Scancastor's recycled die casting process

Transforming scrap metals into premium furniture components with precision and purpose.

Among our customers

Step 1: Collecting scrap material

The first step in our recycling process is to collect a wide range of scrap materials, including production waste, end-of-life products and rejects. This collection is the starting point for giving new life to discarded metals.

Step 2: Sorting and cleaning

Different types of metals are carefully sorted and cleaned using conveyor belts and sorting tables. This process ensures the purity of materials and lays the foundation for high-quality recycled products.

Step 3: Shredding and crushing

Scrap metal undergoes shredding and crushing to transform it into smaller, more manageable pieces. This important process is facilitated by powerful machines that allow the scrap to be melted and cleaned efficiently.

Step 4: Melting and cleaning

In the furnace, scrap metal is melted down. During this phase, employees skillfully skim off impurities and ensure that the molten metal is as clean as possible. This purification step is essential to maintain the quality of our recycled products.

Step 5: Forming ingots or billets

The cleaned molten metal is then cast into molds to form ingots or billets. This process is carefully controlled to produce solid, uniform metal blocks that are ready for the next stage of production.

Step 6: Quality test

Every batch of recycled metal undergoes rigorous quality testing in our laboratory. Technicians use state-of-the-art equipment to examine metal samples and ensure they meet our strict quality standards.

Step 7: Reintegration into production

The recycled metal, now in the form of ingots or billets, is reintegrated into production. It is mixed with new metal and used in our die-casting processes, demonstrating our commitment to sustainable production practices.

Step 8: Continuous monitoring and improvement

Our commitment to sustainability is ongoing. We continuously monitor the recycling process through different stages and use real-time data to analyze performance metrics and make environmental impact assessments. This constant vigilance ensures continuous improvement in our processes.
