Electrostatic Separator machine is used for recycling of various minerals, waste metals and non-metal materials with conductivity difference such as selected white tungsten,tinstone, zirconite, andalusite, rutile, etc .
Description:
An electrostatic separator works on the principle of exploiting the difference in the electrical charges of particles to achieve separation. When particles are introduced into the separator, they are given an electric charge using mechanisms like corona discharge or triboelectric charging. These charged particles are then subjected to an electric field, which exerts forces on them based on their charges.
Main Features:
1. The separator has a well-defined electric field region where the charged particles experience forces based on their charge-to-mass ratio. Positively and negatively charged particles will be attracted to regions of opposite polarity in the electric field.
2. The charged particles move within the electric field and experience both electrostatic attraction and repulsion forces. This leads to the deflection of particles with differing charges in different directions, allowing for their separation.
3. Once separated, the particles are collected in different bins or compartments based on their deflection trajectories. This collection can be manual or automated, depending on the setup.
