Process Workflow

From Mill Scrap to Recycled Feedstock

Collection & Segregation

Mill returns, off-cuts, and production scrap are collected and segregated by material type and size.

Shearing & Size Reduction

Heavy-duty gantry shears cut oversized structural scrap and returns to uniform dimensions for downstream processing.

Baling & Compaction

High-capacity balers compress mill scrap and off-cuts into dense, transport-ready bales with maximum density.

Quality Check & Recharge

Processed material is inspected and routed back into the melt shop or external recycling supply chain.

Frequently Asked Questions

Steel Mill Equipment Guidance

What types of mill scrap can ARZIR equipment process?

ARZIR systems handle processing scrap, mill scale, production returns, off-cuts, and structural materials generated during steel production and rolling operations.

Can equipment operate continuously in a steel mill environment?

Yes. Heavy-duty gantry shears and mill scrap balers are engineered for 24/7 continuous operation with robust construction and high uptime reliability.

How do I size equipment for my mill’s scrap volume?

Consider daily scrap generation, material types, maximum piece sizes, and available yard space. ARZIR engineers can recommend shear force ratings and baler capacity matched to your production scale.

What maintenance is required for mill scrap processing equipment?

Regular hydraulic system checks, blade inspection and replacement, structural integrity assessments, and lubrication schedules are recommended. Typical maintenance intervals are 500-1000 operating hours.

Can processed scrap be returned directly to the melt shop?

Yes. Properly sheared and baled mill scrap meets the size and density requirements for efficient recharge into electric arc furnaces or basic oxygen furnaces.

What safety features are included for heavy mill operations?

Safety barriers, emergency stops, remote operation options, load monitoring, and interlock systems support safe handling of heavy steel mill scrap in demanding industrial settings.
