At the 2022 PCIM Europe exhibition (10-12 May, Nuremberg, Germany), Bunting is promoting the recently acquired MagDev range of soft magnetic products on stand 137 in hall 9.

Advanced separation technology enabling enhanced metal recovery is the focus on Bunting’s stand B6-452 at IFAT 2022 (Messe Munchen, Germany, May 30-June 3). Technology, such as the patented SSSC Stainless Steel Separator, uses ultra-high magnetic fields to recover metals previously lost to waste.

353,000 tonnes of window profiles and related products got recycled in 2020 (source Recovinyl). Although there was a slight fall in the total amount of PVC recycled in 2020 (due to the Covid-19 pandemic), the UK and Ireland recycle the second highest tonnage in Europe behind Germany.

Bunting has acquired Gloucestershire-based powder milling and blending specialist Pilamec. Pilamec further broadens the Bunting product portfolio.

An aluminium dross processing plant in the Middle East has purchased an Eddy Current Separator, Drum Magnet and ElectroStatic Separator to recover the valuable metal. The separation equipment was designed and built by Bunting at their Redditch manufacturing facility in the United Kingdom.

MagDev is a member of the Bunting Group, which is one of the world’s leading designers and manufacturers of magnets, magnet assemblies and magnetising equipment. The Bunting European engineering and manufacturing facilities are in Swindon, Berkhamsted and Redditch, all in the United Kingdom.

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.

With the Ecomondo Green Technology Expo encompassing the circular economy, the Bunting stand (hall A2 stand 007) focuses on material recycling through material and metal separation to neodymium magnet recovery.

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.

The new Shredder Feeder Conveyor from Bunting-Redditch combines with either a magnetic separator or metal detector to protect a shredder or granulator from metal damage.
