5000kN Hydraulic Scrap Briquetting Press Φ110×50–60mm Briquette Size For Lead Red Brass Sawdust Recycling

Product Overview

The 5000kN Hydraulic Scrap Briquetting Press is designed for compressing lead red brass sawdust, brass chips, copper alloy shavings, bronze chips, and other non-ferrous metal residues into compact cylindrical briquettes. With a strong 5000kN nominal force, Φ110×50–60mm briquette size, 30kW power, and a reference capacity of around 1200kg/h for lead red brass sawdust, this machine is suitable for brass processing factories, copper alloy machining workshops, foundries, and non-ferrous metal recycling plants.

Lead red brass sawdust is a valuable material, but in loose form it is difficult to store, transport, and remelt efficiently. Fine sawdust can scatter during handling, occupy large storage space, and cause material loss. This briquetting press helps convert loose sawdust into dense, regular briquettes, making the material easier to collect, stack, weigh, sell, and return to the furnace.

The machine adopts a hydraulic drive system, offering stable operation, smooth pressing, no strong vibration, and safe performance. The 500kN pressure on the bale helps improve briquette compactness and shape stability, which is especially important for high-value non-ferrous metal recycling. Compared with loose metal sawdust, briquettes are cleaner, easier to manage, and more suitable for furnace feeding.

Customers can choose manual operation or PLC semi-automatic operation according to their production needs. Manual operation is simple and practical, while PLC semi-automatic operation can reduce labor intensity and improve production consistency. The machine only requires a simple underground footing, making installation easier for different factory layouts.

For buyers who process lead red brass sawdust every day, this model provides a practical balance of high pressure, stable output, compact briquette size, and reliable long-term operation. It helps improve scrap recovery value while keeping the workshop cleaner and material handling more efficient.

Cause

Loose lead red brass sawdust often creates several problems for factories and recyclers.

Fine sawdust has low bulk density and occupies too much storage space.

Loose material is easy to scatter during loading, unloading, and transportation.

Valuable non-ferrous metal may be lost during handling if it remains in loose form.

Loose sawdust is not always ideal for direct furnace feeding and may increase burning loss.

Scrap buyers and foundries usually prefer compact briquettes because they are easier to weigh, store, transport, and remelt.

Solution

The 5000kN Hydraulic Scrap Briquetting Press solves these problems by compressing loose lead red brass sawdust into uniform cylindrical briquettes.

Main advantages include:

High pressure for dense briquettes
The 5000kN nominal force provides strong compression, helping form stable briquettes from lead red brass sawdust and copper alloy chips.

Better scrap recovery value
Briquetted material is denser, cleaner, and easier to sell or reuse than loose sawdust.

Reduced storage and transport loss
Compact briquettes are easier to stack and less likely to scatter during handling.

Suitable for non-ferrous metal recycling
The machine is ideal for valuable materials such as brass, bronze, copper alloy chips, and lead red brass sawdust.

Stable hydraulic operation
Hydraulic drive ensures smooth movement, low vibration, safe operation, and reliable performance.

Flexible control options
Manual and PLC semi-automatic operation are available for different production requirements.

Specifications

Application

The 5000kN hydraulic scrap briquetting press is widely used in non-ferrous metal recycling and metal processing industries.

It is suitable for:

Lead red brass processing factories
Compress lead red brass sawdust into compact briquettes for recycling and remelting.

Copper alloy machining workshops
Handle brass chips, bronze chips, copper alloy shavings, and other machining residues.

Foundries and casting plants
Prepare non-ferrous metal residues for easier furnace charging and material recovery.

Scrap metal recycling centers
Upgrade loose valuable metal sawdust into dense briquettes for easier resale and transport.

Valve, pipe fitting, and hardware factories
Recover brass and copper alloy chips generated during machining and production.

How It Works

The operator feeds lead red brass sawdust or suitable metal chips into the compression chamber. The hydraulic system then drives the pressing cylinder to apply strong pressure to the loose material. Under high compression force, the sawdust is formed into a compact cylindrical briquette with a size of Φ110×50–60mm.

Normally, no adhesive is required. The briquette is formed by hydraulic pressure. If the material contains cutting oil or coolant, part of the liquid may be squeezed out during compression, depending on material condition.

After pressing, the finished briquette is discharged and can be collected for storage, packing, transportation, resale, or furnace remelting.

How To Choose

Before choosing this machine, buyers should confirm the material type, chip size, oil content, required capacity, voltage, and workshop layout.

This model is suitable for customers processing lead red brass sawdust with a target capacity of around 1200kg/h. If the material is long curled chips, mixed metal scrap, or has high oil content, the feeding method and machine configuration should be confirmed before ordering.

Manual operation is suitable for simple production needs and lower investment. PLC semi-automatic operation is better for factories that want smoother production, more consistent output, and reduced labor workload.
