Aluminum Turnings & Borings are scrap materials generated during the machining and manufacturing of aluminum components. These include shavings, chips, curls, or small fragments of aluminum produced when aluminum rods, billets, or sheets are cut, drilled, milled, or turned on lathes and other machines.
Despite being considered waste in manufacturing, aluminum turnings and borings are highly valuable in the recycling industry because aluminum can be melted and reused repeatedly without losing quality. They are commonly collected from workshops, factories, and industrial sites, then processed to produce aluminum ingots, sheets, extrusions, and other products.
Using recycled aluminum turnings and borings helps conserve natural resources, reduces energy consumption, lowers greenhouse gas emissions, and supports sustainable industrial practices. They are suitable for a wide range of applications in automotive, aerospace, construction, and general manufacturing sectors.
