Z-Box - Air Separation System

Zato is offering its Z-Box air separation, to remove the light fraction (fluff, dust, paint, etc…) from the shredded product. The Z-Box is a complementary system to the shredding line, usually included in the hammermills, that, depending from the processed material, can be installed upstream or downstream of the magnetic separator. The crushed material falls then in a duct made of anti-wear, “Z” shaped duct, while descending hits the inner steps and expands inside the duct. During this process, counterflowing air allows the aspiration of light materials during the fall. The air separation is capable to return excellent results and allows to obtain a high quality final product.
