Why you need the metal hammer crusher machine?

In the scrap metal market, “quantity” does not equate to “value.” If you are transporting loose, lightweight scrap—such as roofing sheets, paint cans, or bicycle frames—you are essentially spending the majority of your money on transporting air. To maximize profits, professional recyclers are utilizing specialized metal hammer shredders to transform thin, bulky scrap into high-quality, high-density “shredded steel.”

Lightweight scrap metal—including compressed bales—presents two major challenges for modern steel mills: 1. Low Density: Bulky sheet metal occupies excessive space within the furnace, thereby prolonging the smelting time. 2. Impurities: Paint, rust, and oil residue contaminate the molten metal, resulting in a decline in the quality of the recycled steel.

SUNYGROUP’s metal hammer shredders harness high-velocity kinetic energy to impact, tear, and compress materials, achieving the following results:

1. Densification: As the hammerheads strike the thin-sheet scrap and drive it against the internal liners, the metal is curled and folded into dense, fist-sized spheres or nuggets. This process increases the bulk density from approximately 300 kg/m³ to over 1,200 kg/m³.

2. Self-Cleaning: The intense friction and impact generated during the shredding process effectively “cleanse” the metal. Up to 95% of surface rust, paint, and dirt are removed, leaving behind a clean metal surface.

Nowadays, SUNYGROUP’s metal hammer shredders have been exported to over 20 countries worldwide, earning unanimous acclaim from our customers. If you would like to learn more details about this equipment, please contact us at: sales.sunycycle@gmail.com
