    I made a similar machine using an ATV winch for pulling.

    This is one of the best setups I have seen on UA-cam so far. I have lots of ideas floating around in my mind now after seeing your setup. I recently took close to 100 electric motors to the scrap yard. Wish I had a winding puller setup. Can’t tell for sure by the video but do you have a compressor powering the hydraulics? And is that a hydraulic reservoir underneath the compressor?

    Heres an industry secret that recycling facilities won't tell you....
    That's #2 copper due to the epoxy coating around the wire. Buy yourself a cheap granulator, grind that shit down to a powder, and it becomes #1. You'll get 20¢ more a pound.

    • @rossbrumby1957
      @rossbrumby1957 Рік тому

      So far cheap small granulators go for US$3000 new. And granulating wire from compressor motors would need to be degreased first or would clump together with the waste in the machine. Not even sure all the lacquer would seperate anyway.

    • @TheShowgunofHarlem
      @TheShowgunofHarlem Рік тому

      @@rossbrumby1957 nah we do it all the time. We never have issues with it clumping together. Also we do let them sit for a few days after taking them out.
      It wouldn't pass at an actual copper mill, as they test every load with a gun, but a private yard would never be able to tell there was once epoxy coating on there with a naked eye.

    Place where my dad works threw out 160 of Brass, Heavy gauge copper wire, pieces of copper pipe, copper fittings and 1/4 horse jet pumps. I ended up with 388 pounds of brass and a little over 700 pounds of copper. Still haven't taken it in yet, I horde my stuff and take it to the yard in December. My dads boss said i could come by every month and they would have everything on a pallet every month so when i go by there on average there is about 60-90 pounds of copper 40-50 pounds of brass and 6 or 7 Pumps ranging from 1/4 to 3/4 horse and 2-3 electric motors. The puller you made is nice though, i usually just split the damn thing with a grinder.

    I have a couple 4" diameter pnuematic rams, reckon they'd do for a similar puller in my shed. Have the frame of an old wood lathe I can mount it and the holding clamp on to make an air powered rig seeing as I have loads of air fittings and a foot pedal control valve. Thanks for the ideas!

    Great setup, sure.
    But you gotta consider the cost of building, setting up, powering, and maintaining the equipment (plasma cutter, turntable, draining bay, reciprocating saw, and pulling machine), as well as the cost of acquiring and transporting the "valuable scrap", and the cost of disposing of the "worthless scrap".
    After taking all of that into consideration, you're gonna have to recycle a LOT of electric motors before you start making any money.

    White goods metal is such a low price, just unbolt the aluminum piston. It's considered dirty aluminum which is more than steel. The compressor shell would be #1 prepared steel since you cut it. Even inside there are copper shim plates of the piston housing.
    And the motor armature, all the scrap yard around me take that as Electric motor scrap. If your going to spend the money on plasma cutting and sawzall blades, make all the scrap count for a full return in the investment in time and effort.

      In the future we will but currently we're doing in the open we have a shop being built when it is finished I will be building a Arc furnace to melt the aluminum in and separate the steel for the generator I will be using multiple x13 motors like in my generator video connected to an engine running on wood gas
