Bunting Magnetics Co., Newton, Kansas, a manufacturer of conveyor systems, has introduced its SSSC Stainless Steel Separation Conveyor to the market. The company says the separation conveyor expands its reach in the auto shredding residue (ASR) industry by allowing users to separate work-hardened stainless steel and to purify zurik fractions and for use in wire-chopping applications.

Bunting says the heart of the system is the patent-pending magnetic grid core design. The configuration of high-strength neodymium magnets allows work-hardened irregularly shaped stainless steel – up to 5 inches in size – to be attracted, held and extracted from the customer’s product recycling stream.

“Our HISC (High Intensity Separation Conveyor), the first of its kind in the industry, does an outstanding job separating smaller fraction stainless steel,” says Don Suderman, Bunting product manager, material handling. “We took our innovation further with the SSSC Stainless Steel Separation Conveyor. The unique high-intensity gauss grid provides maximum holding force and the ability to catch paramagnetic work-hardened stainless steel at larger sizes that were previously impossible to separate. It truly raises the bar by leveraging new designs and technology and fortifies our leading position in recycling.”

With the new SSSC Stainless Steel Separation Conveyor customers are promised the purest product possible in several applications, including insulated copper wire purification, when the machine pulls out stainless steel shielding of chopped wire; cleaning wire from stainless steel contamination; and steel wire ends from clean copper.

“Even the smallest bits of stainless steel can cause damage to equipment down the product stream and lower the value of recycled product,” says Suderman. “It is imperative that we help our customers achieve maximum purity, and our family of stainless steel separation conveyors does just that. They are particularly effective in zurik purification when teamed with our redesigned eddy current separator, powerful drum magnets or our CrossBelt overhead magnetic separator.”

Bunting Magnetics also incorporates several design features that maximize the SSSC Stainless Steel Separation Conveyor’s functionality, including a long-lasting urethane belt with 3/16-inch steel sideguards to seal off and contain the flow; heavy-duty 3/16-inch steel construction with forklift slots for easier installation; custom sizes available up to 72 inches wide by 120 inches long to fit any application; standard 8-inch magnetic pulley diameter for extreme effectiveness; optional variable frequency drive to optimize separation for belt speeds between 60 and 200 feet per minute; and an optional splitter to separate the stainless steel fraction and nonmagnetic material.
