Eriez is an acknowledged authority in the development and manufacture of metal separation and detection equipment for the recycling and waste processing industry.
Eriez designs solutions to ensure optimal fit for installation and separation, often resulting in manufacture of custom-built equipment at no or negligible extra cost.
Field sales engineers conduct free, no obligation, on-site surveys to assess a client’s separation and detection requirements, whether this involves the planning of new facilities or the modernisation of existing systems. Eriez will always recommend the best solution in terms of performance and cost-effectiveness.
Magnetic Separators
The customer can choose from individual units to modular systems. For ferrous separation, Eriez manufactures an extensive range of magnetic separators, including overband magnets (permanent and electromagnetic suspended magnets), magnetic pulleys, magnetic drum separators, plate magnets and ferrite or high intensity Rare Earth roll separators. For non-ferrous separation, Eriez offers the customer a wide choice of Eddy Current Separator models to cater for the majority of recycling applications: electrical and electronic scrap, aluminium can and other non-ferrous recovery, separation of aluminium from granulated plastic or from glass cullet, foundry sand, incineration ash, municipal solid waste and tyre recycling.
Metal Detectors and Separators
The Eriez E-Z Tec range of high sensitivity metal detectors and gravity-feed metal separators, comprising a selection of aperture styles and sizes to suit most applications, delivers an answer for the detection of all metals, including stainless steel. Metal detectors are essential for conducting purity checks on recycled materials and to protect expensive recycling equipment against the damaging effects of unwanted metal.
Vibratory Feeders
Eriez also designs and manufactures a comprehensive range of vibratory feeders to handle different types and sizes of bulk or powder materials. For the recycling industry feeders are normally sold as an integral part of a metal separation module comprising one or more ferrous separation magnets and a non-ferrous eddy current separation system to ensure material cascades effectively and efficiently from one part of the module to the next with minimum product loss.
Testing and Analysis Service
Eriez Magnetics Europe’s 3,500 square metre premises houses a test laboratory which has the most technologically advanced magnetic separation equipment in the world. Here vital product development work progresses and feasibility and definitive studies are conducted. Eriez materials testing and analysis service provides valuable information to aid purchasing decisions and long-term commercial planning.
Eriez Magnetics Europe was formed in 1974 as the European headquarters of an international group of companies, now spanning five continents. The European operation achieved ISO 9001 quality accreditation in 1992.
