Metalpress 150 EVO: Industrial-Grade Reliability for Those Who Machine All Day Long

For those who produce wood chips on a continuous basis

The Metalpress 150 EVO Briquetting Machine is designed for medium-small mechanical workshops with higher volumes of metal chips that require a robust machine with greater production capacity, effectively separating the coolant during pressing and increasing the commercial value of the chips for delivery to collection centers or foundries.

New Oil Cooling System with Continuous Off-Line Filtration: Guaranteed Continuous Operation

The new oil cooling system consists of an air/oil heat exchanger, a filter, and a self-contained motor-pump unit. It is designed to ensure continuous oil purification by maintaining the oil at an optimal temperature, preventing overheating, reducing component wear, and consequently minimizing long-term maintenance and machine downtime.

Excellent design for integration into our centralized systems

The Metalpress 150 EVO is designed to integrate into COMAFER’s automated centralized systems with the IL 500P conveyor belt for chip loading and the IL30 conveyor belt for briquette unloading.

PLC with an integrated display inside the electrical cabinet: minimal operator interaction.

Designed to minimize operator interaction. It provides general management and control of the machine.

Standard Components and Features

The Metalpress 150 EVO is equipped with a base that doubles as an oil reservoir, a gearmotor for the agitator, a hydraulic cylinder for the drawer, a hydraulic cylinder for the compactor, inductive proximity sensors, a hydraulic system with a cast iron pump, an oil cooling system with continuous off-line filtration, a briquette ejection system with a partition equipped with a hydraulic cylinder, and an electrical control panel with a PLC. With dimensions of 1250 × 1780 × 1660 mm and a weight of 1080 kg, it can be easily installed even in non-dedicated spaces. The total installed power is 10 kW.

Compatible materials

Aluminum, steel, stainless steel, titanium, cast iron, copper, brass, bronze, nickel, and other ferrous and non-ferrous metals. For non-standard materials, free sample testing is available at COMAFER’s R&D department.

Measurable operational benefits

Briquetting with the Metalpress 150 EVO reduces volume by up to 90%, recycling costs by 70%, and handling costs by 80%. The briquettes offer 50% higher commercial value than loose chips and 90% higher melting yield. The briquetting process recovers up to 90% of the expensive coolant, allowing it to be reused in the machine tool and eliminating waste.
