What's the working principle of copper cable granulator machine?

Copper cable granulator machine is a kind of machinery used to recycle scrap copper wires to get copper and plastic. Copper cable granulator machine can process waste copper cable wires, like car wires, telephone wires, industrial copper wire, and cable wires. Do you know what's the working principle of copper cable granulator machine? Let’s have some information about this.

The working principle of copper cable granulator machine is easy. Through crushing, air separation and electrostatic separation, pure copper and plastic can be separated. The whole copper cable granulator machine process adopts dry physical method, which means no water, no fire, no chemical, total environmental friendly. The following is the detailed working principle of copper cable granulator machine.

Copper cable granulator machine

First, put the waste copper wires into the copper cable granulator machine, waste copper wires were cut into granules. During this process, copper and plastic are mixed together. Then mixture will be transferred to air separator by vacuum feeding system. As copper is heavier than plastic, Air separator uses airflow and specific gravity of them to separate copper from plastic.

And if the raw material is car wires, we can add vibration screen to separate brass out of copper. If we deal with the raw material which has many thin wires, copper cable granulator also equipped with electrostatic separator, it can separate fine copper from plastic and the recovery rate could be assured to almost 99.9%.

Electrostatic separator uses electrostatic charges to separate copper from plastic. Electrostatic charges are used to attract or repel differently charged material. And the whole process adopting the dust removal system could ensure no dust flies around during the operation.
