Overband Magnetic Separator
It mounts above the belt and works on its own: it attracts iron out of the flow, and the ribs on its own belt discharge it sideways, continuously and without stopping.

Technical specifications
Sustainability impact
Equipment engineered for long-lasting operation and built from recyclable materials, in line with the principles of the circular economy.
Key features
It works with no operator
a self-cleaning overband magnetic separator attracts the iron and discharges it sideways by itself, so it needs no intervention while running.
It protects the machines downstream
every piece of iron pulled from the flow is one that no longer reaches the shredder knives or the granulator rotor.
It recovers sellable material
cleanly separated iron is a fraction with a stable market, so the separator brings income, not just protection.

An overband magnetic separator is probably the best cost-to-benefit ratio in the entire sorting line. It mounts above an existing conveyor, needs no floor space of its own, works with no operator, and does two things at once: it recovers a sellable material and it protects the machines downstream from the metal parts that destroy them. The self-cleaning version, also called an overband magnet, has its own ribbed belt circulating around the magnet block. Ferrous material in the flow on the main belt is drawn upward, sticks to the magnet's belt, is carried sideways by the ribs and is discharged…

Municipal waste
Municipal waste sorting plants, from the bag to recoverable material
Household waste arrives mixed and bagged. A sorting plant opens it, screens it into size fractions, separates the light material from the heavy one and extracts metals, plastic, paper and glass. We configure complete lines and also supply the individual machines, from the bag opener and trommel screen through to the magnetic and eddy current separators, the optical sorters and the balers.
