THE SHREDDER
The Rivergate Scrap Metals facility in North Portland
features a state-of-the-art American Pulverizer
shredder, a crew experienced in ferrous recycling
and a yard designed for quick drop-off and
turnaround.
Process
Incoming loads are inspected at an easy to access
scalehouse before being directed to an unloading area. A
separate outbound scale keeps traffic moving and ensures a
quick return trip.
Multiple cranes with grapples and magnets quickly unload
vehicles, sort and select material and keep a steady flow on
the shredder's infeed conveyor.
Heavy and structural steel is handled in a separate area of
the yard, which also includes a shear/baler/logger.
Shred material from the off-feed conveyor is ready for
weighing and loading.
