HMS Processing
SICON America
Purposely improving the quality of steel scrap is for SICON the driving force behind the heavy metal scrap (HMS) preparation process. HMS scrap is cleaned intensively and any NF metals that are still present are separated. The result is a scrap quality with a considerably higher FE content and reduced NF parts (specifically copper and aluminum).
Features & Benefits
Throughputs ranging from 20 to 200 t/h possible (even over multiple shifts due to the system’s high availability and ease of maintenance)
Removals of fines with the aid of an integrated cascade-type screen having a specific screen geometry
Separation of FE scrap using overbelt magnets and drum magnets (depending on throughput)
Optional separation of non-ferrous metals with the aid of eddy current and induction separators
Optional removal of FE scrap using mobile belt conveyors
