Eddy Current Aluminum Copper Separator for Shredded Electronics 2mm

Eddy Current Aluminum Copper Separator for Shredded Electronics 2mm

Product Description:

This eddy current separator focuses on recovering fine copper and aluminum particles from milled printed circuit boards. The eccentric magnetic rotor generates an alternating field intensity of 4000 gauss at the belt surface strong enough to eject metal fragments down to 1 mm in size. The working width of 600 mm handles 1.5 to 3 tons per hour of PCB powder with a bulk density of 0.8 to 1.2 kg per liter. A variable frequency drive allows operators to adjust rotor speed between 2000 and 5000 RPM based on the specific metal type being targeted. The belt is constructed from 5 mm thick polyurethane with anti-static properties to prevent dust accumulation. An industrial blue epoxy coating covers the mild steel frame providing resistance to abrasion and chemical exposure from residual flux on circuit boards. The splitter assembly includes a manual adjustment knob with a digital position indicator for precise cut point settings. An integrated dust extraction port connects to standard 150 mm ductwork keeping the work area clean. This separator is commonly installed after a hammer mill and before a gravity separator in PCB recycling lines.

Product Introduction

This Eddy Current Separator (ECS) is an advanced sorting system designed to automatically eject non-ferrous metals (aluminium, copper, zinc, brass) from mixed solid waste streams. Built for continuous operation in Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) facilities, Incinerator Bottom Ash (IBA) recovery lines, and single-stream recycling centers, it transforms low-grade residue into profitable metal fractions.

Target Applications

• Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) Treatment Plants:

  Recovers beverage cans, aluminum foils, and small non-ferrous fragments from the heavy fraction after primary crushing / bag opening.

• Incineration Bottom Ash (IBA) Valorization:

  Extracts valuable non-ferrous metals from bottom ash, maximizing resource recovery and reducing disposal costs.

• Scrap Metal Recycling (Zorba Upgrading):

  Purifies shredded non-ferrous mixtures (Zorba) into high-grade copper, aluminum, and magnesium for smelters.

• Glass / Plastic Purification Lines:

  Removes metal contaminants from crushed glass (cullet) or plastic flakes to protect downstream shredders and improve end-product purity.

Key Advantages for Heavy-Duty Waste Streams

Separation Efficiency Guarantee

Up to 98% recovery rate for aluminium cans (20-50mm size) and 85-92% for fine non-ferrous particles (2-10mm), verified in real MSW plants.

Technical Specifications (Standard Range)

Competitive Advantages for Project Buyers
