What are Multi Metal Separating Systems – “MMS”?
Multi Metal Separating Systems are small, extremely flexible scrap milling separating plants which are able to process a wide range of input material, whereby the necessary change-overs can quickly performed. Generally small, universal special scrap mills with power consumptions between 500 and max 1,250 hp are used. These mills can be speedily and easily modified in their hammer configuration, the grates and wear plates changed for the processing of various material. Their flexibility ensures a short-term change-over between the different input materials. Liberation, cleaning, separating and classifying of the materials is aided in a very efficient and economical way by the well-designed peripheral plants downstream of the special scrap mill. Flow diagram, fig. no. 1, shows a MMS system which is capable of processing following input materials in a weekly turn-around: • car bodies, either whole or sheared • mixed scrap/light scrap • aluminium scrap • cutoffs and punching to be made int
