Efficient separation of non-ferrous metals is a crucial aspect of recycling and waste management industries. At MAGWELL Industries, we are committed to providing high-performance Eddy Current Separators that significantly improve metal recovery processes for businesses across Chennai, Tamilnadu, and India. Designed with cutting-edge magnetic technology, our equipment helps streamline operations, ensuring higher recovery rates of valuable materials like aluminum, copper, and brass.
In this post, we’ll take a closer look at what makes our Eddy Current Separators stand out and why they are vital for industries aiming for efficiency and sustainability.
What is an Eddy Current Separator?
An Eddy Current Separator is a piece of magnetic separation equipment used primarily for recovering non-ferrous metals. The system features a high-speed rotating rotor that generates powerful eddy currents. These currents create opposing magnetic fields within the conductive non-ferrous metals (such as aluminum and copper), pushing them away from the other materials on the conveyor. This results in a highly effective separation process, distinguishing non-metallic items from valuable non-ferrous metals.
Key Features of MAGWELL Eddy Current Separators
At MAGWELL Industries, we understand that reliability and performance are essential. Our separators offer the following features to enhance productivity and durability:
- Heavy-Duty Bearings and Motors: Built to withstand tough industrial environments and ensure consistent operation.
- High-Powered Neodymium-Iron-Boron Magnets: Maximizing separation efficiency with powerful magnetic forces.
- Customizable Magnetic Rotors: Different designs and sizes to meet the unique requirements of various applications.
- Durable Urethane Belt: Designed for long-lasting performance even in demanding applications.
- Side Skirts: Keep the material confined on the belt to minimize spillage and loss.
How Eddy Current Separators Work
Our Eddy Current Separator systems include a short belt conveyor where materials are carried towards the rotor. The ECS rotor, located at the end of the conveyor, uses high-intensity rare-earth magnets that create a magnetic field as it spins. When the rotor spins rapidly, it induces eddy currents within any conductive metals on the conveyor. These eddy currents create an opposing magnetic field, which repels the non-ferrous metals, separating them from other materials that are not affected by the magnetic field. The non-ferrous metals are diverted into a collection bin, while the non-metallic materials fall off the end of the conveyor.
Applications of Eddy Current Separators
MAGWELL’s Eddy Current Separators are incredibly versatile and are used in a variety of industries and applications, such as:
- Aluminum Can Recovery: Achieve up to 98% recovery of aluminum cans from mixed recyclable materials.
- Shredder Residue and Fluff: Efficient separation of stainless steel, copper, aluminum, and brass from shredder residue.
- Waste-to-Energy Plants: Recovery of non-ferrous metals from refuse streams and ash.
- Foundry Sand Reclamation: Extract valuable aluminum scrap from foundry sand, reducing waste and maximizing resource recovery.
- Production Waste: Separate non-ferrous metal chips from waste streams in industrial processes.
