ENERPAT has successfully completed the installation and commissioning of an MSA-F600 Single Shaft Shredder and BM-1090 Copper Briquette Machine for a precision machining manufacturer in Ellange, Luxembourg.
Founded in 1918, the customer is a third-generation family-owned company specializing in precision machining and metal component manufacturing. As production expanded, the company sought a more efficient and environmentally friendly solution for recycling copper machining chips while reducing manual handling and improving overall operational efficiency.
Following a detailed technical evaluation, ENERPAT delivered a complete Metal Chips Recycling System that converts loose copper chips into high-density briquettes, helping the customer streamline material handling, improve workplace cleanliness, and increase the recycling value of copper scrap.
Customer Challenges
Like many precision machining companies across Europe, the customer faced several common recycling challenges:
Loose copper turnings occupied valuable production and storage space.
Long, tangled copper chips were difficult to handle and transport manually.
Increasing labour costs created pressure to improve automation.
Environmental requirements encouraged cleaner and more efficient recycling processes.
Low-density copper chips resulted in higher storage and transportation costs before recycling.
When selecting a supplier, the customer placed particular emphasis on competitive pricing, equipment reliability, and professional after-sales support.
ENERPAT Solution
To address these challenges, ENERPAT supplied an integrated copper chip recycling solution consisting of:
The recycling process is simple and highly efficient.
First, loose and tangled copper turnings are fed into the single shaft shredder, where they are reduced into a more uniform size for easier downstream handling. The shredded material is then transferred to the copper briquette machine, which compresses the copper chips under high hydraulic pressure into dense briquettes without the need for additional binders.
This integrated system creates a continuous recycling workflow, reducing manual handling while improving operational efficiency and workshop safety.
