Those are transitors. They have GOLD INSIDE THEM AND THE SILVER COATING IS SILVER.. YES you are smashing up and throwing away GOLD AND SILVER FOR COPPER.. GOOD LUCK!

Thank You Buddy in sharing your thoughts on these small transformers!!.. Kevin.. 🙂

Good video thanks

Dobra robota 👍👍pozdrowienia z Polski

You need to research circuit board letters. C is for CAPACITOR. R RESISTORS RV VARIBLE RESISTORS D is DIODE.

It's years ago I fiddled with small components like HDMI connectors manually by hand. Now I solely process them in batches of not less than 50 kg. A run through pyrolysis and all plastic/labels/lacquer is gone. The metal part is then melted and cast into flat slabs. Those slabs are used as anodes in one of my electrolytic cells for removal/recovery of copper. Afterwards the remaining metal (cathode slime) is processed for gold recovery. I never use "expensive" acids for removal of base metals; free electricity from old solar panels is the way to go if you want profitability. You just recovered less than 10 % of the value of your Printed Circuit Boards (PCBs). I make US$ 250,000 a year processing PCBs in my garden shed. I spend less than 1/10 of the time on each board compared to your antiquated way, and I recover 100% of the values. First the most valuable fraction is recovered: The solder. A two step hydrometallurgical process removes all traces of solder. From lead solder the Tin and the Lead are recovered. From lead-free solder the Tin, the Silver, and the other metals are recovered. Remember, Tin is worth four times more than Copper! I never waste time cutting off any electric wires attached to the board. After chemical solder removal, all wires and all electronic components simply fall off the boards. These components are easily sorted into individual types for further processing in separate batches of each type. All wires and all components containing plastic are then pyrolyzed (in separate batches), yielding Raw Pyrolysis Oil, for later cracking into free petrol/gasoline for my car, free diesel for my truck, and free fuel oil for my metal melting furnace/free heating of my workshop. After the pyrolysis step the metal parts of the electric wires are processed, without wasting time cutting off any of the connectors. They are melted and then electrorefined. The same process is done with the majority of all the other metal components (some require other treatments), thus resulting in full recovery of all base metals, as well as silver, gold, platinum, palladium, ruthenium, tantalum, and lesser quantities of many other metals. Finally, the bare boards are processed for Bromine recovery, and final separation of the thin Copper layers/the Glass Fibers. Virtually every value of any PCB I get is recovered; nothing is lost. I process tons of PCBs a year. Picking off a few of the components by hand will never make your rich. Markings on PCBs are fx.: C = capacitor. R = resistor. D = diode. Most diodes contain a little gold, and trace amount of valuable REEs (Rare Earth Elements). Tantalum capacitors are always marked with a + (plus symbol), as they must be installed correct (only one way).

You got my support SUB. and LIKE. Keep the steam. Greetings from Serbia.

If you are processing your hdmi is acid to get the gold then remove the outside and put the rest in acid and remove the plastic later.

I like them transformers With the plates that slide out, they make great shims

Hello my sweet grandfather

time consuming is good as you don’t have time to waste your $$$ on stuff you don’t want or need 🤔

Dam..idk if this is worth it...

Excellent video brother, Thanks for sharing your experience with the scrapping community. New sub to your channel.😎😎⛏⛏🔥🔥

dremel works good, then unhook the ends and unwind the wire, sometimes it works great sometimes not, on the good ones you can just hold the wire and drop the rotor and it unwinds itself.

Would been nice to actually show us.

How to remove solution on armature

Knock the shaft out first

Dude I know this is an older video but this is the best way I seen it done!!!! Great job!!! Thank You!

Excellent!

Interesting thing!

Uhh, MOSFET transistors are really most valuable than copper, but we love scrapping them, good job bro!

I use mine to shard all my small copper wire. Falls into a bucket with water

It's Tin on that part

Thanks for your efforts. I have been saving boards for awhile thinking about starting doing something with them

Been saving these up to evently process them for the copper and the gold aswell the 3 legged transistors

Mosefts have small amount of gold bond wires in so why don't you burn and crush. You can then pan for gold and have the copper you can just sieve out

🙏. Reminds me of James 1

That’s pretty good 👍

Great idea! I'll try it!

Fantastic vids

New subscriber I've watched a couple of your videos and enjoyed them alot plus I love how your kitty is right there involved with everything 👍

Very good explanation. Thank you. I think I mentioned burning them in a outside wood fire makes retrieving the copper easier and also makes those little teeth simpler to get off the commutator, although I feel uncomfortable doing it that way. We are very lucky here in Australia as the scrapyard pays electric motor price, which is over a $1/ kg or 50c +/ lb as is! So I just take in untouched and clean the windings from the stator. Really appreciate the information that you provide with your videos.

Another very handy tip Mr Belew. Thank you.

That is very effective. I used to clean using the hammer method and found putting in my bench vice and tightening broke the plastic off really well also. I think the method you showed is very quick in comparison. Thank you for sharing that.

Some of those are actualy resistors bud

Lol

Sorry but this is totally insane lol 😆

great info.

lol, i heard your cat and it made step outside to see what my cat was meowing about. great timing, i've got about 20 flat screens stripped and all the circuit boards/strips are sitting in tubs, more silver pins than anything but they've all been saved, and another 20-40 flat screens still ready to be scrapped.

Seems like a ton of work for very little return. How much time do you think you spend on each motor? I think I would turn in as an electric motor and be done with it.

You are throwing away gold and silver

Do you have a video explaining how you reverse electroplated for the gold? I don’t have the space to use a ton of chemicals to isolate gold but what you do might be a possibility for me.

1/4 once of copper

were those baby roaches on the monitor?

We found that if we just set them in the Kiln for a couple of minutes and burn that rubber insulation off the inside of it you can just pull them out with your fingers

When I took a jar of these with plastic still on to scrap yard, they didn't want them.

At 1:53, needle nose pliers take off Cu faces with ends.

A good razor knife will cut through the fine copper then pull it off back side into a ball
