For businesses handling professional power tools, products that fail inspection or can no longer be sold present a challenge beyond inventory management. They must be removed from the sales stream, processed according to the business's handling requirements, and prepared for an appropriate downstream recycling route. In Melbourne, Australia, an industrial tool distribution business selected ENERPAT equipment to improve the handling of rejected power tools. The project combines an MSB-E1200 Dual Shaft Shredder with an AMB-H2014-250 Metal Scrap Baler, bringing size reduction and metal compaction into one coordinated workflow. The reason for using two machines is practical. Whole power tools are bulky and contain a mixture of materials. Feeding them directly into a metal baler is not an ideal approach for every application. Shredding suitable items first reduces their size, while subsequent sorting prepares the recoverable metal fraction for compaction. With this arrangement, the busin

In Chihuahua's fast-moving industrial corridor, efficient scrap handling directly impacts a yard's bottom line. As manufacturing volume surges across northern Mexico, regional scrap processors encounter unprecedented quantities of off-cut profiles, aluminum UBCs, machine shop swarf, and light non-ferrous metals. Handling these volumes profitably requires compaction equipment built for continuous duty—not machines that keep maintenance crews up at night. ENERPAT recently completed the setup and commissioning of an AMB-H1075-100 Non Ferrous Baler for a high-volume metal recovery yard in Chihuahua. The installation replaced a problematic pre-owned unit with modern hydraulic engineering, providing the facility with instant operational uptime and immediate relief from chronic oil leaks.

For metalworking facilities, aluminum chips are a valuable byproduct of machining. But before that material can move into the next stage of recycling, it often needs to be collected, handled and prepared in a way that fits the plant's workflow. A metalworking company in Angeles County, California, needed a practical solution to compact aluminum chips before sending them for furnace processing. Loose chips can take up considerable storage space, complicate material handling and create additional work between machining and recycling. The company selected the ENERPAT AMB-H1075-250 Aluminum Chip Compactor, a 250-ton hydraulic scrap baling machine designed to compress suitable metal scrap into compact bales. Two factors played an important role in the equipment selection: equipment availability and material testing. The customer wanted to confirm the machine's suitability for its aluminum chips while prioritizing access to available equipment. This project reflects a common concern amon

A manufacturing facility in Salt Lake City, Utah has recently installed an ENERPAT AMB-H1075-250 metal compactor machine to handle steel stamping scrap generated during production. The project focused on a practical issue common in metal manufacturing: loose stamping scrap can take up considerable floor space and become inefficient to transport. By compacting the material into dense bales at the point of generation, the facility can make better use of its available space while improving the efficiency of scrap handling and outbound transportation.
