How much can you Make scrapping Electric Motors...(didn't expect that result)...

[@davidrassler3589]

180% profit is not too bad! Thanks for the video.

Great breakdown! I love tearing down motors. I finally found a hammer to modify like yours to pull the windings!

[@jeffcoxen1386]

Was an electric motor mechanic when younger. Used a hydraulic press with chain and pliers attached to pull coils out. Had a neat set up to cut off crowns as well. Used our burn out oven to clean the copper first. Brought copper in to recycle in 55 gal barrels. Work for a major soda bottling co. now and mainly have copper tubing.

Definitely worth scrapping them out my friend, I like that hammer method for getting the windings out !

How much percentage copper in DC electric motor?

[@copperkingrecycling634]

You know darn well, I want that dust.... wait ... where is the Claw Machine ?

[@SilverScorpion]

Yea it's a big profit scraping them

[@ryaj2356]

Unsure what the scrap yard consider that copper, number one or two or what. But after comparing your weights I did get a 277% increase if you got a good way of breaking down the motors that don’t take two to three hours, do this.

[@simplescrapping]

It depends for the price that your yard will give for the motor. Here we get 0.40€/kg ....around 0.22$/pound....

[@ryaj2356]

@@simplescrapping yeah, my yard gives.16 cents American pre pound. Copper prices are always changing but that pure copper price is where your money is always at. I always melt down any copper pipes into 3 pound bars to get double the price than if I turned them in without having done that.

Iv slowly been working in my pile of motors

[@simplescrapping]

I was watching your last video buddy... You have a lot of motors there... You have to make a start and scrap some of... Maybe if you just cut one of the end from each motor and do 4-5 of them each day... You've got some good money there buddy👍😁
