How Much Coolant Does a MetalBrik Briquetter Recover?
MetalBrik captures up to 99% of embedded coolant and cutting fluids during compression. The fluid recovery tank routes reclaimed coolant to a recycling system for return to the machining process, reducing new coolant purchases by 50-75%.
How Does a Dual-Ram Briquetter Differ From a Standard Briquetting Machine?
Single-ram briquetters apply force from one direction, resulting in inconsistent density and variable puck quality. MetalBrik applies 40 tons of force from two opposing rams simultaneously, producing the industry’s densest near-solid puck in every cycle with no violent cycling and minimal noise.
How Do I Choose the Right MetalBrik Model?
Neff Press engineers size the correct model using your mass flow rate, alloy mix, chip geometry, coolant content, and target puck specification. You submit a chip sample; Neff Press tests densification, fluid recovery, and residual moisture, then returns a written ROI model and machine specification.
Does Briquetting Improve Scrap Value?
Dense briquettes can be easier to recycle and re-melt than loose chips, which may help improve scrap value depending on the material and recycler.
