Compressing machine for aluminum and copper chips (also called: puck maker / briquette maker) In metal processing large amounts of waste products such as grinding sludge and metal swarf or shavings occur. Their value is not recognized or remains unused. Usually due to the high content of cooling lubricants they have to be disposed of at very high cost or achieve only low scrap revenue. However these wastes could optimized by using a high performance briquetting machine from HÖCKER POLYTECHNIK. Whether it concerns the processing of short, loose metal swarf from mechanical machining of non-ferrous metal such as aluminium, copper or magnesium, the briquetting machine BrickStar MD is the ideal solution.
