Available Options:

  • Heat Shrinkable Tubing installed on Separation Rollers to provide improved traction
  • Urethane Coated Rollers to minimize bounce
  • Reversing DC Drive
  • Bull Gear Drive, to create the same direction of travel for bottles and scrap

How does it work?

  • Parts, tails, and moils fall onto the upper, roller conveyor.
  • As they are moved along by the rollers, the tails and moils fall through the cracks between the rollers onto a lower level, belt conveyor.
  • The lower conveyor moves them in the opposite direction, out of the system.

EMI Part/Runner Separators mechanically separate sub-gated parts (not attached to a runner) and are not intended to be used to break parts away from a runner.

Each separator is intended to be used in conjunction with or attached to an EMI belt conveyor. A typical application places the belt conveyor under the press and mold to catch the shot, then move the parts and runners out of the press and separate them into two different containers or onto additional conveyors.
