Non Ferrous Sorting
The waste of the shredding systems contains various non-ferrous metals which can be separated using various technologies.
The waste of a typical shredding system is a mixture of non-ferrous metals, non-metals, and fluff. This kind of material, when sorted, can be recycled. The non-ferrous sorting systems are designed to separate various non-ferrous metals and non-metals from dust and fluff.
Various technologies can be used to separate various metals and non-metals. A typical solution is a mixture of multiple technologies based on the composition of the incoming material and the type of material that requires separation.
We at Intelligent Edge understand in depth the material that needs to separate along with the effective technologies that sort these metals and non-metals.
We have partnered with various organizations to supply a turnkey solution for your material sorting needs.
Non-Ferrous Sorting Machines
Know MoreThe residue from a shredding system is a mixture of non ferrous metals, non metals and fluff. Sorting separates the valuable metals from that mixture so they can be recycled, which is often where a large share of a shredder line profit sits.
Eddy current separators, magnetic separators, stainless steel sorters, X-ray transmission and X-ray fluorescence sorters, and heavy media systems. Each addresses a different property of the material, such as conductivity, magnetism, density or elemental composition.
No. A working solution is almost always a sequence of technologies chosen around the composition of the incoming material and the purity you need at the end. Selecting the wrong order is a common reason sorting lines underperform.
This depends on the feed, but well designed aluminium sorting lines achieve impurity removal above 99 percent, and iron sorting lines recover above 95 percent of the metal left in tailings.
Yes. We work with partner organisations to supply turnkey sorting lines, including the pre-sorting, separation and dedusting stages needed to make the output usable at a smelter.
