Separating differing types of material within a waste stream can be a challenging task which often requires cutting edge machinery.

Windsifters from Wisteria can provide a solution. These rugged, energy-efficient machines separate heavy and light materials using a three-part process:

1. Acceleration Belt – input material enters the machine on a conveyor belt where it is spread out into a single layer. When inside the machine the conveyor belt accelerates the material to the discharge edge.

2. Air Jet – An air jet with an adjustable nozzle, located below and slightly behind the discharge belt produces an air stream that takes light materials upwards and forwards from the discharge edge to a rotational drum. The rotating drum carries the light material over the top and in to a holding chamber or are extracted via conveyor

3. Heavies Discharge Conveyor – Any heavy materials, too dense for the air stream to carry to the rotating separation drum simply fall straight down from the discharge edge and are extracted from the windsifter via a discharge conveyor

The Westeria Air Density Seperation range have applications in:

• Construction rubble
• Unsorted construction waste
• Residual waste
• Glass
• Wood
• Compost
• Commercial Waste
• Scrap Metal
• Waste Incineration Slag
• Production of refuse-derived fuel

Airstar

Westeria’s air density separator contains proven technology with patented Westeria solutions. It is highly efficient due to the optimised flow design which can be adapted by the user. The Airstar can be used in circulating air operation which produces very little exhaust fumes. Available as a semi-mobile unit, wheel-mobile, caterpillar mobile or stationary unit.

AirBasic

A simple, sturdy setting for the air separator feeder belt via cable winches means no fixed jacks. The AirBasic is equipped with an integrated air hose for cleaning and a separator drum with optional Hardox design. Pipe supports allow the AirBasic to be mechanically adjusted for height.

Airtrack 1

This design is the only mobile separation unit with a 2000mm conveyor width. The construction optimises weight distribution and benefits from easy loading, and low bed trailers. It requires minimal cleaning due to the hinged filter grills. The Airtrack 1 boasts impressive processing capabilities of up to 220m3/h.

Airtrack 2

With optimal dimensions the Airtrack 2 can be used for nearly all sites and applications. Its high-performance electromagnet, providing a clean and efficient iron separation, is also guaranteed.
Operator and environmental safety is adhered to by the low-level dust emissions thanks to the sophisticated air-circulation system.
