Top 10 Lithium-Ion Battery Crushing and Separation Equipment Suppliers in Singapore in 2025

If you’ve been in the battery recycling game for a while, you’ve probably heard of EcoCycle Tech Solutions. They’ve been around since 2010, and over the years, they’ve built a reputation for machines that just don’t quit. What really sets them apart? Their focus on li-ion battery breaking and separating equipment that balances speed with precision.

Let’s talk specs. Their flagship model, the ECB-2500, can handle 500 to 2,500 kg of batteries per hour—that’s a lot of batteries. But it’s not just about quantity. The machine uses a dry separation process, which means less water waste compared to wet methods. Plus, the separation accuracy is impressive—they claim over 99% of valuable metals are recovered. I spoke to a client in Malaysia who said, “We used to struggle with separating electrode materials from the casing. Now, with EcoCycle’s equipment, it’s like the machine knows exactly where to cut.”

What I love most about EcoCycle is their after-sales support. They don’t just sell you a machine and disappear. They offer on-site training, 24/7 technical support, and even help you optimize your workflow. For businesses scaling up, that kind of partnership is priceless.

GreenMech Engineering is the new kid on the block, but don’t let their age fool you. Founded in 2018, they’ve quickly made a name for themselves by focusing on innovation. Their big bet? Integrating air pollution control system equipment directly into their battery recycling lines. In a industry where dust and fumes are a major concern, this is a game-changer.

Let’s get into the details. Their lithium battery recycling plant comes with a built-in air filtration system that captures over 99.5% of particulate matter and harmful gases like HF and SO2. That’s not just good for the environment—it’s good for your workers’ health. One factory manager in Singapore told me, “Before, we had to invest in separate air purifiers. Now, GreenMech’s system handles it all, and our air quality tests have never looked better.”

Their equipment is also surprisingly compact. The GMB-1500, for example, has a footprint of just 8x5 meters, making it ideal for urban facilities where space is tight. And even with the added pollution control features, the energy consumption is lower than many competitors. They use variable frequency drives on their motors, so the machine only uses power when it needs to. Smart, right?

RecyclePro Machinery is all about flexibility. They understand that not every recycler has the same needs—some process small batches, others run 24/7 operations. That’s why they offer a range of equipment, from compact machines for startups to industrial-scale lines for big players. And yes, their dry process equipment is a standout.

Let’s take their RP-D500. It’s a compact granulator with a dry separator, perfect for small to medium-sized recyclers. It’s designed to handle everything from smartphone batteries to power tool batteries. The machine uses a combination of shredding and air classification to separate materials, and it’s surprisingly quiet—around 75 decibels, which is quieter than a vacuum cleaner. One startup owner in Thailand said, “We were worried about noise complaints from our neighbors. RecyclePro’s machine solved that problem overnight.”

For larger operations, their RP-D2000 is a beast. With a capacity of 2000 kg/hour, it’s built to handle the demands of electric vehicle battery recycling. What’s cool is that it’s modular—you can add extra separators or conveyors as your business grows. No need to buy a whole new machine when you need more capacity.

CleanEnergy Systems takes “green” seriously. They don’t just make recycling equipment—they make equipment that’s eco-friendly itself. Their factory in Jurong uses solar panels to power production, and all their machines are designed to be energy-efficient. But let’s talk about their star product: the CES-LiRecycle line, which includes some of the most advanced li-ion battery breaking and separating equipment on the market.

The CES-LiRecycle 3000 uses a combination of mechanical crushing and electrostatic separation. Here’s how it works: first, the batteries are discharged (safety first!), then shredded into small pieces. The shredded material is then passed through an electrostatic separator, which uses electric charges to separate plastics, metals, and electrode materials. The result? Ultra-pure streams of lithium cobalt oxide, graphite, and copper. A client in Vietnam told me, “We sell the recovered metals to battery manufacturers, and they love the purity. It’s like getting raw materials straight from the mine, but without the environmental cost.”

UrbanRecycler Technologies is all about solving urban recycling challenges. In a city like Singapore, space is limited, and regulations are strict. That’s why their equipment is designed to be compact, compliant, and easy to install. Their air pollution control system equipment is a big part of that.

Let’s talk about their UAC-1000 air pollution control system. It’s a modular unit that can be attached to any battery crushing machine. It uses a multi-stage filtration process: first, a cyclone separator catches large dust particles, then a HEPA filter traps fine particles, and finally, an activated carbon filter removes harmful gases. The system is so efficient that it meets Singapore’s strict NEA (National Environment Agency) standards for air emissions. I visited their demo center, and even when the machine was running at full capacity, the air in the room felt clean—no刺鼻 smells, no visible dust.

But UrbanRecycler isn’t just about air quality. Their battery breaking equipment, the UBB-1500, is designed to minimize waste. The machine has sensors that detect if a battery is still charged (a safety hazard!) and automatically diverts it to a discharge station. No more manual checks, no more risks. As one safety officer put it, “We used to have a whole team checking batteries for charge. Now, the machine does it in seconds. It’s like having an extra pair of eyes.”

PowerCycle Innovations is a bit of a disruptor. They entered the market in 2018 with a bold claim: “We can make battery recycling profitable for everyone.” How? By focusing on efficiency and cost reduction. Their equipment is designed to cut down on energy use, labor costs, and waste—all of which eat into profits. And their li-ion battery breaking and separating equipment is a big part of that mission.

Let’s look at their PCI-2000. It’s a 2-shaft shredder combined with a dry separator, and it’s built for speed. It can process up to 2000 kg/hour, but what’s impressive is its energy efficiency. It uses a regenerative motor that captures and reuses energy during deceleration—sort of like how hybrid cars recover energy when braking. PowerCycle claims this reduces energy costs by up to 30% compared to conventional machines. A client in Indonesia calculated that they saved over $10,000 in electricity bills in the first year alone.

Another thing I like about PowerCycle is their transparency. They publish detailed case studies on their website, showing exactly how much clients saved, how much metal they recovered, and how long it took to recoup their investment. No smoke and mirrors—just hard data. For new recyclers worried about ROI, that’s a huge relief.

EcoMech Engineering is a family-owned business, and you can tell they care about their clients like family. They’re not the biggest supplier on this list, but they make up for it with personalized service and attention to detail. Their specialty? Custom-built recycling lines tailored to your specific needs. And yes, they excel at dry process equipment that’s easy to maintain.

I worked with a client who needed a machine to process lithium iron phosphate (LFP) batteries, which are trickier to recycle than traditional lithium cobalt oxide batteries. EcoMech didn’t just sell them a standard machine—they modified their existing design, adding a special separator that handles the unique properties of LFP electrodes. The result? A machine that recovers 98% of the iron and phosphate, which the client now sells to fertilizer companies. “EcoMech didn’t just solve our problem—they helped us find a new revenue stream,” the client said.

Their machines are also designed with maintenance in mind. All critical components are easy to access, and they use standard parts that you can find at local hardware stores. No waiting weeks for a special part from overseas. One technician told me, “I can take apart and reassemble their shredder in under an hour. With other brands, it used to take half a day.”

GlobalRecycle Systems is all about global expertise with local support. They’re part of a larger international group with offices in Germany, China, and the US, so they bring in best practices from around the world. But they also have a strong local team in Singapore, which means you get the best of both worlds: cutting-edge technology and someone who understands the local market. Their air pollution control system equipment is a great example of this global-local approach.

Their GRS-APC system is based on German filtration technology, which is known for precision and reliability. But they’ve adapted it for Southeast Asia’s climate—adding corrosion-resistant materials to handle high humidity and customizing the controls for local operators who may not speak English as a first language. The system even has a touchscreen interface with multiple languages, including Bahasa Indonesia and Thai. “It’s like having a German-engineered machine that speaks our language,” one operator joked.

Their battery breaking equipment is equally impressive. The GRS-LiBreak uses a 4-shaft shredder, which is gentler on materials than traditional single-shaft shredders. This reduces dust and ensures that electrode materials stay intact, making separation easier. GlobalRecycle claims this increases metal recovery rates by 5-10% compared to standard machines. For a large recycler processing 100 tons of batteries a month, that’s a lot of extra revenue.

SmartCycle Solutions lives up to its name—their equipment is smart. We’re talking IoT-connected machines that send real-time data to your phone or computer. Want to check how much battery your machine has processed today? Or get an alert when a part needs maintenance? SmartCycle’s got you covered. And their li-ion battery breaking and separating equipment is packed with these smart features.

Take their SCS-IntelliShred. It’s a 2-shaft shredder with sensors that monitor everything from motor temperature to blade wear. The data is sent to a cloud platform, where you can view analytics and get alerts. For example, if the blades are getting dull, the system will send you a notification: “Blade wear at 80%—schedule replacement in 5 days.” No more unexpected breakdowns, no more guessing when to service the machine. One plant manager said, “We used to have unplanned downtime every month. Now, with SmartCycle’s alerts, we haven’t had a breakdown in over a year.”

The machine also has a self-diagnostic feature. If something goes wrong, it can often pinpoint the problem—“Check conveyor belt tension” or “Clean air filter”—saving you time on troubleshooting. And because the data is stored in the cloud, SmartCycle’s technical team can log in and help you fix issues remotely, reducing the need for on-site visits.

Rounding out our list is GreenTech Machinery Asia, a supplier that’s all about sustainability—both in their products and their business practices. Their factory runs on 100% renewable energy, and they use recycled materials in their machine casings. But don’t let their eco-friendly focus fool you—their equipment is tough, reliable, and built to last. Their dry process equipment is a favorite among clients who want to minimize their environmental footprint.

Their GTM-D1500 is a dry separation system that’s designed to be as green as possible. It uses a low-energy air classifier instead of water, and the motor is certified by the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) for high energy efficiency. GreenTech claims that the machine reduces carbon emissions by up to 40% compared to conventional models. “We’re not just recycling batteries—we’re trying to reduce our own carbon footprint too,” a client in Singapore told me. “GreenTech’s equipment aligns perfectly with that goal.”

What’s also great about GreenTech is their commitment to education. They offer free workshops on battery recycling best practices, and they publish a monthly newsletter with tips on improving efficiency and reducing waste. It’s clear they care about more than just selling machines—they want to help the entire industry grow sustainably.
