ENERPAT Car Recycling and Sorting Line

ENERPAT Car Recycling and Sorting Line is engineered for the efficient processing of small vehicle bodies and depolluted end-of-life vehicles. Designed to maximize metal recovery while ensuring environmental compliance, the system helps recyclers build a sustainable and high-value car recycling process.

The solution features a modular architecture, allowing the car shredder to operate as a stand-alone unit for primary size reduction. As business needs grow, downstream modules such as metal sorting systems and exhaust treatment can be integrated step by step—aligning with both budget planning and capacity expansion.

Through multi-stage magnetic separation, eddy current separation, and stainless steel sorting, the line efficiently recovers ferrous and non-ferrous metals including steel, aluminum, and copper. The system delivers a stable 20–30 TPH throughput, achieving material utilization rates of ≥95% while significantly reducing energy consumption and carbon emissions.

20–30 TPH Car Recycling and Sorting Line

A Modular System for High-Value Automotive Recycling

Key Advantages

Built for Automotive Recycling

Phased Investment, Controlled Costs
Our modular Car Recycling and Sorting Line eliminates the need for a full upfront investment. Start with a standalone car shredder to meet basic processing needs, then expand step by step by adding sorting systems, dust collection, and exhaust treatment. This scalable approach aligns perfectly with your budget planning while maximizing long-term ROI.

Standalone Shredding, Flexible Entry
The hydraulic twin-shaft shredder is specifically engineered for vehicle bodies and depolluted end-of-life vehicles. It can be purchased and operated independently to perform primary size reduction and volume reduction, providing an efficient and cost-effective entry solution for small and medium-scale car recycling operations.

Wide Material Adaptability, Stable 20–30 TPH Output
Designed around a 20–30 TPH processing capacity, the system handles small vehicle bodies and whole cars after depollution. Without the need to remove tires, rims, or large plastic parts in advance, the line performs shredding and multi-stage separation in one integrated process—supporting diverse automotive recycling feedstocks.

Streamlined Process, High-Value Metal Recovery
Instead of complex and costly sorting systems, the process focuses on efficiently recovering ferrous metals and valuable non-ferrous materials such as aluminum and copper. Automated shredding and separation replace traditional manual cutting operations, doubling processing efficiency while reducing plant investment and improving overall profitability.

An Integrated Solution for End-of-Life Vehicle Recycling

Core Equipment

Hydraulic Twin-Shaft Shredder

The primary shredding unit with a 400 kW drive, designed for rough shredding of vehicle bodies or whole depolluted cars. It reduces large scrap vehicles into uniform feedstock suitable for secondary crushing and can operate independently as a standalone shredding solution.

Horizontal Hammer Mill Shredder

A 560 kW secondary shredding machine that performs fine crushing of pre-shredded materials. It further breaks down mixed automotive scrap into consistent particle sizes, providing homogeneous material for downstream separation and improving overall sorting efficiency.

Magnetic Drum Separator

Two units installed, each powered by 5.5 kW motors. The multi-stage magnetic separation system efficiently extracts ferrous metals from mixed materials, removes impurities, and ensures stable operation of downstream equipment in the recycling process.

Z-Type Air Density Separator

Three units configured for density-based separation. This equipment further purifies ferrous fractions after magnetic separation, removing light impurities and non-metal residues to produce high-purity steel scrap and enhance the value of recovered metals.

Rotary Trommel Screen

Powered by a 22 kW motor, this trommel screen classifies materials through 12 mm and 80 mm mesh sizes. Fine and medium fractions are separated for further processing, while oversized materials are automatically returned for re-shredding.

Eddy Current Separator

Two units are used to efficiently separate non-ferrous metals from non-metallic materials. The system accurately recovers valuable metals such as aluminum and copper, significantly increasing the economic value of the recycling process.

Pulse Dust & Exhaust Treatment System

A 114.4 kW environmental control system combining pulse dust collection with exhaust gas treatment. It captures dust generated during shredding and separation while purifying emissions to ensure clean workshop conditions and compliant environmental discharge.

Intelligent Electrical Control System

The centralized control system serves as the operation hub of the recycling line, enabling automated equipment coordination, real-time monitoring, and safe system management to ensure stable, continuous, and efficient production.
