Eriez, headquartered in Erie, Pennsylvania, will unveil its Rare Earth Roll Conveyor at the 2016 Institute of Scrap Recycling Industries (ISRI) Convention & Exposition at the Mandalay Bay in Las Vegas April 4-7. According to Eriez, this product allows customers to reliably recover and concentrate stainless steel from the zurik conductive fraction produced by a fines-to-1-inch sensor sorting machine or waste fraction (drops) from a fines-to-1-inch eddy current separator.

“For wire chopping facilities, this new Rare Earth Roll Conveyor is a game-changer,” says Mike Shattuck, market manager, metals recycling. “It is the most effective solution offered today for removing stray stainless steel prior to any chopping lines.”

Chris Ramsdell, product manager, recycling, explains, “Even a minute amount of stainless steel in the stream can cause expensive damage to blades on wire choppers.

“Our new Rare Earth Roll Conveyor outperforms competitive units with its incredibly high-strength rare earth roll,” he continues. “With a magnetic field strength in excess of 20,000 gauss on the roll surface, this is the strongest permanent magnet available anywhere.”

Eriez says it incorporated its decades-long experience manufacturing rare earth rolls into the design of this new Rare Earth Roll Conveyor. The conveyor is designed on 5-foot centers with a high strength magnetic head pulley (the rare earth roll).  It features a 17 mil Kevlar belt to convey material over the rare earth roll. The belt is very thin to provide for maximum magnetic field strength on the belt surface, but the Kevlar material also is high strength for wear resistance, the company says. At the discharge of the rare earth roll (magnetic head pulley), an adjustable splitter assembly provides a split between a weakly magnetic stainless steel fraction and the nonmagnetic material fraction.

Eriez says input material must be magnetically treated prior to reaching the Rare Earth Roll Conveyor to avoid damage to the belt. Eriez says its experts work with customers to design a complete system to remove any ferrous materials with drum magnets and/or magnetic head pulleys prior to processing on the Rare Earth Roll Conveyor.
