Machines and plants for aluminum crankcase shredding

The aluminium crankcase is a vital component in the engines of automobiles, motorcycles, and industrial machinery. It serves to protect and contain mechanical parts such as the crankshaft and other moving components, while keeping lubricating oil inside to ensure proper engine operation and cooling.

Aluminum is an exceptionally lightweight material, which helps reduce the overall weight of vehicles or machinery, enhancing energy efficiency and performance. Its ability to dissipate heat effectively keeps engine temperatures lower and prevents mechanical parts from overheating. One of aluminium’s greatest advantages is its recyclability; it can be recycled without losing its properties, making it a valuable material in high demand within the recycling industry.

The Blue Devil Twin-Shaft Shredder is the ideal primary solution to recycle aluminium crankcases. Its powerful shredding breaks the crankcases down to manageable pieces for the separation line. The separated aluminium can then be sent straight to the furnace to be melted and formed in to new automotive components.
