Prevent downstream damage

Whenever plastics are being recycled there is a risk that the input stream may contain metallic contaminants with the potential to damage downstream equipment. The Plasticon metal detection system from S+S Inspection has been designed specifically to detect and remove metal fragments before cutting mills, chippers and shredders can be damaged.

Whenever plastics are being recycled
there is a risk that the input stream
may contain metallic contaminants
with the potential to damage
downstream equipment. The
Plasticon metal detection
system from S+S
Inspection has been
designed specifically to
detect and remove
metal fragments before
cutting mills, chippers
and shredders can be
damaged.

Although designed for the plastics
industry, the Plastican is equally
suitable for demanding applications in
other industries where a combination
of robust construction and sensitive
metal detection is needed.

The conveyor system is built on a
heavy-duty, welded steel frame to
withstand the real
world conditions in
recycling facilities and
may be fitted with a
choice of tunnel or
plate metal detector
heads to precisely
match the material size
and scanning sensitivity demanded by
the application.
