Scrap Aluminum Recycling Line
Product Overview

What Is a Scrap Aluminum Recycling Line?

A scrap aluminum recycling line is a complete physical processing system for reducing the volume of waste aluminum and separating valuable aluminum from iron, plastics, rubber, paint residue and other impurities. It is suitable for recycling plants, scrap yards, metal processing factories, aluminum profile manufacturers and non-ferrous metal recovery projects.

Different aluminum materials have different structures. Aluminum profiles and door-window frames are usually long and bulky. UBC cans are light and easy to compress. Aluminum wheels and automotive aluminum parts may contain iron, rubber or other attached materials. Aluminum chips need compaction or briquetting to reduce oxidation loss and transport cost.

Yuxi can configure the line according to material type, feeding size, impurity content, capacity target, discharge size, workshop layout, dust control requirement and final product requirement.

Customer Pain Points

Common Problems in Scrap Aluminum Recycling

Scrap aluminum has high recycling value, but different materials are often bulky, mixed and difficult to sort manually. A professional recycling line helps improve feeding efficiency, impurity removal and aluminum output quality.

Bulky Material Volume

Aluminum profiles, frames, sheets and wheels take up large storage space and increase transportation cost.

Iron Contamination

Scrap aluminum may contain screws, steel inserts, iron brackets and other magnetic impurities that reduce aluminum value.

Mixed Non-metal Impurities

Plastic strips, rubber, labels, coatings and packaging residues may remain mixed with aluminum materials.

Manual Sorting Is Slow

Manual feeding and sorting cannot meet stable industrial production requirements when the material volume increases.

Unstable Particle Size

Oversized or irregular scrap aluminum is not convenient for smelting, storage, transport or downstream trading.

Low Material Value

Unclean and uncompressed aluminum scrap usually has lower selling price and higher logistics cost.

Process Flow

How Does the Scrap Aluminum Recycling Line Work?

The common process can include feeding, primary shredding, secondary crushing, magnetic separation, screening, eddy current separation, aluminum collection, baling or briquetting, dust collection and centralized control. The layout can be adjusted according to raw material shape, output size and site condition.

Final Outputs

Final Products After Aluminum Recycling

After shredding, crushing, impurity removal and physical separation, scrap aluminum can be converted into cleaner and more compact recyclable materials. The final output depends on raw material type and selected equipment configuration.

Shredded aluminum output

Shredded Aluminum

Reduced-size aluminum pieces are easier to store, transport and feed into downstream melting or remelting processes.

Aluminum bales after recycling

Aluminum Bales

Aluminum cans, sheets and light scrap can be compressed into bales to reduce volume and logistics cost.

Aluminum briquettes from chips

Aluminum Briquettes

Aluminum chips and turnings can be pressed into compact briquettes for cleaner storage and higher recovery efficiency.

Ferrous impurities from aluminum recycling

Ferrous Impurities

Steel screws, iron inserts and magnetic metal impurities can be removed by magnetic separation.

Non-metal impurities after aluminum separation

Non-metal Impurities

Plastic, rubber, labels, coatings and light impurities can be separated according to the process configuration.

Clean aluminum fraction for recycling

Clean Aluminum Fraction

Cleaner aluminum output improves downstream handling, trading value and recycling efficiency.
