Skok Machine Tools are your Hocker Polytechnik metal solutions representative for the African Continent.

Prices for scrap metal continue to rise. Briquetting of metal chips increases the cash value of metal scrap. Briquetting presses from Höcker Polytechnik combine more than 55 years of experience, creating systems that maximisie energy efficiency, operational safety and reliability.

The storage and disposal of loose chips is not only expensive, but also dangerous. Depending on the type of material, waste compaction by briquetting offers swarf volume reduction and considerable savings in space and transport resources. Briquettes can be stored perfectly and safely and represent an environmentally friendly, safe and cost-effective means of recycling your production waste metals. 

Briquetting separates chips from coolant or cutting oils. 95 percent of these oils can be cleaned immediately and re-circulated into the operating cycle, offering a major cost and logistics saving. The resulting scrap metal from the production process are compressed into compact and convenient briquettes. Considerable additional revenue can be generated through the sale of these briquettes. The recycling and reusing of waste products also result in substantial savings in the area of internal logistics; this translates into savings in transportation costs, better utilisation of container capacity and the elimination of unnecessary storage containers.

Briquetting provides the ideal solution when it comes to the processing of short, loose metal chips left over from the machining of non-ferrous metals, steel and cast-iron parts or other metals such as aluminium and magnesium. Metalworking often produces large amounts of waste products such as metal chips and shavings, innovative chip recycling will increase profits from your recyclable materials, minimise the cost of oil and lubricants disposal and simplify many logistics processes.
