SMAR® is a family of patented separators of Non-magnetic (non-ferrous) Metals with reinforced protection. The patent consists of introducing a third roller in the eddy current separator in order to set the winding angle of the belt around the magnet wheel. This design has many advantages :
low retention time of ferrous metals in the zone of induction to eliminate the risk of burning the belt,
large reduction of radial forces on the magnet wheel enabling the use of thick belts and thin composite shell. The longevity of the bearings is also increased,
Ideal operation of the belt scraper, placed in front of the third roller.
APPLICATION
Developed for automobile shredder, the SMAR® are intended for the automatic sorting of different non-ferrous metals in difficult environments (outside, dust, humidity, chemical aggressiveness).
The SMAR® are thereby classified in incineration units, foundries, floatation, fluff installations, processing of slag, etc.
TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION
The SMAR® consists of :
a thick and flat belt conveyor equipped with double edges for tightness,
a motorised magnet wheel of large diameter assembled inside an impermeable composite shell,
a convex and rubber coated motorised roller,
a third cylindrical roller,
reinforced element bearings,
lateral protective covers that are easily removed,
a separation chute with adjustable flap by lifting screws,
a mechanical vibrating feeder,
a single frame housing all of the above parts.
