BSGH GRANULATOR / SIZING GUIDE

What Size Copper Granulator Do I Need For About 3–5 Tonnes Of Cable Per Day?

Introduction

UN medium-capacity copper granulator can be a practical starting point for processing around 3–5 tonnes of scrap cable per day. The right size depends on your cable material, daily running time and whether the line includes pre-shredding.

This guide compares Granulateur BSGH models and explains when adding a pré-broyeur is useful, so you can choose a setup that fits your daily workload.

Choosing A Copper Granulator For 3–5 Tonnes Of Cable Per Day

Use processing capacity to narrow down your options, then consider your budget and expansion plans. A machine sized for your current workload can help control upfront costs, while a larger line leaves more room for growth.

Key consideration

Heavy-duty line for larger recycling operations

Note: All capacities are approximate. Actual processing volume varies with cable material, line configuration and daily running time.

How Cable Type And Pre-Shredding Affect Copper Granulator Capacity

Long, bulky or tangled cables can be difficult to feed steadily, reducing the amount a granulator processes during the day. Cables with plugs or steel components may also need preparation or suitable séparation magnétique.

A pre-shredder cuts these cables into shorter pieces before they enter the main crusher, helping maintain a more even feed. Consider it when cable size or tangling slows the line speed down; it may be unnecessary when your cables already feed and process efficiently.

Three Configurations To Consider

Choose a setup that suits your cable material, budget and plans for growth.

BS-N130: N125-Based Line With Pre-Shredding

Approximate capacity: 400–700 kg/h. BS-N130 combines an N125-based granulator with a pre-shredder and conveyors. It is an option for recyclers handling around 3–5 tonnes per day who need pre-shredding as part of a complete line.

BS-D600: BS-D60 With A Pre-Shredder

Approximate capacity with pre-shredding: 400–600 kg/h. BS-D600 combines the BS-D60 granulator with a dual-shaft pre-shredder to improve feeding.

This configuration is worth considering for a daily target of around 3–5 tonnes when long or tangled cables are difficult to feed directly. It is a more affordable option than BS-N130.

BS-A1100: A Larger Line For Future Growth

Approximate capacity: 1.2–1.5 t/h. BS-A1100 is a heavy-duty option for recyclers planning to expand beyond 3–5 tonnes per day. It can be configured with a single-shaft pre-shredder to prepare bulky cable feed.

Consider this model if you expect a substantial increase in daily volume and have the space and budget for a larger line.

Choosing The Right Setup For Your Daily Target

For around 3 tonnes per day, start by considering BS-D60 or BS-N125. For around 3–5 tonnes with material that needs pre-shredding, consider BS-N130 or BS-D600.

If you want more capacity, consider BS-ECO1000; if you plan to expand well beyond this daily volume in future, BS-A1100 is another option.

Once you have narrowed down your options, compare what each complete line includes—from feeding and pre-shredding to copper–plastic separation. This helps you assess whether the configuration suits your cables, workspace and budget.

If you are unsure which option fits your operation, BSGH Granulator can help you compare the models and configurations before you make a decision.
