MACKMA – BTF-P Line - Briquetter Machine for Grinding Sludge [made in Italy]

The new BTF-P line of briquetting machines is the line dedicated to grinding sludge, machining waste from sharpening, polishing or grinding operations, consisting of carbide powder mixed with oils or emulsions of oil and water.
They are classified as hazardous and must be handled appropriately.

Capable of pressing up to 5000 kg per Cm2

With Mackma briquetting machines, you save resources and increase profits:

Volume reduction -90% *: Waste storage space, costs and time are reduced and improve of internal handling and external transport.

Handling and transport -80% *: The volumetric reduction of the product allows for fewer deliveries of the waste or product to specialised waste management companies or to the foundry, resulting in cost savings.

Increased commercial value and melt yield +70% *: Briquettes intended for foundries have a higher commercial value than shavings because, during melting, they significantly increase the material yield and can be loaded into the melting furnaces without prior treatment of the emulsion liquids. They are qualitatively better than swarf, which on the other hand is subject to oxidation, reduction and shrinkage.

Recovery of any internal liquids +20% *: Metal shavings can contain significant quantity of oils and emulsions, which are often very expensive. During the process briquetting process, it is possible to recover approximately up to 98% of liquid inside the swarf. Through the hydraulic circuit inside the briquetting machine, the liquids present will be sent back to the processing centres, resulting in a reduction in product consumption and economic savings

* Values in percentages refer to tests on a sample of homogeneous material
