Eddy Current Separator

Product Overview

Eddy current sorter is a high-efficiency sorting equipment designed by adopting advanced electromagnetic induction principle, which is specially built for accurate separation of copper, aluminum, zinc and other non-ferrous metals from various solid wastes. The equipment is characterized by high sorting efficiency, large processing capacity, stable and reliable operation, etc. It is the core equipment for resource recycling and environmental protection industry upgrading, and is widely used in solid waste treatment, slag sorting, electronic and electrical appliances recycling, automobile dismantling, and scrap steel recycling industries.

Core advantages

1. Extraordinary sorting performance

• High recovery rate: sorting efficiency ≥ 98%, greatly enhancing the economic benefits of metal recycling.

• High purity: effectively separating materials with different conductivity, producing high-purity non-ferrous metals.

• Large processing capacity: the processing capacity covers 8-30 m³/h, which can meet the demand of continuous industrialized production.

• Adjustable parameters: the sorting parameters can be flexibly adjusted according to the characteristics of the materials to achieve the best sorting effect.

2. Excellent magnetic system and structure

• Strong magnetic roller: Adopting high strength NdFeB magnetic material and special magnetic system arrangement, the magnetic field strength is high, stable and adjustable, with a long service life.

• Heavy-duty steel frame, imported precision bearings and modular design ensure stable operation and long service life under heavy-duty working conditions.

• High protection level: The whole machine has IP54 protection level, which is effectively dustproof and waterproof, and can adapt to the harsh environment.

3. Environmental protection and energy-saving design

• Low energy consumption: optimized design reduces energy consumption by more than 30% compared with traditional equipment.

• Environmental friendly: Closed structure effectively control dust spillage, working noise ≤ 75dB, to meet the environmental requirements.

• Consumption reduction and emission reduction: Through resource recovery, it directly reduces mineral extraction and energy consumption, helping customers to realize the goal of carbon emission reduction.

Working Principle

1. Generate magnetic field: The sorting magnetic roller rotates at high speed, and the surface generates a high-frequency alternating strong magnetic field.

2. Induction of eddy current: When the conductive metal passes through the magnetic field, a strong eddy current is induced inside.

3. Generation of repulsive force: This eddy current in turn generates a reverse magnetic field in the opposite direction of the original magnetic field, thus generating a strong repulsive force (Lorentz force).

4. Realization of separation: the repulsive force will conductive metal materials from the original trajectory of the forward projectile out, so as to realize and non-metallic (plastic, rubber, glass, etc.) or non-conductive material to effectively separate.

Separation criteria: the conductivity of the material and the density of the ratio of the value. The higher the ratio value, the greater the repulsive force, the better the sorting effect.

Technical Parameters

Note: The above are general parameters, the specific model configuration may be different.

Widely used fields
