The thermal break aluminum recycling line is designed for waste aluminum alloy doors and windows, thermal break aluminum profiles recycling, adopting fully automatic multi-stage crushing and precise sorting. It effectively separates aluminum, copper & iron, plastic, and impurities from mixed materials, significantly enhancing aluminum recycling value and enabling efficient resource reuse.
This scrap aluminum alloy door and window recycling line is widely utilized in aluminum recycling plants, construction waste processing centers, and metal recycling enterprises. If interested in the related metal aluminum recycling business, welcome to contact us!
Process of Shuliy thermal break aluminum recycling line
A complete aluminum profiles shredding and sorting production line primarily consists of three core steps:
Metal shredding → metal crushing → eddy current separation
The corresponding equipment is: Metal Shredder, Metal Crusher, and Eddy Current Separator.

Below is the detailed process description.
Step 1: Metal shredding
- Function: At the front end of the production line, the metal shredder performs preliminary crushing of large-sized, irregularly shaped scrap materials.
- Applicable materials: Materials such as scrap aluminum doors and windows, thermal break aluminum doors and windows, and color-coated steel tiles
- Features: Reduce volume and uniformize material


Step 2: Metal crushing
- Function: The shredded material enters the metal crusher for secondary crushing, producing final products with a size of 3-10cm (spherical or segmented shapes).
- Applicable materials: Shredded materials(from Step 1)
- Features: Enhance aluminum sorting precision and provide ideal feed conditions for eddy current separation

Step 3: Eddy current separation
- Function: Core equipment of the entire thermal break aluminum recycling line, primarily used for separating non-ferrous metals, to get 4 kinds of final products(aluminum, copper&iron, plastic and impurities) through a high-speed rotating magnetic field
- Applicable materials: Mixture from Step 2
- Features: High sorting efficiency, aluminum purity, widely used in thermal break aluminum and scrap aluminum recycling projects

During this aluminum recycling machine line, a supporting dust and fume removal system operates continuously, purifying the working environment and reducing dust and smoke pollution.
Applications of aluminum profiles shredding and sorting machine
This thermal break aluminum profiles recycling line is primarily suitable for the following aluminum-containing materials:
Scrap aluminum alloy doors and windows, thermal break aluminum doors and windows, aluminum profile offcuts, color-coated steel roofing sheets, mixed aluminum-plastic composite materials, construction demolition waste, etc. It is especially well-suited for projects where aluminum recovery is the core objective.


How does scrap aluminum alloy window frames recycling line work?
Its working process is as follows:
- Firstly, feed raw materials(aluminum profiles) into the metal shredder by the feeding conveyor automatically and rapidly.
- Secondly, crush aluminum profiles into small pieces with the metal shredder using double shaft blades.
- Then, the metal crusher carries out ht scondary crushing, making shredded aluminum profiles into 3-10cm final products.
- Next, an eddy current separator uses a high-speed magnetic field to eject aluminum materials, automatically separating them from non-metallic components like plastic.
- Finally, through screening and dust removal systems, high-purity aluminum products and clean plastic byproducts are obtained.




Why choose thermal break aluminum profiles recycling line?
Compared to individual machines, choosing a thermal break aluminum recycling line means higher aluminum recovery rates, lower operating costs, and more stable long-term returns.
This aluminum door and window recycling plant solution can:
- Enhance processing capacity
- Ensure consistent sorting
- Support customized configurations
It enables large-scale, continuous production, making it an ideal choice for aluminum window frame recycling projects. It is a worthwhile investment opportunity.
