Abstract: A scrap material recycling apparatus includes a feeder, a shredder and a separator, the feeder and the shredder mutually coupled, and the shredder and separator mutually coupled. The feeder includes a means for compressing a quantity of scrap material and means for advancing the scrap material to the shredder. The shredder includes a rotor having a plurality of cutting means, the rotor mechanically rotated to reduce the scrap material. The separator separates the reduced scrap material by fractional composition. The recycling apparatus may be part of a system further incorporating additional components, such as conveyors and/or dust extraction devices. The recycling apparatus may be further adapted so as to be a transportable system, thereby allowing such system to be relocated at or near scrap material stockpile locations.
