    Seperation of copper of plastic

    In connection with the use of the electric wire cable granulator, I encountered the problem with the finished material.

    There is still a small amount of copper in the plastic
    Is there a magnet so kobberen may be discarded?

    It is a very small amount, but it does that I can not sell the plastic
    I hope you to have an idea

    Welcome to the world of granulators. There will always be copper in your plastic that you will not be able to get out with the traditional shaker tables. Typically 2-7% depending on what you are cutting. I have a machine I run my plastic through that takes it out and allows me to sell the copperat #2 chop price and the plastic as well.
