Yes, it is designed to handle chips with residual coolant. The immense pressure (5000 kN) will squeeze out a significant amount of the liquid during the compression process, resulting in a much drier briquette. The extracted fluid is collected in a built-in tank or trough for easy disposal or recycling.

Q3: Why are briquettes more valuable than loose sawdust?

A: Briquettes have a much higher density, which reduces oxidation loss (less surface area), makes them easier to handle and transport, and improves melting efficiency for smelters. This higher metal yield and lower logistics cost for the buyer allow them to pay a premium price per ton compared to loose chips.

Q4: Is the PLC system included?

A: The Y83-5000 can be supplied with either a manual control system or an optional PLC-based semi-automatic system. The PLC system enhances ease of use and consistency but comes at a higher cost. Please specify your requirement when inquiring.

Q5: What is the delivery time?

A: Standard delivery time is approximately 30-45 days after order confirmation and deposit receipt, depending on our production schedule.
