Scrap and Recycling Equipment

Purpose-built for crap and recycling applications, material handlers feature a longer boom, cabs that can move and rotate to provide a better view from the cab, and come in wheeled, tracked, or stationary models. Additionally, they work with an array of specialty attachments like grapples and magnets.

A Komatsu excavator set up for scrap and recycling boast several design elements that allow to perform in crap and recycling conditions. The features include including an auto reversing fan, engine pre-cleaner, wide core cooling package, cab pre-cleaner, chassis seal package, severe duty revolving frame under covers, corrugate and perforated screen package, radiator cleanout access cover and operator cab guarding.

When the material that needs removed is in hazardous conditions, the low ground pressure and superior maneuverability of a crawler carrier is the perfect machine. With a variety of sizes, rotational capabilities, and even extended frame options, crawler carriers are ready to go anywhere and do anything. 

The right attachment for the right application creates efficient operation. Attachments like grapples and magnets are essential for scrap and recycling as they enable operators to gather and separate desired material from large, mixed piles efficiently. Attachments such as hammers and shears allow operators to demo and remove materials from impacted materials quicky and easily.

In addition to metal and steel, recycling for biological materials like sand and wood is growing industry with a green focus. Safely and correctly separating, shredding, or destroying biological materials is a growing industry with a need for specialty equipment.
