Magnetic Separation, Metal Detection & Conveyors for Plastics Processing
Remove Contaminants. Protect Equipment. Keep Production Moving.
From pellet to part, Bunting delivers integrated systems to detect, separate, and eliminate metal contamination in plastics processing environments. Whether you're working with virgin resins or engineered compounds, our solutions protect your line from metal that can damage tooling, cause product defects, or bring production to a halt.
Our systems are used in injection molding, extrusion, blow molding, and recycling operations to:
- Remove ferrous and non-ferrous metal contamination
- Protect critical equipment like extruders, granulators, shredders, and molding machines.
- Ensure consistent product quality and compliance
- Minimize downtime, maintenance, and scrap
- Streamline material flow between every stage of production
Safeguarding Equipment and Enhancing Product Purity
Metal contamination in plastic processing can lead to costly equipment damage, production downtime, and compromised product quality. Bunting's magnetic separators and metal detectors are engineered to identify and remove ferrous, non-ferrous, and stainless steel contaminants, ensuring the longevity of your equipment and the integrity of your products.
Total Metal Separation Solutions
We offer a total solution approach to removing problematic and damaging metal contamination from a diverse range of plastic material such as plastic flake, shredded plastic waste, plastic bottles and many more.

Captures ferrous contaminants in pneumatic and gravity-fed systems without slowing flow.
Replaces standard head pulleys to continuously remove tramp ferrous metals from conveyors.
Remove ferrous contaminants from dry, free-flowing materials using stationary magnetic elements that fit easily into chutes, hoppers, and gravity flow systems.
Used where products fall freely by gravity through a detection coil, these detectors are ideal for inspecting granules, powders, and pellets in plastics and food processing applications.
Remove metal contaminants from powders, granules, and pellets in vacuum or pressure pneumatic lines. Ideal for plastics, chemical, and food processing.
One-piece and two-piece tunnel, and under-belt configurations to detect ferrous, non-ferrous, and stainless steel contaminants in food, plastics & recycling.
Streamline plastic processing operations by efficiently transporting materials between production stages.
