Shred1 Ballistic Separator

Main Content

Eriez Shred1™ Ballistic Metal Separator

Shred1 from Eriez uses ballistics to efficiently separate iron-rich ferrous from much of the mixed metals post-drum magnet flow. This separator delivers two distinct fractions: a premium low-copper ferrous product (in the range of 0.16-0.20% cu) and a traditional #2 shred.

The Shred1 ballistic separator combined with a PokerSort to extract long, troublesome pokers, and a P-Rex™ permanent rare earth magnetic drum improves the entire process. Not only does this new CleanStream™ process recover more ferrous and concentrate 75% of the post-drum magnet flow into a low-copper premium shred, but it also reduces the hand picking and helps increase recovery of copper bearing materials.

  • Produces a premium #1 low-copper shred
  • #1 shred contains less than 0.2% copper
  • Reduces picking labor
  • No X-Ray scanning needed
  • Removes concealed copper
