High Purity Eddy Current Separator for Upgrading from E waste Stream
Product Description:
Recyclers processing shredded lithium-ion battery packs will find this eddy current separator effective at recovering aluminum and copper current collectors from the black mass. The machine operates with rotor speeds from 1200 to 4000 RPM lower speeds are recommended for this application to minimize sparking risks. The belt width is 800 mm with a throughput capacity of 1.5 to 3 tons per hour for battery shredder output sized 2 mm to 15 mm. A 4 kW motor powers the system with an explosion-proof enclosure for safety when processing battery materials. The belt is made from 6 mm thick anti-static rubber with a dissipative surface that prevents static charge buildup. The frame is painted in RAL 1023 yellow using a conductive epoxy coating to ground any static electricity. A manual splitter baffle with a non-sparking brass adjustment mechanism allows safe cut point changes. The feed chute is lined with 2 mm polyurethane to prevent metal-on-metal contact. The entire machine is equipped with grounding straps to ensure electrical continuity. This separator is typically installed inside a ventilated enclosure with fire suppression systems for battery processing safety.
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
| Feature |
Benefit |
| Eccentric magnetic rotor with NdFeB magnets |
Generates an intense, high-frequency alternating magnetic field, ejecting particles as small as 1-2mm with high precision |
| Fully sealed stainless steel rotor housing |
Prevents dust, moisture, and fine abrasives from damaging internal components – ideal for dirty MSW environments |
| Variable frequency drive (VFD) control |
Allows on-the-fly adjustment of rotor speed (0–4,800 RPM) to match different material densities and moisture levels |
| Heavy-duty rubber belt with impact absorption |
6-10mm thick wear-resistant belt resists punctures from broken glass, stones, and metal shards |
| Tool-free splitter baffle adjustment |
Enables quick fine-tuning of separation cut point without production interruption |
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.
