In plastics production, metal separators ensure that metals are reliably detected and separated from the production process. In doing so, they make a decisive contribution to protecting machines and tools, increasing plant availability, ensuring perfect product quality and minimizing rejects.
But the new RAPID PRO-SENSE 6 can do more than that. It is specially designed for the needs of resin and compound manufacturers.
What requirements do resin and compound manufacturers have for metal separators?
• Detection accuracy
Compound manufacturers must be able to reliably detect even the smallest metal parts to prevent machine damage and metal inclusions in the granulate. Metal separators must therefore have high detection accuracy.
• Fast cleaning for colour and material changes
With frequent colour and material changes, it is important that the metal separator is reliably cleaned to ensure the quality of subsequent batches. In addition, the cleaning process must be as quick and easy as possible to keep plant downtimes to a minimum.
• Use with abrasive materials
When abrasive materials are used, parts in contact with the product are usually subject to high wear. For this reason, metal separators for compound manufacturers must be specially designed for this requirement and be as wear-resistant as possible.
