Eddy Current Separator 5200 RPM for Fine Copper Aluminium from Mill PCB

Eddy Current Separator 5200 RPM for Fine Copper Aluminium from Mill PCB

Product Description:

This eddy current separator specializes in removing aluminum and copper from shredded electronic housings made of ABS PC and HIPS materials. The machine operates at rotor speeds from 1600 to 4600 RPM with the optimal setting varying based on the specific plastic type and metal contaminant size. The working width of 800 mm processes 2.5 to 5 tons per hour of plastic regrind with particle sizes ranging from 4 mm to 35 mm. A 4 kW motor drives the rotor while a 0.55 kW motor powers the belt conveyor. The frame is constructed from 5 mm steel plate with a RAL 9002 gray white powder coating that reflects light for better visibility. The belt is 6 mm thick anti-static polyurethane with a mild diamond pattern for positive material traction. A tool-free splitter baffle with spring-loaded hinges allows operators to change the cut point in under 30 seconds. The feed system includes a magnetic head pulley to remove ferrous metals before material reaches the eddy current zone. The discharge chute is lined with 2 mm UHMW plastic to prevent metal sticking and reduce cleaning frequency.

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
