Scrap Copper and Aluminum Radiator Crushing and Recycling Plant
Designed for the recycling and processing of copper-aluminium radiators, automotive radiators, and mixed metal scrap, the copper-aluminium radiator crushing and sorting production line employs processes such as ‘crushing—magnetic separation—air classification—density separation’ to achieve the continuous recovery of materials including copper, aluminium, and iron. It can process mixed radiator scrap directly without the need for manual pre-sorting, making it suitable for recycling enterprises and metal processing plants.
Integrated crushing and sorting structure
Traditional radiator recycling typically requires the dismantling of steel components or manual sorting, whereas modern copper and aluminium radiator recycling production lines employ an integrated design that combines coarse crushing, fine crushing, and automatic sorting within a single system. The equipment uses a twin-shaft shredder to perform preliminary crushing of large-sized radiators, which are then fed into a hammer mill system to further separate copper tubes, aluminium foil, and connecting components.
Subsequently, the production line utilises a magnetic separation system to remove iron impurities, followed by air classification and gravity separation technologies to effectively separate the copper and aluminium. Due to the significant difference in density between copper and aluminium, the equipment is capable of achieving high-purity metal recovery during continuous operation, thereby reducing the workload of subsequent manual sorting.
For mixed waste containing radiators of varying specifications, this production line supports continuous feeding without the need for complex pre-treatment processes. This is one of the key reasons why large-scale recycled metal recovery projects increasingly favour automated equipment.

Multiple configurations to meet varying production capacity requirements
Depending on the scale of operations, the equipment is available in a range of configurations, suitable for everything from small and medium-sized recycling centres to large-scale resource recovery facilities.
| Model | Capacity（Kg/H） | Dimension(M) | Power（Kw） |
| SRP-1000 | 400-500 | 20*8.5*5.5 | 139 |
| SRP-2000 | 800-1000 | 24*10*5.5 | 209 |
| SRP-2000 | 1500-2000 | 28*20*5.5 | 328 |
Furthermore, this production line typically employs a PLC control system to enable automatic start/stop functions, fault alarms, and operational monitoring. For long-term metal recycling projects, stability and continuity are often more important than simply pursuing high-speed processing; consequently, the equipment’s structural design places greater emphasis on wear resistance and ease of maintenance.
With the increasing volume of vehicle dismantling, air conditioning unit recycling, and the replacement of industrial heat exchange equipment, the demand for processing mixed copper and aluminium scrap continues to grow. Compared to traditional manual dismantling methods, automated copper and aluminium radiator recycling equipment offers significant advantages in terms of recovery rates, labour cost control, and environmental management.
