Inspect Baled Recycled Materials before Shredding with a Metal Detector

Bunting® Magnetics Co. offers Metal Detection Bale Inspection Conveyors for baled recyclable materials as either an independent stand-alone system or as the in-feed conveyor to the Shredder line. Whether it is bales of post-consumer carpet, plastic film, milk jugs, plastic bottles, clothing, or fiber material, Bunting® has a line of Bale Inspection Conveyors to inspect the bales for any metal objects like aluminum cans, scrap metal or hammerheads that could damage your Shredder and/or contaminate your product stream.

Bale Inspection Conveyor Features:

  • Heavy-duty channel frame construction
  • Optional back stop for bale loading
  • Conveyor frames for 36″ to 72″ wide belts
  • Belt speeds usually between 20 to 40 fpm
  • Optional Metal Detectors on separate isolation support

Bales of material are usually placed by forklift on the in-feed portion of the conveyor against optional backstops. They are then run through a Metal Detector that is sized for your bales to detect metal contamination within the bale itself. The triple coil detector checks for all types of metal objects within the bale and then double checks it before conveying the bale out to be downloaded or fed directly onto an inclined Shredder Feeder Conveyor into the Shredder.
