The process of recovering the aluminium from scrap vehicles begins with an engine crusher from JMC McIntyre. The JMC McIntyre Engine Crusher can break between 3 and 5 tonnes every hour – that’s up to 30 engines – enabling the different components to be separated ready for the next stages of recovery and recycling. Although the crushing force is 120 tonnes, the machine is remarkably compact. Operated by electricity or diesel, the JMC Engine Crusher is also adept at handling electric motors and alloy wheels.
