The separation and recovery of fine and small metal is vital for the successful recycling of e-waste. On stand 314 at the E-Waste World Conference & Expo (30 November – 1 December 2021, Frankfurt Messe, Germany), Bunting is showcasing advanced metal separation technology specifically used in the recycling of electronics.

Bunting has invested in expanding their Test and Development Centre at Berkhamsted in the UK where they specialise in the design, test and build of a wide range of magnet and magnetic technologies.

Successful implementation of an overseas business development strategy has resulted in orders from Italy for a bespoke Industrial Magnetiser, complete with control cabinet, and a Magnet Setter. Bunting’s UK engineering design team will design, build and test the magnetisers, control and magnet setter.

Bunting’s range of Samarium Cobalt (SmCo) Rare Earth Magnets now includes the XGS33 grade, which provides higher stability and magnetic performance at raised temperatures. Such performance characteristics are critical in applications for the automotive, aerospace and electronics sectors.

The new Everlube anti-corrosion magnet coating combats the increasingly arduous working environments for magnets and magnetic components. The Everlube coating prevents oxidation and deterioration of high-powered permanent neodymium rare earth magnets.
