BAS Eddy Current Separators, which have the highest capacity and widest band size in Turkey, have started their challenging duties at the waste separation facility in South Europe. The separators, which have a band width of 1.650 mm, are candidates to be the apple of the eye of the facility, which sorts more than 45 tons of waste per hour.
BAS Non-Ferrous Metal Separators
As is known, Eddy Current separators undertake the most critical task in separating non-ferrous metals from piles. These special machines, especially used in the recycling of aluminum, benefit from the technology known as Eddy or eddy current. Eddy current is defined as the current that occurs in conductors in response to a variable magnetic field. Eddy current is represented as tight loops parallel to the magnetic field plane. According to Lenz’s law, this current creates a vortex-shaped flow in response to the variable magnetic field. The magnetic force created in this way pushes the non-ferrous metals in the pile moving on the conveyor belt and removes them from the pile.
South Europe waste sorting plant purchased 3 units of the model with 1.650 mm band width. When choosing Eddy Current separators, the number of magnetic poles is as important as the band width. BAS separators, which stand out with 12, 24 and 48 pole options depending on the size of the parts to be sorted, provided the plant with the 12-pole model suitable for an average part size
of 150 mm.
In the BAS Eddy Current Separator catalogue, standard models have a belt width scale ranging from 500 mm to 1400 mm. For special orders, BAS’s expert engineering and manufacturing staff can produce solutions suitable for every need. Again, the BAS team is with you to determine which of the 12, 24 and 48 pole models is suitable for you according to your part size. Depending on the part size and feeding capacity criteria, vibro feeder models can be one of your biggest supporters in a more efficient separation operation. Finally, with special models equipped with a magnetic drum and pre-separation feature, you can separate both ferrous and non-ferrous metals in a single device. BAS equipment, which is a pioneer in separation, is a candidate to be the most reliable and efficient equipment of your facility.
