New Video Features Eriez® Shred1(TM)Ballistic Separator
Erie, PA - A new video produced by Eriez® highlights the company’s popular Shred1™ Ballistic Separator. The video, which runs approximately two minutes, is hosted on the Eriez YouTube channel: www.youtube.com/eriez.
This video provides viewers an up-close look at the powerful Shred1 Ballistic Separator as it utilizes ballistics to separate materials into two distinct fractions: a premium low-copper ferrous product (in the range of -0.2% cu) and a traditional #2 shred. The first fraction is a high value, low-copper content ferrous product. This second fraction represents less than 25 percent of the flow and contains mostly mixed metals, copper and aluminum with steel housings or cores.
“Shred1 Separator sales have spiked recently and interest in this equipment continues to intensify as scrap processors seek new and innovative ways to obtain a premium ferrous shred which yields a higher value per ton,” says Chris Ramsdell, Recycling Product Manager. “We produced this video to capture the incredible power of the Shred1 as it quickly and efficiently separates difficult post-consumer waste items--such as automobiles and appliances--which often present a big problem for yards using less advanced technologies.”
To further enhance recovery, Eriez recommends pairing a Shred1 Ballistic Separator with a PokerSort™ to extract long, troublesome pokers and a P-Rex® Permanent Rare Earth Magnetic Drum. The combination of these cutting-edge pieces of equipment is referred to as Eriez’ CleanStream™ Process. Not only does the CleanStream Process recover more ferrous and concentrate 75 percent of the post-drum magnet flow into a low-copper premium shred, it also eliminates the need for a scavenger magnet, a z-box air system and hand picking the entire flow.
