A metal recycling specialist in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, has transformed their scrap processing by installing an ENERPAT AMB-L1480-160T door-style metal scrap compactor. This upgrade highlights how targeted equipment can solve industrial challenges while improving efficiency and profitability.
Addressing Key Recycling Challenges
The local scrap metal recycler faced several critical issues with outdated machinery:
Difficulty processing diverse materials like copper, brass, aluminum gaskets, and stamping off-cuts.
Poor volume reduction, leading to high storage and transportation costs.
An urgent need for a reliable replacement to meet daily processing targets of 1.8 tons and produce dense 11kg bales.
The ENERPAT Metal Scrap Compactor Solution
ENERPAT’s US Sales Manager, Jimmy, provided a local assessment and recommended the AMB-L1480-160T door-style hydraulic metal baler. The client attended a live demonstration at ENERPAT’s US warehouse, where the machine successfully processed their own scrap.
Key features of this robust metal scrap compactor include:
Powerful 160-ton main cylinder force for high-density bales.
Efficient 30kw operation, surpassing the previous 18.6kw system.
Versatile handling of non-ferrous materials like copper and aluminum.
Durable door-style construction for long-term stability.
With a ready-to-ship unit available, installation was completed quickly, minimizing downtime. The entire process—from consultation to operation—took about one month.
