By combining process engineering, equipment manufacturing, automation, intelligent control and lifecycle services, SIMVIC provides fully integrated turnkey solutions covering every stage of modern scrap metal recycling operations.

Driven by the global transition toward the circular economy, increasing demand for recycled metals and stricter environmental regulations, End-of-Life Vehicles (ELVs) and mixed scrap metals have become two of the world's most valuable secondary resources.

However, these materials present significant processing challenges, including:

- Complex material composition
- High levels of contaminants
- Mixed ferrous and non-ferrous metals
- Wide variations in density and particle size
- Uneven distribution of material value

Conventional standalone equipment can no longer satisfy today's requirements for recovery efficiency, product purity, automation and environmental compliance.

SIMVIC approaches every project from the perspective of the entire process chain. By optimizing Material Flow, Energy Flow and Control Flow, we seamlessly integrate pre-processing, intelligent conveying, shredding, magnetic separation, non-ferrous recovery, sensor-based sorting, environmental protection systems and centralized automation into one coordinated production system.

Each process is designed not only to perform its own task, but also to prepare the optimal operating conditions for the next stage, ensuring maximum plant efficiency, stable production and consistent product quality.

For SIMVIC, building a modern recycling plant is never about assembling individual machines. It is about creating an integrated system that continuously unlocks the full value of every ton of scrap.

Our solutions help customers:

- Maximize metal recovery
- Improve product purity
- Reduce energy consumption
- Lower labor and maintenance costs
- Increase logistics efficiency
- Achieve environmental compliance
- Deliver sustainable long-term returns on investment

2. Typical Process Flow

End-of-Life Vehicle (ELV) Recycling
ELV Receiving → Vehicle Pre-treatment(Removal of Batteries, Fluids, Tires, etc.) → Hydraulic Shearing / Pre-shredding → Primary Shredding & Liberation → Magnetic Separation → Air Separation → Particle Size Classification → Eddy Current Separation → Sensor-based Sorting (XRT / AI Vision) → Baling System → High-Purity Recycled Metals

Mixed Scrap Metal Recycling
Mixed Scrap Receiving → Manual / Automated Pre-sorting → Hydraulic Shearing & Pre-shredding → Primary Shredding & Liberation → Magnetic Separation → Air Separation → Particle Size Classification → Eddy Current Separation → Sensor-based Sorting → Automatic Baling & Storage → High-Purity Recycled Metals
