Circuit Boards Dismantling Sorting Recycling Line

Time: December 5, 2024

The generation of end-of-life circuit boards continues to grow as the popularity and replacement of electronic equipment accelerates. These wastes contain a large amount of recyclable resources such as precious and rare metals as well as plastics, but due to the complex structure, the resource separation and recycling process needs to rely on efficient and professional equipment. Building a complete circuit board dismantling, sorting, and recycling line not only maximizes resource utilization and creates economic benefits, but also reduces environmental pollution.

Among circuit board dismantling equipment, the automatic dismantling machine is one of the core tools for its high efficiency and environmental friendliness. The equipment separates the components on the circuit board from the substrate, either by high-temperature pyrolysis or mechanical stripping. This technology not only protects the integrity of valuable components but also significantly increases the value of subsequent recycling. It is widely used in a variety of electronic wastes such as waste computer motherboards, mobile phone circuit boards, and home appliance control boards, laying a good foundation for subsequent processing.

In the recycling process, the shredder is the key equipment to achieve the initial separation of materials. Modern shredders adopt a multi-stage crushing design, cutting large circuit boards into small particles using high-speed rotating blades or hammerheads, and initially separating metals and non-metals. The daily processing capacity of the shredder can range from a few hundred kilograms to tens of tonnes according to demand, and its meticulous crushing process can dramatically increase the resource extraction rate, reduce waste, and ensure that more than 90% of the resources are effectively used.

The crushed material is mixed with metal particles, plastics, glass fibers, etc., which need to be further separated finely using sorting equipment. Airflow sorters separate metals from lightweight materials by adjusting the speed and direction of the airflow according to the difference in material density, while electrostatic sorters make use of the different electrically charged properties of materials in an electrostatic field to accurately differentiate between conductive and non-conductive substances. These sorting equipment has an irreplaceable role in resource extraction, especially in the process of recovering precious metals, which can significantly improve the recovery accuracy and enhance the overall economic benefits.

By combining the processes of disassembly, shredding, and sorting, the entire circuit board recycling line not only recovers scarce resources efficiently but also reduces pollutant emissions and lowers the impact on the environment. These modern machines are designed to adapt to different recycling needs and material types through modularisation, greatly enhancing the industry’s flexibility and sustainability.

Circuit board dismantling, sorting, and recycling technologies offer comprehensive solutions for resource reuse of used electronics. The application of these highly efficient equipment not only creates considerable value economically but also makes an important contribution to promoting environmental protection and circular economy.
