Semi Automatic PCB Recycling Machine

Semi Automatic PCB Recycling Machine

Introduction / Overview
The Semi Automatic PCB Recycling Machine is an essential component of any e-waste recycling facility. After electronic devices are dismantled, the separated PCBs can be processed efficiently to recover valuable metals like copper, ferrous metals, and aluminum.
​
The Rudra Family of PCB Recycling Machines offers multiple models designed for different capacities and automation levels:​

  1. Rudra 1000 – Medium-scale semi-automatic plant, recommended for 1000–1500 tons/year.

  2. Rudra 2000 – Medium-scale semi-automatic plant, recommended for 1500 - 3000 tons/year.

  3. Rudra 3000 – Large scale semi-automatic plant, recommended for 3000 - 5000 tons/year. 

  4. Rudra 5000, 10000 – Fully automated plants for large-scale operations.
     

Key Highlights of Semi Automatic Models (1000, 2000 and 3000):

  • Semi-automatic operation ensures consistent output with minimal manual effort.
     

  • Flexible design allows upgrades to fully automatic when needed.
     

  • Series of loosely coupled machines maintain balanced processing.
     

  • Suitable for medium-scale PCB recycling plants.

 PCB Recycling Process (Step-by-Step)

The semi-automatic PCB recycling process is simple yet effective.

  • Collection & Dismantling

    • PCBs are separated from discarded electronic goods.

    • Preparation includes removing large components and hazardous materials.
       

  • Shredding

    • PCB Shredder reduces boards into smaller, manageable pieces.
       

  • Separation of Metals

    • Magnetic Separator removes ferrous metals.

    • Copper and other metals are separated using specialized metal separation machines.
       

  • Granulation

    • Granulation Mill processes shredded PCBs into fine particles for easier recovery.​​

​

  • Dust Collection

    • Cyclone Separator and Pulse Jet Dust Collector remove dust and fine particles.
       

  • Metal Recovery

    • Extracted metals like copper and ferrous metals are collected for reuse.

    • Optional aluminum recovery can be done with proper pre-processing.
