The Art of Scrap Processing

Up to 100% metal recovery boosts profits

SICON designs and installs shredder systems from 500 to 6000 HP. SICON shredder systems differ from the standard solutions available because SICON considers the shredder to be part of a complete system that not only achieves the usual market throughputs for FE scrap, but also offers intelligent, integrated solutions to recover all the metal from the residues. SICON shredder systems deliver up to 100% metal recovery! SICON shredder systems are the benchmark in the industry for productivity and profitability.

EcoShred-plant

Today even new shredding plants often suffer from  inefficient downstream screening steps. This leads to a loss of metals into the waste fraction. Our experts assure that  every step in the shredder plant fits. The size of screens, the dosing and transport of material, a sophisticated control system which supplies automatic mass balances, and an active support for an improved maintenance come togehter to produce a higher availaibility of the total plant.

SICON also supplies special compact solutions for the production of coolant scrap.

Maximum environmental friendliness

SICON shredder systems offer a unique level of environmental friendliness. Our air sifting and dedusting units reach residual dust values at the stack of less 5 mg/Nm³. We also offer solutions that cut the VOC content in the residual air to well below 50 mg. With our technology, you are investing in a safer future! Shredder operators are in the focus of neighbours and authorities nearly everywhere. We already design and install the next generation of scrap shredding plants to meet all environmental requirements.
