Varisort - Inductive metal detection at its best

Experience a new dimension in high quality metal recovery with Varisort. Developed by leading recycling specialists SICON and S+S it uses the induction principle to separate metals from non-metallic materials. Even stainlesssteel and insulated cables can be recovered efficiently with Varisort. Whether metal refining, shredder residue or electronic scrap: every Varisort system is custom-tailored to your specific requirements.

Your advantages with Varisort

  • High quality sorting for metal refining, shredder residue/ASR and electronic scrap
  • Individual system configuration according to your specific requests
  • Future-proof: modular design allows easy upgrading
  • Minimal product loss due to specially designed pneumatic control valves
  • Total security through data management with Visutec online monitoring system

The induction principle

A high-speed conveyor transports the material while a multi-channel metal detection coil determines the precise position of metals. All information concerning material (e.g. metal, off-color in case of using a camera system) and position is transmitted to the air nozzle bar. A precise blast of compressed air removes unwanted material quickly with minimum loss of valuable material.

Technical highlights

  • Maximized throughput with belt speeds up to 3 m/sec (10'/sec) or 180 m/min (196 yd/min)
  • Highest eject accuracy with up to 160 valves per meter (50 valves per foot)
  • Working widths available from 500 mm (20’’) up to 3,000 mm (10’)
  • Pneumatic control valves for particle sizes as little as 6.4 mm (1/4’’) are possible
  • Turnkey integration including conveying system

It is your choice

The modular Varisort system allows perfect adjustment to your needs. Simply choose between Varisort M which separates all metal types down to a diameter of 0.6 mm (1/42") and Varisort S for pure stainless steel. Every model is available in six different working widths – from 500 mm (20’’) up to 3,000 mm (10'). In addition you can select between a basic and an extended version which offers unique features (i.e. inspection door/window, longer acceleration belt). On demand models with optical separation between non-ferrous metal types or with chemical composition for sorting alloys are realised.
