Radiators are widely used in automobiles, air conditioners, and various industrial equipment, and contain large amounts of copper, aluminum, and plastic. Efficient recycling not only helps to save resources and reduce environmental pollution but also brings considerable economic returns to resource holders or investors. The key to achieving a high recovery rate and high purity lies in advanced crushing and sorting processes.

Primary Crushing: Initial Dissipation of Radiators

Primary crushing utilizes twin-shaft crushers or, in the case of larger radiators, medium-sized particles suitable for subsequent processing. These machines have a robust structure and wear-resistant tool design, and can effectively handle mixed metal materials, laying the foundation for subsequent fine crushing and sorting.

Fine Crushing: Uniform Particle Sizes for Higher Sorting Rates

After primary crushing, the material enters the fine crushing stage, typically using a hammer crusher or turbo fine crusher. This step further crushes the material to a uniform particle size of 5-20mm, which is not only conducive to improving the sorting accuracy but also reduces the energy consumption of the equipment and improves the overall system operating efficiency.

Magnetic separation: removing iron impurities

In order to ensure the purity of copper and aluminum sorting, you need to use magnetic separation equipment to remove iron impurities in the material. A permanent magnetic drum or belt-type magnetic separator can effectively separate iron impurities, often deployed in the primary crushing or fine crushing afterward.

Eddy Current Sorting: Efficient Separation of Aluminum and Plastic

Eddy's current sorting machine is the key equipment to realize the effective separation of non-ferrous metals such as aluminum, copper, and plastics. Its working principle is to generate induced eddy current by rotating a magnetic field, thus separating conductive metals from non-metals, which is especially suitable for recovering valuable metals such as aluminum and copper.

Airflow/Gravity Sorting: Separation of Light Impurities

By adjusting the wind speed, the airflow sorting system can separate light impurities such as plastic flakes and dust from heavier metal particles, further improving the purity of the metal particles, which is a key part of ensuring the quality of materials.

Electrostatic sorting (optional): copper and aluminum deep purification

For copper and aluminum materials with small mixed particle sizes, electrostatic sorting technology provides further separation accuracy. This equipment utilizes the difference in conductivity between various metals in an electric field to precisely separate copper and aluminum, making it ideal for those pursuing high-purity recycling.

Recycling effect and economic benefit analysis

With the support of properly configured processes and equipment, the recovery rate of this recycling line can exceed 98% for copper and 97% or more for aluminum, and the final materials are of high purity and can be directly entered into the recycling market or used in downstream manufacturing. The overall process has a high degree of automation, excellent energy efficiency, and low operating costs, making it very attractive for investment.
