Aluminum Recycling Furnaces & Metal Recovery Equipment
Dynamo’s metal recycling furnace range supports aluminum scrap remelting, dross recovery and automotive wheel recycling. Select an industrial aluminum recycling furnace by the incoming material, preparation requirements, recoverable metal content and required output—not capacity alone.
As aluminum scrap recycling equipment for secondary aluminum production, these systems serve foundries, recyclers and manufacturing melt shops. A recycling line may also require sorting, approved drying or preparation, molten-metal handling and ingot casting. Those process requirements must be defined for the selected feedstock and installation.
Choose Aluminum Recycling Equipment by Feedstock
| Incoming material | Product to review | Selection focus |
|---|---|---|
| Aluminum dross and approved skimmings | GDR-B dross recovery furnace | Entrained metallic aluminum, feed condition and residue handling |
| Prepared aluminum scrap and foundry returns | GDR-C rotary scrap recycling furnace | Charge size, alloy segregation, preparation and remelting duty |
| Automotive aluminum wheels and rim sections | GM-P aluminum wheel melting furnace | Wheel geometry, inserts, coatings and charging method |
| Prepared machining chips | GM-M chip melting furnace | Chip condition, preparation and recovery requirements |
| Chips with compatible clean scrap | GM-G chip and scrap melting furnace | Approved feed blend and process configuration |
For aluminum recycling plant equipment, evaluate the complete material flow from scrap preparation to recovered aluminum and final ingot. Use our recycling-line selection guide for the engineering checklist. Recoverable metal yield, operating cost and residue treatment depend on feedstock and operating conditions; they are not guaranteed by a furnace name.
Our Metal Recycling Furnace Series
The GDR-B aluminum dross recycling furnace focuses on metallic aluminum recovery from dross generated during melting, holding and casting. Confirm the dross stream, feed condition and process requirements before selection.
The GDR-C aluminum scrap rotary furnace is the product to review for prepared scrap, casting returns and compatible variable aluminum scrap streams. Rotation does not establish vessel tilting, salt use or suitability for every coated material.
The GM-P aluminum wheel melting furnace, also known as Rim Eater, targets automotive alloy wheel scrap. Review wheel dimensions, preparation, charging access and alloy segregation rather than treating it as a universal scrap furnace.
Applications of Metal Recycling Furnaces
Secondary aluminum smelting, foundry-return recycling and automotive wheel recovery have different feedstock and metal-quality requirements. Our metal-recycling application guide covers plant planning, while the scrap and dross process guide explains the material-stream distinction.
For closed-loop aluminum recycling, assess segregation of pre-consumer production scrap and post-consumer scrap, metal sampling, preparation, emissions control and downstream casting as one system. Contact Dynamo to review the furnace configuration and project support available for your location.
