CABLE CUTTERS
SWEED cable cutters are powerful hydraulic units used for despooling and powering through tough cables and rods to obtain manageable cut lengths and higher valued scrap.
SHREDDERS | PRECHOPPERS
SWEED shredders and prechoppers are used as stand-alone components for reducing bulk cable to prepare for recycling, or can be married into a SWEED wire chopping line to recover copper and aluminum from wire and cable.
SLITTERS
SWEED slitters are used for separating jacketed material from the valuable copper or aluminum.
