The Turbo Separator includes a variable-speed shaft which is fitted with paddles. Beneath the rotating shaft is a number of screens which are available in a variety of sizes and designs to suit individual applications. The Separator shaft typically runs between 100 rpm and 1,000 rpm. This generates air flow as well as providing the centrifugal and mechanical forces required for packaging separation.
The material to be separated enters the separation chamber and comes into contact with the primary paddles which open the packaging. Paddles and screens are configured to achieve maximum separation.
The Separator is used across the world for a wide range of applications:
Typical feed materials:
- Plasterboard
- Packaged food
- Coffee pods
- Tea bags
- Packaged drinks
- Paint cans
- Polymer bottles
Typical recovered products:
- Organics for Anerobic Digestion
