渦電流分離機は、リサイクル業界の顧客に頻繁に推奨している非鉄金属分離機の一つです。別名として、渦電流分離機、銅・アルミ分離器、または非鉄金属アルミニウム渦電流分離器とも呼ばれます。この装置は主に、銅、アルミニウム、その他の非磁性金属を混合材料から自動的に分離し、労働コスト削減と安定した長期運用を目指すリサイクル工場に適しています。
顧客とのコミュニケーションの中で、ほとんどの関心は次の3つのポイントに集中していることがわかります：処理可能な材料、分離のクリーンさ、機械の連続運転の信頼性。以下に、これらの実用的な観点から渦電流選別機を紹介します。
渦電流分離機の動作原理の説明方法
渦電流分離機は、純粋な物理的分離原理に基づいて動作し、材料の物理的性質の違いを利用して磁場内で分離します。運転中に化学薬品は必要なく、排ガスや排水も発生しません。これは、環境規制に準拠する必要のある顧客にとって特に重要です。
混合材料が高速回転する磁気ローラーを通過すると、銅やアルミニウムなどの非磁性金属は、交流磁場の下で渦電流を生成します。その結果、これらの金属は非金属材料とは異なる軌道をたどり、自動的に分離されます。
この機械には、プラスチック排出口、磁性金属排出口、アルミニウムや銅などの非鉄金属用の別個の排出口を含む、4つの排出口が装備されており、複数の材料の分類回収を可能にしています。
磁気ローラーの正逆回転を制御することで、機械はさまざまなサイズの材料に適応できます。粒径2mm以上の材料に対して安定した分離性能を発揮します。

What Materials Are Suitable for an Eddy Current Separator Machine?
In real projects, our eddy current sorting machines are commonly used for sorting the following materials:
- Shredded municipal solid waste
- Industrial waste and scrap
- Electronic waste and circuit boards
- Glass fragments
- Waste plastic doors and windows
- Municipal wood waste
- Boiler bottom ash
- Mixed metal materials
- Shredded scrap automobiles containing copper, aluminum, and other non-ferrous metals
If your material stream contains both non-metals and non-magnetic metals such as copper and aluminum, the eddy current separator is usually recommended as a key downstream sorting machine, working together with crushers and conveying systems.
Why More Customers Are Replacing Manual Sorting
In earlier stages, many recycling plants relied on manual sorting for copper and aluminum separation. However, as processing volumes increase, limitations in efficiency and consistency become more apparent.
Based on customer feedback, eddy current sorters offer several clear advantages over manual sorting:
- Stable and high sorting speed
- High separation accuracy with low metal loss
- Simple operation with reduced labor dependence
- Easy integration into automated production lines
- Wide adaptability to different material sizes
For customers planning long-term operation and cost control, machine-based separation is a more sustainable solution.
Operation and Control Designed for On-Site Use
Intelligent Control System
The eddy current aluminum separation is equipped with an intelligent touch-screen control cabinet and frequency conversion control, providing smoother and more reliable operation. Key transmission components use imported bearings, suitable for long-term continuous use.
One-Button Start for Easy Operation
With one-button automatic control, the machine is easy to start and operate. Precision manufacturing and special processing techniques help reduce noise and vibration during operation, making it suitable for workshop environments.
Magnetic System Protection
The magnetic roller is designed with an effective magnetic system protection structure, preventing magnetic system detachment during high-speed operation and ensuring long-term safety.

Integration into a Complete Metal Crushing and Sorting Line
In many projects, the eddy current separator is not used as a standalone machine but integrated into a complete metal crushing and sorting line, which is also commonly referred to as an aluminum breakage (thermal break aluminum) crushing and sorting line.
Based on different material conditions, the typical process flow is:
metal shredder → metal crusher → eddy current separator → dry grinding mill (polishing and rust removal).
In this line, the metal shredder machine is responsible for primary size reduction of bulky scrap materials, followed by the metal crusher for further crushing and liberation. The eddy current aluminum separation then plays a key role in separating aluminum, copper, and other non-ferrous metals from mixed materials. Finally, the dry grinding machine is used for surface polishing and rust removal, improving the cleanliness and appearance of the recovered metals.
As a supplier, we help customers configure this complete line according to their material type, output requirements, and downstream application needs, ensuring stable operation and effective separation throughout the entire process.
How We Help You Choose the Right Aluminium Eddy Current
As an equipment supplier, our focus is not only on selling machines but on ensuring that the eddy current aluminum separation truly matches your material characteristics and capacity requirements. In practice, an eddy current sorter is usually a key part of a complete recycling line rather than a standalone unit.
Based on your material type, particle size, throughput, and upstream and downstream equipment, we can help you select the appropriate model and provide a stable, long-term separation solution.
