Bunting-Redditch have announced that they have just completed the manufacture and supply of three magnetic separators and an eddy current separator to recover metals at an overseas recycling plant designed and installed by CRS NI Ltd.

The company says CRS NI (Complete Recycling Systems) is a leading player in the UK waste processing market, designing and manufacturing bespoke materials recycling facilities (MRFs) to suit any size operation, from in-line trommel plants to fully blended waste plants, as well as original plant extensions and add-ons.

Adrian Coleman, manager of Bunting-Redditch has shown his satisfaction for having been selected as a supplier of metal separators. “Effective waste management is a global challenge and we are proud to see the plant designed and built in the UK being used in recycling projects overseas,” he adds.

In late 2020, after an extensive review of recycling equipment suppliers, CRS selected Bunting-Redditch to supply the metal separators. The configuration of the waste processing plant led to the selection of three ElectroMax overband magnets and an eddy current separator with vibratory feeder.

ElectroMax model EMAX150 overband magnets recover steel cans and other ferrous metals from conveyed waste. One is suspended in line with a conveyor, over a non-magnetic head pulley, with the remaining two placed across the conveyors.

All ElectroMax models feature compact, air-cooled, high-powered electromagnets with heavy-duty, self-cleaning rubber belts. In operation, the debris passes under the electromagnet on a conveyor where any ferrous metal is drawn up and out of the load. The self-cleaning belt transfers the captured ferrous metal out of the magnetic field and discards it in a collection area.
