Pneumatic cncentrator

Overview

The wind sorter, also known as the drum density sorter, consists of a centrifugal fan, a separation unit that rotates the drum, a belt conveyor, and a settling chamber. It utilizes the principle of different weight and wind resistance of materials, and uses the same size of wind to carry animal materials, achieving the goal of easy and automatic classification of materials. It is commonly used in production lines for the disposal of household waste, stale waste, and industrial waste.

Operating principle

According to the principles of aerodynamics, the air separator uses a controllable airflow as the sorting medium to sort materials according to density and particle size under the action of airflow. The airflow can carry lighter materials (such as paper sheets, plastic bags, films, etc.) upwards or horizontally to farther places, while heavy materials fall due to the inability of the rising airflow to support them, or are thrown to a closer distance in the horizontal direction due to inertia. Therefore, the wind sorting process is based on the sedimentation law of substances in the air, in order to achieve the classification purpose.
