Product catalog summary
Introduction
The ProSort TM from Eriez is an innovative airless metal recovery system designed to improve metal separation efficiency while significantly reducing operational costs compared to traditional air-powered metal sorters. It is particularly suitable for the scrap metals market.

System Features
  • No air compressor plant required, leading to lower operating and maintenance costs.
  • Reduces dust generation and offers several metal recovery modes, including stainless steel.
  • Utilizes motorized paddles for a powerful "kicking" action and has a modular design up to 128 inches wide.
  • Electromagnetic operation capable of exceeding 60 million cycles, ensuring excellent performance even in cold weather.

Modular Design and Components
The ProSort system is designed for ease of use and maintenance, featuring modular construction for easy access to replaceable sensors and paddle drive units, known as "six packs." Each unit operates independently, facilitating simple troubleshooting and diagnostics. The system can be expanded up to 128 inches.

Cost Efficiency
By eliminating the need for expensive air compressor plants, the ProSort system operates with less than 25% of the electricity required by air-powered sorters. This results in significant cost savings in both operation and purchase.

Dual Mode Segregation
The ProSort system's unique modular design allows for dual mode operation, segregating waste material, ferrous metals, non-ferrous metals, and stainless steel in a single cycle. The system can adjust zones for optimal recovery and sorting efficiency.

Conclusion
The ProSort airless metal recovery system by Eriez offers a cost-effective, efficient, and environmentally friendly solution for metal sorting, with a focus on modularity and ease of maintenance.
