The inductive current system is the most widely used par excellence for dry separation of non-ferrous materials. This system is used in combination with the vibrating trough which, preceding the infeed of material to the separator belt, aerates and distributes the material towards the inductive currents.
Induction separators, also called eddy current separators or Foucault's current separators, make it possible to achieve excellent separation of non-ferrous metals (aluminium, copper, brass, etc.), inert materials (glass, stone, plastic, paper, wood, etc.), and small ferrous metal parts that may not be intercepted by conventional magnetic separators.
Three types of materials can be obtained, efficiently separated from one another.
Before reaching the separation system the material must be deferrized by means of magnetic separators.
