ACSR & ACSS Chopping Line
Our inline chopping solution provides clean division of ferrous and non-ferrous materials, in ACSR and ACSS processing applications. This system combines powerful linear chopping capabilities, despooling and chopping cable directly from the reel, and separating the steel and aluminum with high-power rare-earth magnetic separation technology to deliver exceptional recovery rates.
SWEED’s inline linear ACSR and ACSS chopping solutions can easily be married into a wire chopping line for further processing and size reduction.
MS Series Shredders
Built for bulk feeding of wire and cable, the MS Series delivers efficient size reduction while preparing materials for downstream separation. These powerful shredders feature large chambers for processing bigger loads without bridging, and their controlled speed ensures optimal material preparation without compromising downstream processing. The MS Series can operate as a standalone component or be seamlessly integrated into a wire chopping line, offering versatility to meet varying operational needs.
CA8000 Smart Shear
The CA8000 Smart Shear represents the pinnacle of pre-processing capability for wire and cable recycling operations. This hydraulic shear makes quick work of spooled material and effortlessly pulls cable of virtually any size directly into its robust feedworks. It is capable of cutting cable to specific lengths and features a built-in 2,000-pound pull, eliminating hours of labor-intensive cable handling. The unit is available in stationary, mobile, or skid-mounted configurations and is built to withstand the harsh environmental conditions in which it may be required to work.
