We've already covered the separation of ferrous material from a waste stream on a conveyor belt using a suspended electro magnet or a suspended permanent magnet. The next magnetic sorting machine of the recycling industry I'd like to cover is a nonferrous separating machine.

Let's say we have an aluminium can recovery factory. Now imagine a conveyor belt filled with plastic bottles and cans. Using an eddy current separator, it is possible to attract or reject metallic nonferrous objects like aluminium.
