Low Maintenance ECS Non Ferrous Metal Separator for WEEE Recycling Facility

Low Maintenance ECS Non Ferrous Metal Separator for WEEE Recycling Facility

Product Description:

Small-scale e-waste recyclers and precious metal refiners will appreciate this benchtop eddy current separator designed for laboratory and small production use. The machine has a working width of 200 mm processing 20 to 100 kilograms per hour of crushed PCB or IC chip residue. Rotor speed is adjustable from 1000 to 5000 RPM via a small VFD mounted on the control panel. A 0.75 kW motor powers the system using standard 220V single-phase power making it suitable for workshop installation. The belt is 3 mm thick anti-static polyurethane with a smooth white surface that contrasts with dark PCB powder. The frame is constructed from 3 mm aluminum sheet with a clear anodized finish that resists chemical cleaning agents. The magnetic rotor uses neodymium magnets in an eccentric arrangement generating 3500 gauss peak field strength. A simple sliding splitter baffle allows manual adjustment of the separation point. The unit dimensions are 800 mm by 500 mm by 600 mm with a total weight of 80 kilograms. This separator is ideal for precious metal refiners who need to separate base metals before chemical processing.

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

• Built for 24/7 harsh operation

  Reinforced frame, sealed bearings, and oversized shaft – tested in MSW plants handling >30% moisture and 15% abrasive content.

• Lower operating cost

  Energy-efficient rotor design consumes 20-30% less power than traditional models at same throughput.

• Easy integration

  Bolt-on design with standard inlet/outlet heights; can be retrofitted into existing conveyor lines within 2 days.

• Global after-sales support

  Spare parts (belts, bearings, rotor modules) available from regional warehouses. 12-month warranty + remote troubleshooting.
