Product Details

High Efficiency Copper Recycling Equipment

The WOLFU scrap copper wire recycling separator is an advanced recycling system designed for processing waste electrical cables and wires. The machine crushes cables into small particles and separates copper from plastic insulation through airflow gravity separation.

Due to the density difference between copper and plastic materials, the system can achieve extremely high separation accuracy, producing clean copper granules and plastic particles that can be reused or sold.

The machine features a compact structure, stable operation, and low maintenance requirements, making it ideal for recycling businesses looking to improve copper recovery efficiency.


Working Principle

The recycling process includes several automated steps:

1 Feeding

Waste cables are fed into the machine through the feeding hopper or conveyor.

2 Crushing

The crusher cuts the cables into small pieces.

3 Granulating

The materials are further processed into fine copper and plastic particles.

4 Airflow Separation

Copper and plastic are separated by airflow gravity sorting.

5 Final Collection

Copper granules and plastic particles are collected separately for recycling.


Application

The WOLFU copper wire recycling separator is suitable for processing:

  • Household electrical wires
  • Automotive wiring harness
  • Communication cables
  • Industrial power cables
  • Mixed scrap copper wires

It is widely used in:

  • Scrap metal recycling plants
  • Electronic waste recycling facilities
  • Cable recycling workshops
  • Copper recovery factories

Final Products

After recycling, the machine produces two valuable materials:

Copper Granules

High-purity copper particles suitable for smelting or reuse.

Plastic Particles

Recyclable plastic insulation materials.
