Over 400 million tonnes of scrap are processed each year. Sorting scrap metal through testing adds value at all stages of the metal recycling process, from sorting mixed scrap into low-value and high-value materials to determining the composition of the scrap that goes into the melts and the quality of the output.
Our X-MET analyzers are used worldwide in the scrap metal processing and recycling market to add value at every stage of the metal recycling process.
