Plastics Recycling
Magnetic Separation, Metal Detection and Conveyors
Remove Metal. Protect Equipment. Improve Your Plastics Recycling Efficiency.
In plastics recycling, metal contamination threatens uptime, equipment safety, and material quality. Even small pieces of metal can damage machinery, create scrap, and disrupt production. Bunting designs magnetic separation, metal detection, and conveyor systems built specifically to address these challenges in plastics recycling operations.
Our equipment removes both ferrous and non-ferrous metal at critical points in the process. By catching contamination early, Bunting systems help reduce unplanned downtime and protect shredders, granulators, and extruders from costly damage.
Using high-strength magnetic separators and sensitive metal detectors, Bunting systems capture metal that would otherwise pass through the line. The result is cleaner plastic, more consistent output, and better material value.
Each solution is designed to fit into existing processing lines with minimal disruption, helping recyclers improve safety, maintain product quality, and keep operations running day after day.
