For manufacturers and processors of plastics, loss of granules in production means a reduction in productivity in addition to the subsequent impact on the environment.
The RE-SORT metal separation unit reliably removes metal particles from plastic granules that have already been previously discharged from the production process. The processed product can be returned to the material stream.
Main benefits
Recovery rate of up to 98%
Resource conservation and cost efficiency
Main features
Detects and separates magnetic and non-magnetic metal contaminants in heavily contaminated material
Mobile stand-alone unit for rapid deployment throughout the production process
Typical applications
Granulate production and compounding
Plastics processing especially in in-house recycling
Recycling industry
Chemical industry
Principle of operation
The material is fed into the separating unit via a hopper. The material is separated by the vibrating chute. Then the granulate passes an EXTRACTOR-J magnet system, which separates ferrous metal parts.
Subsequently, the pre-cleaned material passes through the RAPID VARIO-FS metal separator, which discharges the remaining magnetic metal impurities, as well as non-magnetic impurities. The processed material is available for further processing.
