Scrap copper wire recycling machine exported to the Czech Republic

Rate this post

In 2026, our scrap copper wire recycling machine was successfully delivered to a recycling company in the Czech Republic. This project represents a key achievement in supplying high-efficiency copper recycling solutions to the European market.

The customer focuses on processing waste cables and scrap copper wires, aiming to recover copper from construction waste, industrial cables, and discarded household wires to maximize resource recovery and profitability.

Challenges Faced by the Customer

raw materials
raw materials
  • Inconsistent Separation Purity
    • The copper recovered using traditional methods still contained a significant amount of plastic insulation, resulting in lower copper purity and reduced market prices, which lowered overall profits.
  • Limited Production Capacity
    • With the increasing volume of scrap wire, the customer urgently needed a machine with higher capacity and automation to expand their recycling business and improve profitability.

Our Solution

Recommended Machine Model and Specifications

Based on the customer’s production needs and raw material types, we recommended the following scrap copper wire recycling machine model:

ModelXYN-1000
Power99 kW
Processing Capacity~800 kg/h
Floor Area~22 m²
Separation MethodDry crushing + air gravity separation
Separation Purity≥ 99% (copper and plastic)
Scrap copper wire recycling machine parameters

This machine uses advanced dry crushing and gravity separation technology to efficiently separate copper from plastic without water or chemicals. It is environmentally friendly, energy-saving, and highly efficient.

Implementation and Results

Equipment Delivery and Commissioning

After signing the contract, we customized the configuration according to the customer’s workshop layout and handled full packaging and logistics. Upon arrival, our engineers guided the installation and commissioning on-site to ensure stable operation.

Training and Support

We provided on-site training for the customer’s operators, including daily maintenance, safe operation procedures, and handling different cable sizes. Complete technical manuals and after-sales support were also provided.

Customer Benefits

After approximately two weeks of trial operation, the customer reported the following:

  • Significant efficiency improvement: Daily scrap wire processing increased by about 5 times compared to before.
  • Higher copper purity: Recovered copper reached a stable purity of about 99%, significantly improving market price.
  • Reduced labor costs: High automation allows 1–2 operators to run the machine efficiently.
  • Improved profitability: Recycling profits increased, shortening the investment payback period.

Customer Feedback

The Czech customer stated that the scrap copper wire recycling machine “runs stably, with processing efficiency and copper purity exceeding expectations,” and plans to expand equipment capacity and purchase additional recycling machines for processing more types of wires in the future.
