The thermal break aluminum recycling line is a comprehensive production line centered on crushing, magnetic separation, and eddy current separation. It is primarily used for the separation of aluminum profiles, nylon thermal insulation strips, and ferrous impurities from discarded, broken bridge aluminum doors and windows.
The production line consists of conveyor, double-shaft shredder, metal crusher, amagnetic separator, eddy current separator, and dust removal system. Its processing capacity is 4t/h, and we can also customize the recycling line to the customer’s target production volume.
Advantages of scrap aluminum alloy window frames recycling line
- High aluminum recycling purity: Our production line utilizes multi-stage crushing, magnetic separation, and eddy current separation processes to separate aluminum from thermal break aluminum profiles effectively. The recovered aluminum material has low impurities and high purity.
- High degree of automation: The entire thermal break aluminum recycling line operates continuously and automatically, requiring virtually no manual operation from feeding to discharge.
- Wide range of applications: Whether it’s complete thermal break aluminum window and door frames, or cut-off scraps and dismantled remnants, all can be directly processed by the production line.
- Flexible capacity configuration: Our scrap aluminum alloy window frames recycling line features a modular design, enabling flexible equipment configuration tailored to processing volume requirements.
- Stable operation: The equipment in the Shuliy aluminum thermal break profiles recycling line uses wear-resistant materials, ensuring a long service life and suitability for long-term continuous operation.

Steps in recycling broken aluminum profiles
The broken aluminum profile recycling line utilizes multi-stage crushing and multiple sorting processes to achieve efficient separation of aluminum materials. The main processing steps are as follows:
Primary crushing→ Deep crushing→ Iron removal→ Separation of aluminum and non-metals

Core equipment for thermal break aluminum recycling line
Double shaft shredder machine
The function of the dual-shaft shredding machine is for primary crushing, tearing large pieces of broken aluminum doors and windows into smaller materials, preparing them for subsequent deep crushing and sorting. Its parameters are shown below:
| Modelo | SL-1200 |
| Tool specification | 450*40, 500*50 |
| Fuerza | 45*2/75*2 |
| Number of tools | 27/23 |
| Capacidad | 3000-5000kg/h |


Metal crushing machine
The metal crushing machine performs deep crushing of the shredded material, and the size of the crushed aluminum particles can be controlled to 3-10 cm, facilitating subsequent sorting.
| Modelo | SL-1600 |
| Fuerza | 110*2kw |
| Rotational speed | 750r/min |
| Capacidad | 4000-8000kg/h |
| Tamaño | 4400*2500*4200mm |


Separador magnético
The magnetic separator is used to remove ferrous impurities such as screws, hinges, and nails. It not only improves the purity of aluminum materials but also protects eddy current separators from wear and tear caused by hard ferrous objects.
Máquina separadora de corriente de Foucault
The eddy current separator is the core equipment of the thermal break aluminum recycling line. It uses the principle of eddy currents to efficiently separate non-ferrous metals such as aluminum from non-metallic materials such as nylon and plastics, achieving high-purity aluminum recovery.
| Modelo | SL-1000 |
| Rotary speed | 0-3000r/min |
| Belt width | 1050mm |
| Capacidad | 10-12t/h |
| Fuerza | 7.5+1.5kw |
| Weight | 2200kg |
| Dimensión | 2980*1883*1210mm |


Sistema de eliminación de polvo
Its function is to collect dust generated during the sorting process, keeping the workshop air clean. A stable and efficient dust removal system also ensures the safety of workers and improves the long-term reliability of the production line.
