3000 Soda Cans Transformed | THOUSANDS of Them

nice recycling, just one question: why separate the cans to mix them after grinding?

Great question! There was just so many Redbull cans I had to lol

In Michigan in the United States, there are recycling machines in nearly every grocery store. When I worked at one of my local stores, I had the task of emptying out the hopper when it got too full. You get a little bit of money for each can returned. So when I read the title of this video, I instinctively thought to myself “Oh cool. He got $300.”

haha yep, i needed to go big this time :)

[@austing9060]

I dont have the money to afford one of those industrial shredders, so i took it another route. I reversed engineered a micro shredder to use for those cans. Truly works great, the trick is that the teeth arent as big for obvious reasons, and so i gotta maintain some pressure on the cans so they dont just keep squirming around, which is only an issue when the pile gets low.

[@awldune]

The shredding machines you have are impressive. I think the breakage (and all the dross) shows why people say cans are a bad source for casting aluminum.

[@PressTube]

i totally agree

[@boblewis5558]

When it's free (not so much in this case though!) It's FREE. If all you're doing is casting plates, rod or disk billets for your own use it's definitely cheaper than buying new ali stock. Doing all that driving around though will cost a lot these days, (not very green) plus the foundry costs. 🤔🥴🙄

Aside from storage and transport, which is understandable, was there a reason to grind the cans to that consistency? Considering you will get slag regardless, was curious if there were other reasons.

My initial plan was to melt all this is my own crucible which is much smaller then the ones Winteb used.

[@mrpugster]

Nice video man. The sand casting seemed like it took a lot of effort for the foundry guys, did they want to do it that way for something to film or is that the preferred way when dealing with large amounts of aluminiun?

[@PressTube]

They normally make vents for the shipping industry, and they use a lot more aluminum for that. But they’ve never made ingots like this before so it was a little thinking of how they gonna do it

[@MuzikBike]

Wouldn't shredding the cans expose more metal surface area, resulting in more of the aluminium being oxidised than if they were melted whole?

[@PressTube]

perhaps but melting them whole would have been more complex given the mass and size. At the end it did indeed lose some weight

[@ferv888]

Don't forget the paint and plastic layer inside the cans that gets burned away

[@thuis2476]

…and why make the particles that small before melting?

[@ltstatic3932]

ive melted aluminium before but only once, i dont see how its worth shredding the cans, i know the air pockets can make it dangerous to melt right away, but shredding it 10 times or so dont seem to make sense. You could just buy a furnace or make your own with propane and do it all at home like most people doing this will do. Maybe make smaller castings so its easier to remelt also, melting like 5kg at once dont make sense unless you end up using it all, which is often not the case, i would do like half a kilo or less per mold. You can use a old fire extinguisher as a crucible if u need a cheap one, works for about 10 meltes depending on the size. You can also use the furnace to make bullets and maybe sell those for extra income, bullets tend to be made of lead though.

[@PressTube]

Thanks for the advice!

[@MyGunDontShoot]

How much does it cost to have it casted? Do you have any experience with CNC chips that have traces of coolant liquids?

[@narref04]

How much is aluminum per kilogram there? Im only asking. Because with my math.. the cast aluminum per kilo would only be worth about 23 usd... do you fabricate anything in particular with your solid aluminum ingots?

just an idea, next time when you dump cans put a layer of sheet so you can pick all of them up at the same time.

Why not built a multi-tier grinder? Put the coarsest one on top, and it empties into a medium one, which empties into a finest one on the bottom

[@PressTube]

interesting :)

[@bricelarie6527]

Cause, usually on proper scale you separate the size what's grinded before cycling them back ... You'll use screens n vibrating table for in between ... But the use the gravity stand a nice process too ... An open flame is quite better to avoid calcination the impurities ... It's paint for the larger part ... But if you don't let it burn, you'll just de-oxidize the elements structure, so it just turn in coal like ... Maybe if you apply proper pressure you'll create artificial diamonds ... Sure, lot of things to say bout that fight for oxygen once metal turns liquid ... Sometimes, quite less ... I must admit !!! Dare, care, ride safe, clean, have fun ... From France with .
