Are you having trouble removing and collecting lithium-ion batteries from container and packaging waste that can cause fires?
There are many electronic devices around us that contain lithium-ion batteries, such as mobile batteries, rechargeable small appliances, and electronic cigarettes. Because they are inexpensive and easy to purchase, items like mobile batteries and electronic cigarettes can sometimes be discarded in the trash as if they were disposable.
However, lithium-ion batteries have the property of igniting when subjected to impact, making them dangerous if not handled correctly. Therefore, the disposal methods for lithium-ion battery products are determined by each municipality, but there have been serious accidents where they were mistakenly thrown away with plastic packaging waste, leading to ignition at collection points or recycling facilities, resulting in factory fires.
◆ Measures to remove lithium-ion batteries are urgently needed!
Electronic devices containing lithium-ion batteries are weakly magnetic, so it is possible to attract and remove them using high-magnetic-force magnets, which were difficult to collect with conventional suspended magnetic separators or drum magnetic separators.
◆ Existing conveyors can be utilized!
By replacing the head pulley of the existing conveyor line with a high-magnetic-force pulley, it can be easily implemented.
*Please note that there are limitations on the dimensions that can be manufactured, so please inquire for details.
