PROTECTOR Metal Separator | Eclipse Magnetics

PROTECTOR Metal Separator

Ideally suited for positioning directly on the injection moulding machine’s feed line

  • Able to detect and remove metal foreign bodies as small as 0.3mm
  • Can detect and separate magnetic and non-magnetic metal contamination
  • Perfect for the processing of plastics
  • Works with bulk materials up to the temperature of 140°c
  • Contaminated material is ejected via the “Quick Flap” separation unit and collected into a container.

Overview - PROTECTOR Metal Separator

Metal separation system for plastic melting process

The system detects all types of metal contamination—magnetic or non‑magnetic, including steel, stainless steel, and aluminium, even when concealed within the product. The “Quick‑Flap” unit then ejects the contaminated material instantly and efficiently. 

Applications 

Quality inspection of incoming plastic pellets  

Ideal for those who use injection moulding machines, extruders and blow moulding machines. 

The separator is deployed at the optimal point before contaminations enter the screw of the injection moulding machine. 

Features/benefits 

Highest tactile sensitivity to all types of metals 

Vertical mechanical load up to 500kg 

Pneumatic separation unit 

Improved wear protection of abrasive materials 

Push button for manual rejection in separate housing 

Breaks even within a short space of time.
