Eriez releases white paper on ballistic separators
- March 22, 2018
- News Release
- Metals/Materials
Erie, Pa.-based Eriez® has released a white paper about producing low-copper steel with ballistic separators. “The Case for Producing Low-Copper Steel with Ballistic Separators,” written by Eriez Metals Recycling Market Manager Mike Shattuck and Eriez Recycling Product Manager Chris Ramsdell, emphasizes the demand from today’s steel mills for low-copper steel. It examines the challenges processors face when producing low-copper steel to meet a typical mill's exacting specifications.
The white paper provides an overview of three recovery systems used to produce low-copper steel: gamma scrap analyzers, scrap drums with variable rectifier, and X-tract X-ray fluorescence (XRF) separators. It covers the capabilities, advantages, drawbacks, and average melt results for each piece of equipment.
The final section of the white paper focuses on the company’s Eriez Shred1™ ballistic separator. It describes how this equipment uses ballistics to separate iron-rich ferrous from mixed metals in the post-drum magnet flow. It also includes a chart depicting a typical ferrous system layout.
