In the future, scrap steel recycling will show the following trends:

Increasing Recycling: As the economy continues to develop, scrap production will continue to increase. According to forecasts, global scrap steel production will reach 778 million tons by 2025.

The recycling rate continues to increase: With the advancement of technology and the improvement of recycling awareness, the recycling rate of scrap steel will continue to increase. According to predictions, by 2030, the global scrap steel recycling rate will reach more than 85%.

Recycling varieties continue to expand: With the development of the steel industry, the recycling varieties of scrap steel will continue to expand. In addition to traditional scrap steel, the recycling of scrap aluminum, scrap copper, scrap stainless steel, etc. will also receive attention.

How to choose scrap steel crushing equipment:

Scrap steel crushing equipment is an important link in the scrap steel recycling process. The choice of scrap steel crushing equipment directly affects the crushing efficiency, crushing effect and economy.


When selecting scrap steel crushing equipment, the following factors should be considered comprehensively:

Types of scrap steel: Different types of scrap steel have different crushing processes and equipment.

Scrap steel output: Different scrap steel outputs have different processing capabilities of the crushing equipment.

Crushing requirements: The particle size, shape and other requirements of crushed scrap steel will affect the selection of crushing equipment.

According to the scrap steel crushing process, the scrap steel crushing production line may need to use the following categories:

Dual-shaft shredder: For larger materials, a dual-shaft shredder can be used first to shred them into secondary materials suitable for scrap steel crusher crushing requirements.

Scrap steel crusher: Hammer crusher is the mainstream of scrap steel crushing equipment. Its working principle is to use a high-speed rotating hammer head to crush scrap steel. Hammer crusher has the advantages of high crushing efficiency and good crushing effect.

Eddy current separator: It is an effective method of recycling non-ferrous metals. It has the advantages of excellent sorting effect, strong adaptability, reliable mechanical structure, light structural weight, strong repulsion (adjustable), high sorting efficiency and large processing capacity. It can separate some non-ferrous metals from electronic waste.

Powerful magnetic separator: Magnetic separator is also the main equipment for iron separation in mineral processing equipment, and can also be used in scrap steel crushing production lines. The magnetic separator is made of high-quality ferrite material or compounded with rare earth magnetic steel. The average magnetic induction intensity on the cylinder surface is 100~600mT. This magnetic separator product has the advantages of simple structure, large processing capacity, convenient operation, and easy maintenance.

How to choose scrap steel crusher equipment depends on your own situation. If there are many types of scrap steel, it is recommended to choose a crushing equipment that combines a dual-shaft shredder and a scrap steel crusher. If the scrap production is large, it is recommended to choose a hydraulic gantry shear with strong processing capacity and a scrap crusher. If the crushing requirements are high, it is recommended to choose equipment with multi-stage crushing function.

Here are some specific suggestions:

For mixed scrap steel, it is recommended to choose a hammer crusher with multiple crushing methods.

For scrap steel with larger thickness, it is recommended to give priority to a dual-shaft shredder or scrap steel shearing machine for preprocessing.

For scrap steel that requires smaller crushing particle size, the problem of particles can be solved by using the screen aperture.

In short, scrap steel recycling will show a good development trend in the future. In the scrap recycling process, the choice of scrap crushing equipment is crucial. Appropriate scrap steel crushing equipment should be selected according to the actual situation to improve crushing efficiency, crushing effect and economy.
