Eddy Current Separator

An Eddy Current Separator (ECS) is a highly effective device used in material recovery facilities, recycling plants, and waste processing systems to separate non-ferrous metals (such as aluminum, copper, and brass) from other waste materials.

How Eddy Current Separators Work
The ECS utilizes the principle of electromagnetic induction.
Rotating Magnetic Drum: A high-speed rotating magnetic drum generates strong alternating magnetic fields.
Repulsion of Non-Ferrous Metals: When non-ferrous metals pass through the magnetic field, eddy currents are induced in them, creating an opposing magnetic field.
Material Separation: The repulsion force ejects non-ferrous metals away from the remaining waste stream, allowing them to be collected separately.

Applications of Eddy Current Separators
Metal Recycling: Separates valuable non-ferrous metals from shredded scrap, automotive waste, and electronic waste (WEEE).
Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) Processing: Extracts aluminum and other metals from mixed household waste.
Construction and Demolition Waste: Recovers metals from debris.
Industrial Waste Management: Sorts out valuable metal residues from industrial by-products.

Whether for recycling plants, waste processing facilities, or industrial applications, GEP ECOTECH’s Eddy Current Separator delivers reliable performance and outstanding results.
