Stainless Steel Separator - Bunting

Operation

A controlled rate of material is fed via a vibratory feeder onto the belt of the Stainless Steel Separator (SSSC). The material is conveyed into the magnetic field produced by the Rare Earth Head Roll where even weakly magnetic material is attracted, held, deflected and then deposited underneath. Non-magnetic material is unaffected and follows its normal trajectory. An adjustable splitter enables highly precise adaptation to the separation of the two fractions – magnetically-susceptible and non-magnetics.
In some applications, a Permanent Overband Magnet or Plate Magnet is positioned over the conveyor to remove strongly magnetic or ferrous metals before entering the ultra-strong magnetic field.

Applications

HISC – High-Intensity Separation Conveyor

Designed for the separation of smaller weakly magnetic particles (<20mm)

• Removing weakly magnetic stainless steel in ICW and cable recycling operations to ensure copper purity;
• Granulated plastic waste to remove weakly magnetic stainless steel and fine ferrous metal;
• Stainless steel door mechanisms from shredded UPVC window frames;
• WEEE (electronic waste) to recover weakly magnetic stainless steel;
• Recovering Printed Circuit Boards (PCBs) from WEEE;
• Separating stainless steel needles from Medical Waste;

SSSC – Stainless Steel Separation Conveyor

Developed to separate larger fragmented stainless steel (20-125mm):

• Recovering larger fragmented stainless steel in Car Fragmentation Plants;
• Separating weakly magnetic metals from shredded White Goods;
