Metal chips and their adhering cooling lubricants are valuable raw materials. However, it is important to handle the wet chips correctly. Briquetting with high-quality systems is the right approach for this. Ruf offers a wide range of machines with throughput capacities of up to several thousand kg/h.

The family business will be exhibiting two compact briquetting systems at Intec 2023: a Ruf 4 and the compact Ruf Formica. With an integrated control cabinet, its dimensions are just 1.3 m long, 0.8 m wide and 0.9 m high. Depending on the type of material and chip, it achieves a throughput of up to 100 kg/h and volume reductions of 1:10 to 1:15 for aluminum chips and 1:5 to 1:10 for steel chips. The machine also separates adhering coolants during the pressing process, collects them in a tray and transports them to external containers using the integrated cooling lubricant pump.

With a footprint of 2 to 2.5m2 and a height of around 2 m, the Ruf 4 requires slightly more space. Thanks to its more powerful motor, it can be configured for higher throughputs and produces briquettes with a higher density. In terms of quality and reliability, both the Ruf 4 and the Formica, as well as all other Ruf briquetting presses, meet equally high standards. In addition, all systems are suitable for 24/7 operation.
