Eriez Ballistic Separator

Model: Shred 1

Year: unknown

Serial Number: 231176

A ballistic separator is established in the field as a fast belt, high magnetic attraction, charged trajectory method to produce low copper content steel. It uses ballistics to separate iron-rich ferrous from mixed metals in the post-drum magnet flow. This is a low-investment process that cuts hand picking labor in half. With its ability to eject both large and small copper meatballs and other copper bearing material, a ballistic separator typically increases copper pickings from 8 to 14 lbs. per ton. An average melt result for a ballistic separator is 0.16 to 0.17 percent copper.  A ballistic separator also offers low operating costs, requires no air and uses very little electricity. The key to optimal recovery is ensuring that the burden material is loose and evenly spread across the width of the machine. Since a ballistic separator is entirely automated, hand picking labor becomes more focused and efficient. Scrap dealers with a capacity of 400 tons per day are reporting the need for only two pickers, which represents a reduction of 50 percent when compared to strictly relying on hand sorting.
