Newton, Kansas-based Bunting Magnetics Co. has expanded its line of Stainless Steel Separation Conveyors for the auto shredder residue (ASR) sector with the 12-inch Stainless Steel Separation Conveyor (SSSC).
The company introduced its initial SSSC magnetic units at the Institute of Scrap Recycling Industries (ISRI) convention in New Orleans in April 2017 and has received a patent for its design. The company has announced that it will introduce what it calls a “second-generation enhancement” to the original SSSC design at ISRI 2018. The exhibit portion of that convention is April 16-18, 2018, in Las Vegas.
This new model has been designed to expand Bunting’s reach in the ASR sorting sector for the separation of work-hardened stainless steel, as well as the purification of zurik fractions and in wire-chopping applications. (Zurik is defined by the ISRI Specifications as “shredded nonferrous sensor-sorted scrap [that is] predominantly stainless steel.”)
Bunting touts itself as the inventor of stainless steel separation, and as a company that “continues to deliver game-changing solutions for the recycling industry [and] stainless recovery.”
The SSSC stemmed from Bunting’s High Intensity Separation Conveyor (HISC), designed to separate smaller fraction stainless steel.
The original SSSC has been tested in the field for a year, giving Bunting engineers an opportunity to make modifications to the original design. “The 12-inch diameter gives a stronger field above the belt and the larger diameter conforms better to the larger irregular shredded stainless steel, which gives it a better chance to hold onto and recover the larger pieces,” says Don Suderman, Bunting’s product manager for material handling.
“It pushes the extreme high gauss field higher above the belt into the larger irregular pieces of shredded stainless steel metals,” adds Suderman. “The patented circuit arrangement also creates a larger high intensity, collective flux field pattern, which holds on to those pieces far better than anything before this.”
The new SSSC can separate and hold onto as much as 94 percent of stainless steel, according to Bunting.
“Even the smallest bits of stainless steel can cause damage to equipment down the product stream and lower the value of recycled product,” continues Suderman. “It’s imperative that we help our customers achieve maximum purity and our family of stainless steel separation conveyors does just that.”
Those attending the ISRI2018 can learn more about the SSSC at the Bunting Magnetics display there, at Booth Number 637.
