Advanced Dry-Type Scrap Cable Wire Recycling Systems

The global accumulation of decommissioned cables poses a significant environmental challenge. Over time, cable insulation degrades, or the inner conductive cores sustain damage, necessitating frequent replacements to maintain industrial productivity and power stability. Traditionally, the recycling process relied on incineration to strip away PVC or plastic coatings. However, this primitive method yields low-purity metals and releases toxic black smoke, causing severe atmospheric pollution. Shifting toward modern recycling projects is no longer just a business opportunity; it is a vital initiative for environmental protection and resource reuse.

Advanced Mechanical Processing and High-Purity Separation
Our company specializes in the engineering and production of advanced dry-type recycling systems that utilize physical crushing and sorting. Unlike thermal methods, our machinery handles a wide array of raw materials—including automotive, communication, and industrial wiring (0.3–20mm)—by reducing them to high-quality copper and plastic powders. Given that waste wires typically contain at least 30% copper—a significantly higher concentration than that found in raw copper ore—our process provides a highly efficient alternative to mining. The resulting scrap copper can be reintroduced to the market after simple electrolytic refining, while the recovered plastics are preserved for reuse, effectively eliminating secondary waste.

Optimized Operational Workflow for Maximum Yield
The recycling process is engineered through a sophisticated, multi-stage workflow to ensure peak efficiency and purity:
Pre-Treatment: An optional Single-shaft Shredder shears wires into 3–5cm segments, ensuring a consistent feed rate and extending the lifespan of subsequent blades.
Precision Crushing: The Crusher further reduces the material to 2–4mm granules, mechanically detaching the insulation from the metal core.
Dual-Stage Sorting: An Air Separator utilizes specific gravity to blow away lighter plastics while the heavier metals drop. For ultra-refined results, our Electrostatic Separation Equipment (or an optional water-shaking table) can be deployed to capture the remaining 1–2% of metal fines. By leveraging the difference in electrical conductivity between metal and plastic, we achieve a near-perfect separation, delivering high-value raw materials back to the circular economy.
