Product Description

To identify the type of impurity and its position in the material flow, high-frequency detector coils and line-scan cameras, laser technology, X-ray scanners or close-range infra-red spectral analysis are used.

Contaminants are separated and sorted using various rapid-reacting mechanical or pneumatic devices; reject flaps, pneumatic pushers, extraction systems or air blast units.

Magnets are frequently used if the requirement is to remove ferrous metals. In many applications, magnetic separators are used early on in the production process to reduce the load on downstream metal separators or sorting systems.
