NOTE: Multi-Screw Separators are available to handle difficult separation and higher volumes. Consult factory.
E-Series
The E-series is an extruded aluminum design with a variable speed drive internal power roller with safety stall low torque. The E-series also has a 24 VDC output power and 110VAC input power. The units come in 24" and 36" standard lengths. Other lengths and configurations are available. Consult the factory. Extruded aluminum, adjustable height legs and 4" diameter casters are included. Gap adjustment is simple and repeatable with a scale on the unit. Also available are in-feed, discharge chutes for bottom and end. System can be freestanding or attached under the press or at the end of an incline conveyor. Custom takeoffs are available to divert parts to storage containers or inspection tables via gravity or an Airveyor.
NOTE: Best performance when placed in-line with feeding conveyor, but can also be placed at right angles
B-Series
The B-series is an older design, constructed from steel and has an internal AC powered roller as a standard drive for the screw. This particular design is the 1st generation. The slide plate has a pivoting adjustment and lock down handle. The screw is also adjustable in its vertical height, through the adjustment of two knobs. The unit frame is adjustable in its height form minimum to maximum adjustments. The screw lengths available are 24", 30" and 36"
Applications:
Designed for small parts and sub-runners with low volumes, typically where the runners or parts are larger in vertical height than the corresponding parts and or runners. Consider selecting the 24” long model when using a 12” wide or narrower conveyor. If using a 18” wide or narrower, please consider the use of the 36” long unit, or use the 36” long unit when having a medium number of cavities and sub-runners. Special Note: a special two tier STS-E series can be devised to increase resonance time for high numbers of cavities and faster cycles.
Features and Specifications:
- Modular extruded aluminum frame construction
- Adjustable stainless steel guard over the top of the rotating helical screw, provides gap adjustment for part size and extends the life of the polyurethane fingers.
- Clear LEXAN guard on the back-side of the unit, which allows viewing of separation process.
- Stainless steel adjustable angle slide plate, easy access, industrial strength, single point adjustment with side locking mechanism. Adjustment allows for various sized parts and runners.
- Machined UHMW Polyethylene helical screw, 24” & 36” long, extends beyond the slide plate, thereby allowing parts or runners proper clearance to exit the unit.
- Flight is 2-3/16" long x 3/16" tall - may be modified for applications.
- UHMW screw has a variable speed rotation through a speed control dial.
- Removable and polyurethane fingers are included to create tumbling action. The “ fingers “ are located with a setscrew and can be trimmed per application.
- operator safety through low stall torque.
- Telescoping legs with standard 19” min. to 32” max. adjustable height range
- Discharge height of bottom of slide tray to floor is 5.25" min. to 16.5" max., less options
- (4) four - 4" diameter swivel, polyurethane, non-marking wheels with toe locking casters, provides portability.
- Supply power requirements: 110 VAC/60/1 input power
