Guess I should have researched a little more before typing....just found the Wire series that has a "Zig Zag gravity seperator where heavy chops are seperated from the tailings".

Rewire - do you...

So the Guidetti machine has a zig zag feature? I have yet to personally see their machines in action but all of the videos I've seen do not have this feature. It's a feature that allows larger...

I am aware that there are other systems with a turbo incorporated. I was under the impression that there is a patented portion of the turbo in the machine we distribute though. It may just be the...

Thanks for the input guys. It seems that the two of you have spent quite a bit of time watching youtube and visiting the machines that our suppliers competition produces....this may have jaded your...

Thanks Dumpster-Dee. Happy to be here!

To be honest with you devo, I had no idea what a hammer mill was until HVP made that comment. Googled it this morning and it seems to be similar. The wire enters the granulator where it is chopped...

I did get that impression Mechanic. While I'm trying to gather information for the job, I also find myself personally interested in scrapping opportunities. Funny, I was walking the dogs this...

Well, $2/lb would be great but you have to take into consideration that only 50% of that wire is copper. So, what you bought for $1.22 is really only worth ($3.31/.5) = $1.65. Still a little profit...

Thank you Mechanic688. I'll drop a line to him.

Anybody out there know if the size of granules makes a difference?

Thank you for the clarification. I guess the reason I was thinking substantial difference all comes down to the volume. Our largest granulator will oftentimes produce around 2,000 lbs of...

So I'm a little confused....read in a few places that #1 is clean copper and is based on size (not less than 1/16 thick). Anything smaller than this will be worth drastically less. Is this true? ...

That's the idea. The machines we sell handle anywhere from 175-2,650 lbs/hour of input material. Many yards don't have enough material to keep even the smaller machine running all day. So, they...

Thanks for the advice Miked. The company I work for is the North American distributor of MG Wire Granulators and I've spent the last few weeks visiting scrap yards and checking in on some of our...

We've crunched the numbers and for the machines that our company distributes (MG Wire Granulators), it seems to work out that you'll be turning a profit with anything over 52% copper in it. Of...

Our company sells and services a variety of equipment and I am in the process of trying to learn as much as I can about wire granulators and the copper recycling business. It looks like there's a...
