Eddy Current Separator

Eddy Current Separator rotor spins at high speeds, an electric current is induced into conducting metals. The induced electric current produces a magnetic field, which opposes the field created by the rotor, repelling the conducting metals over a pre-positioned splitter plate. The remaining materials such as plastics, glass and other dry recyclables will simply free-fall over the rotor, sepa-rating them from the repelled metals.

The Eddy Current Separator (ECS) is an advanced metal sorting system unit that is capable of separating non-ferrous metals such as aluminum and copper from dry recyclables.
