Operating Principles
The Eddy Current Separator comprises a short belt conveyor with its drive located at the return
end and a high-speed magnetic rotor system installed at the discharge end. The magnetic rotor,
positioned within a separately rotating non-metallic drum, rotates at approximately 3000
revolutions per minute during operation, while the outer drum cover rotates at the speed of the
ECS's belt conveyor. As the rotor spins at high speeds, conducting metals induce an electric
current. This current generates a magnetic field, which opposes the field created by the rotor,
causing the conducting metals to be repelled over a pre-positioned splitter plate. Plastics,
glass, and other dry recyclables simply free-fall over the rotor, separating them from the
repelled metals.
