Non-ferrous separator for recycled wood

The recently initiated project cooperation between Goudsmit Magnetic Systems B.V. in Waalre and Van Bemmel Machine Import B.V. in IJsselstein with Hector van Moer in Melsele/Beveren in Belgium, ensures that all non-ferrous metals located in the wood chips are completely removed from the processed B-wood fraction.  It involves mainly shredded aluminium components but also non-ferrous metals such as copper and brass.  All components are smoothly separated from the wood.

In order to be able to process as much as possible, a two-metre wide non-ferrous separator has been installed.  This ensures a guaranteed capacity of the series-connected Backers 3-fraction screening plant, while still achieving a high degree of separation efficiency.  The capacity ranges from 125 to 150 m3 per hour.  By installing a two-metre wide separator Hector van Moer is able to provide its customers with an approved wood product.  Another important aspect of the use of this installation is that the proceeds of separated non-ferrous metals contribute to an accelerated return on investment of the set-up.
