Industries Using Briquetting
Value Of Briquetting
Applications For Briquetting
InsightsEliminate metal waste and reclaim floor space with RUF metal briquetting
Bring in a modern metal briquetting machine to automate your metal scrap handling and reduce labor, so you get a cleaner, safer shop with less waste and more usable space.
Increase value & recover resources
-
- Increase scrap value: RUF briquetters typically add up to 5 times more value per pound over loose chips
- Recover up to 97% of costly fluids for reuse
Reduce waste & boost sustainability efforts
-
- Shrink waste to a fraction of its original size and reclaim floor space
- Reuse or recycle materials and reduce disposal costs
- Support sustainability and zero-waste goals
Improve safety & compliance
-
- Safer handling of scrap makes your shop safer for employees
- Improve EPA and OSHA compliance
Compressible Metals
Unlike centrifuges or gravity draining, which struggle with fine or mixed material, RUF briquetting presses can handle a wide variety of inputs—from aluminum turnings and cast-iron fines to brass, copper, titanium, and slurry-like grinding sludge.
- Copper
- Cast Iron
- Steel
- Aluminum
- Titanium
- Magnesium
Squeeze more value from your scrap with swarf briquetting.
Compressing liquids out of metals allows us to recover up to 97% of fluids and emulsions from scrap and sludge for reuse.
Increase safety by briquetting reactive metal materials
Powder and fine dust from some metals ignites easily, because they have a higher surface-to-volume ratio than solid blocks. Briquetting combustible metals reduces the hazard with lower surface area. These solid bricks can be transported without the need for special DOT classification and packaging.
How our metal briquetting solutions make metals more valuable
More and more industries are using metal briquetting.
Automotive, aerospace, government, machine shops, scrap yards and many more rely on briquetting to clear floor space, reach sustainability goals, and save money.
