Optimizing Non-Ferrous Metal Recovery with STEINERT Eddy Current Separators
The recovery of non-ferrous metals is the cornerstone of any recycling process. STEINERT's eddy current separators, featuring the innovative eccentric pole system, are designed to meet this need with exceptional efficiency. With over 4,000 units in operation worldwide, these separators are renowned for their high extraction volumes and remarkable durability.
Following key processing stages such as crushing, classification, and magnetic separation, the non-ferrous metal separator recovers clean, marketable non-ferrous metal mixtures—such as aluminium, copper, zinc, and brass. These separators are essential in various applications, including processing shredded scrap, demolition waste, municipal solid waste, packaging waste, bottom ashes from waste incineration, aluminium salt slags, e-waste, wood chips, glass, and moulding sand.
The separator’s basic structure consists of a short stretch of conveyor belt, driven at the feed end, with a high-speed rotating permanent magnet system located at the discharge head pulley. The rotating pole system generates high-frequency alternating magnetic fields, inducing strong eddy currents in the conductive non-ferrous metals. These eddy currents create opposing magnetic fields, resulting in a force impulse that diverts the non-ferrous metals from the material stream. STEINERT’s eccentric pole system is key to achieving optimal sorting efficiency and long-lasting operation.
STEINERT’s exceptional separation results are achieved through the use of neodymium-iron-boron magnets, a thin conveyor belt, and a drum shell made from electrically non-conductive composite fibre materials. These features ensure maximum field strengths for precise and efficient sorting, setting STEINERT’s eddy current separators apart from conventional systems.
