Compliance

Briquetters mitigate EPA risk by providing dry metal scrap and separating fluid for recycle and reuse.

MetalBrik Briquetter

Neff Press’s MetalBrik Metal Scrap Briquetter Machines compress chips, turnings, and swarf into the industry’s densest near-solid pucks while capturing up to 99% of embedded coolant and cutting fluids. The exclusive dual-ram compression technology applies 30,000 psi to 110,000 psi from two opposing hydraulic cylinders, producing briquettes that are approximately 90% solid. For most high-volume operations, return on investment is achieved within one year.

The MetalBrik Difference

Dual-Ram Compression Technology

Most briquetting machines use a single hydraulic ram, which results in inconsistent density, violent cycling, and variable puck quality. MetalBrik eliminates these problems by pressing metal equally from both sides simultaneously. This dual-ram action produces a stable, consistent, more compact puck every cycle. One MetalBrik unit has been in use everyday for the last 20 years without a single issue, a durability record that reflects Neff Press’s dedication to providing a press that will last forever.

Seamless briquetting process

MetalBrik Sizing Framework

01 Mass Flow Rate

How many pounds of chips per hour or per shift need to be processed?

02 Alloy Mix

Aluminum briquettes are different from steel or titanium. Mixed-alloy streams require specific model selection.

03 Chip Geometry

Fine chips, long turnings, and swarf each affect throughput and require different infeed configurations.

04 Inlet moisture (coolant content)

Chips with high coolant content may require an upstream horizontal screw press to reduce fluid content before briquetting to achieve optimal puck quality..

Target puck size and density

Scrap buyers and furnace operations each have specific requirements. Neff Press engineers confirm the right compression force and puck geometry in lab testing before shipment
