Aluminum Chip Processing
Retech offers automated systems for the recycling of internally generated aluminum scrap. From machining centers to melt furnaces, each step in the chip recycling process is automated with equipment designed to fit the unique demands of each customer’s specific process and facility.
While no two systems are identical, each system is made up of components that automate a specific step in the recycling sequence with machinery designed for optimal efficiency in energy consumption, human resources, and regulatory compliance.
Aluminum chip processing systems generally include components to perform each of the following steps:
- In-floor Chim Collection
- Coolant Supply and Filtration
- Chip Sizing
- Centrifuging
- Chip Storage
- Chip Drying
- Separation
- Furnace Feed
- Melt Submergence
Retech’s suite of aluminum ReMelt processes have achieved energy savings and material recovery of up to ##% compared to conventional recycling systems.
