Product catalog summary

Overview
RUF Briquetting Solutions offers systems for optimal metal recycling by pressing metal chips from the metal-working industry into briquettes. This process enhances the value of residual metals and allows for the recovery of expensive cutting fluids, resulting in lower combustion and higher melting yields compared to loose chips.

Materials and Formats
Metal chips can be processed into briquettes of various sizes, ranging from 60x40 mm to 150x120 mm, with variable lengths. The choice of format depends on throughput requirements, source material quality, and bulk density. Briquettes can be round or rectangular.

Machines and Specifications
RUF systems are powered by hydraulic motors ranging from 4 kW to 90 kW, with pressures up to 5,000 kg/cm². These systems are customizable to meet specific customer needs and can be integrated into existing production facilities for 24/7 automatic operation. Throughput capacities range from 30 to 4,800 kg per hour.

Benefits

Suitable for fully automatic 24/7 operation
Compact design
Low electrical consumption relative to performance
Higher profits with briquettes compared to loose chips
Lower combustion and higher melting yield
Recovery of expensive cutting fluids

Technical Specifications
The systems include components such as a hydraulic power unit, electrical cabinet, hopper with agitator, pre-charger, and discharge chutes. Optional features include electrical cabinet heaters, water coolers, and multiple screw conveyors.

Machine Types and Capacities
Different machine types are available, each with specific throughput rates and power requirements. For example, the RUF 90 model can process up to 4,800 kg/h of brass, bronze, or copper with a power rating of 90 kW and a maximum specific pressure of 2,500-3,900 kg/cm².

RUF BRIQUETTING SOLUTIONS FOR OPTIMAL METAL RECYCLING Machines Materials Formats Metal chips that are produced in the metal-working industry can be profitably pressed with RUF briquetting systems. Through the process of briquetting, the value of residual metals can be increased considerably. A further advantage is the recovery of expensive cutting fluids that can be pressed out of wet chips and then reused. When melting briquettes, combustion is significantly lower and results in a higher melting yield than with loose chips. Metals can be processed into briquettes measuring between 60x40 mm and...
