Bunting High Intensity Separation Conveyor

Bunting, Newton, Kansas, says its High Intensity Separation Conveyor (HISC) helps create high-purity copper scrap by achieving “maximum separation of stainless steel and ferrous dirt” in shredded, insulated copper wire (ICW) cleaning applications. The HISC:

  • is suitable for wire prechopping purification and postchopping purification in ICW separation applications
  • helps to reduce wear and tear on chopper knives by removing stainless steel and ferrous dirt, resulting in a higher throughput and less knife maintenance and downtime
  • is suitable for other applications requiring high-intensity magnetic separation, including medical stainless steel separation, circuit board recycling and purification of granulated plastics
