Description
Metal Detection Bale Inspection Conveyors for baled recyclable materials as either an independent stand-alone system or as the in-feed conveyor to the Shredder line. They can be used with bales of post-consumer products such as: carpet, plastic film, milk jugs, plastic bottles, clothing, or fiber material. They are designed to remove objects like: aluminum cans, scrap metal, hammer heads, and more. Don’t let this material damage your equipment or contaminate your product stream.
How It Works:
Bales of material are usually placed by fork lift on the in-feed portion of the conveyor against optional backstops. They are then run through a Metal Detector that is sized for your bales to detect metal contamination within the bale itself. The triple coil detector checks for all types of metal objects within the bale. It then double checks it before conveying the bale out. The bale can then be down loaded or feed directly onto an inclined Shredder Feeder Conveyor into the Shredder. The inspection conveyor can also paint mark the contaminated bales so they can be set in a segregated area. The clean bales can then be placed in the “clean” storage stack or fed into your Shredder.
