Verfahren zum Verarbeiten von abgelegten Elektromotoren

摘要

The present invention is to provide a method of processing discarded electric motors to recover high purity copper and iron quickly and at low cost by facilitating separation of copper parts and iron parts in the discarded motors. A method for processing discarded electric motors for recycling comprising the steps of: applying a heat treatment to a discarded motor to soften or burn-off a resin coating fixed to copper windings wound on a stator core of the motor; severing the stator core transversely through copper windings in a plane substantially at right angles to a longitudinal rotation shaft (5) of a the motor; and separating copper windings (6) from the stator core (3).
