Eriez metal separator upgrades reject mechanism

    March 4, 2015
    Model FF:  This metal separator from Eriez Manufacturing Co. monitors free-falling bulk goods, detecting and removing both magnetic and non-magnetic metals, even when the metal is enclosed in plastic pellets. Contaminants are sent through a quick-flap reject mechanism. Available in eight sizes, Model FF is targeted at non-sanitary applications such as machinery protection for extrusion, injection molding and blow molding; and quality control for granulate, reclaim and bagging stations.

    WHAT'S NEW? 360-degree rotation of the reject mechanism, which makes it easier to aim it toward the reject container.

    BENEFITS  Improved product purity and quality; reduced downtime and failure of production machinery..
