Metal Briquetting Briquetting presses for metal – efficient, customized, cost-efficient

Our briquetting presses increase the value of your metal chips – whether aluminum, steel, cast iron, copper, magnesium, titanium, or other metals and alloys. With decades of expertise in metal recycling, we deliver tailored solutions for a wide range of requirements.

Briquetting as a treatment method for metal chips not only reduces volume, but also reliably removes coolant and oil from wet chips. Valuable coolants are recovered. That’s a clear benefit for both the environment and your operating costs..

Depending on your needs, we supply presses with throughput capacities from 30 to 5,000 kg per hour – customized to your desired briquette size, density, and other parameters.

The advantages of metal briquetting

  • Recovery of expensive coolants
  • Significant volume reduction lowers transport costs
  • Reduced in-house logistics
  • Defined scrap quality
  • Higher revenue from briquettes
  • Low maintenance costs & long service life
  • Improved workplace cleanliness
  • Potentially reduced burn-off during remelting

Our briquetting presses in use at metalworking companies

“After purchasing our first RUF briquette press, we decided in favour of RUF again for all subsequent systems - we were completely satisfied right from the start. We particularly appreciate the reliable after-sales service: the systems run stably and the service team is quick to respond to any problems.”


Markus Schober 

COO, Hammerer Aluminium Industries (Austria)

“We had such encouraging experience with the first press that we immediately decided to install another ten briquetting systems of the same type”

Jürgen Reichart
Multivac Group (Germany)

Free Test Pressing – your entry into Briquetting
