The eddy current separator is specifically designed for the separation of non-ferrous metals and is widely used in the fields of scrap recycling and environmental treatment. By utilizing the eddy current effect generated by a high-speed rotating magnetic roller, they can efficiently separate non-ferrous metals such as copper, aluminum, and stainless steel.
The equipment features an intelligent touchscreen control system and variable-frequency speed regulation technology. Depending on the model, processing capacity ranges from 4 to 15 tons per hour. By optimally matching material particle size with magnetic roller speed, sorting performance is significantly enhanced, enabling efficient resource recycling.

working principle of Eddy current sorting machine
When material passes through a rapidly rotating magnetic roller, the magnetic field changes rapidly, generating eddy currents within the conductive non-ferrous metals. These eddy currents create a counter-magnetic field, causing the metal to be repelled and ejected, thereby separating it from non-conductive materials (such as plastic, glass, etc.).
By adjusting the rotational speed of the magnetic roller and the particle size of the material, efficient separation of different metals can be achieved.
