Seco Tools offers carbide recycling program
Seco Tools is offering its customers the option of selling used cemented carbide back to Seco. By 2014, Seco will recycle 50 percent of the carbide inserts it sells. Tungsten, which comprises 75 percent of cemented carbide content, can be recycled, reducing reliance on mined tungsten ore. Today, China produces 80 percent of the global tungsten ore and has 70 percent of the geological reserve.
Only 30 percent is recycled at present.
According to Seco, when an operator replaces a carbide insert, typically less than five percent of the tool is actually worn away, leaving 95 percent of the carbide intact and capable of being recycled.
Seco Tools Inc. at 2805 Bellingham Drive, Troy, is part of Seco Tools AB (Fagersta, Sweden), a world leader in metalworking technologies.
