Engineered Recycling Systems has expanded its metals‑processing capabilities with new in house wire scrap recovery solutions designed specifically for wire and cable manufacturers. These systems support facilities that generate clean, high‑purity copper and aluminum scrap during start‑ups, changeovers, and off‑spec production runs.
The new recovery workflow allows manufacturers to process production scrap directly inside their facility, eliminating freight costs and reducing dependence on external recyclers. By keeping the material in‑house, operators maintain full control over purity, traceability, and valuation—key advantages for plants producing high‑quality copper or aluminum conductors.
ERS engineered the system to integrate cleanly into existing production environments. Each installation supports single‑stream wire scrap, stable granulation, and high‑efficiency separation, ensuring consistent purity without disrupting ongoing manufacturing. The compact footprint and low energy requirements make the solution suitable for both large‑scale operations and smaller specialty producers.
In‑house recovery also supports broader sustainability goals by reducing waste, lowering transportation impact, and enabling manufacturers to return recovered copper or aluminum directly into their internal processes. ERS provides full system design, integration, and long‑term service to ensure reliable performance across diverse production layouts.
With this new capability, ERS continues to strengthen its support for wire manufacturers seeking higher material efficiency, improved scrap management, and long‑term operational reliability.
