Glass Breaking Screen

Newly installed is the latest design Glass Breaking screen for the breaking and removal of glass from a mixed recyclable container screen. The input material to the process contains Plastic bottles, steel cans, aluminium cans and glass. The material is fed up into the screen using a specially designed chain conveyor to prevent the fines and glass entering the chains and drive mechanism. the Glass Breaking screen then breaks and removes the glass form the mix of material, the remaining material is then fed under an overband magnet to remove the steel / ferrous cans. the remaining plastic bottles and aluminium cans are fed through an eddy current to remove the aluminium / non ferrous material from the plastic bottles.
