CBS Crossbelt Magnetic Separators

Efficient Ferrous Metal Separation for the Recycling Industry

CBS Crossbelt Magnetic Separators are designed to efficiently remove ferrous metals from moving material streams, improving recycling operations, protecting processing equipment, and maximizing material recovery.

These heavy-duty magnetic separators are commonly installed above conveyor belts to automatically extract unwanted ferrous materials, such as steel and iron, from mixed recyclables. Their continuous, self-cleaning operation allows recycling facilities to maintain productivity while reducing manual sorting requirements.

How CBS Crossbelt Separators Work

CBS Crossbelt Separators use a powerful magnetic field to attract and lift ferrous metals from materials traveling along a conveyor. A continuously moving belt carries the captured metals away from the main material stream and automatically discharges them into a designated collection area.

This process helps produce cleaner recyclable materials while minimizing contamination and reducing the risk of damage to downstream equipment.

Key Benefits

• Improved Material Recovery: Efficiently separates valuable ferrous metals from mixed recyclable materials.

• Equipment Protection: Removes unwanted metal objects that could damage shredders, granulators, crushers, and other processing equipment.

• Increased Productivity: Continuous, automatic separation reduces manual sorting and interruptions.

• Improved Material Purity: Produces cleaner non-ferrous and other recyclable material streams.

• Reduced Labor Costs: Automated metal removal minimizes the need for manual separation.

• Versatile Installation: Can be positioned over conveyor systems in a variety of recycling applications.

Common Applications

CBS Crossbelt Separators are ideal for scrap metal recycling facilities, automobile shredding operations, construction and demolition waste processing, municipal recycling facilities, wood waste processing, and industrial material recovery systems.

Why Crossbelt Separators Matter in Recycling

Effective magnetic separation is essential for maximizing the value of recyclable materials. By removing ferrous metals early in the recycling process, CBS Crossbelt Separators help facilities reduce contamination, improve material quality, and increase overall processing efficiency.

Their durable construction and automatic cleaning capabilities make them a valuable addition to industrial recycling operations looking to improve recovery rates and reduce operating costs.
