Feed system for an electromagnetic eddy current materials separator

摘要

A feed system is disclosed herein for use with an electromagnetic eddy current materials separator for supplying material to be acted upon by the eddy current magnet directly into the regions strongest influence of the magnetic field of said magnet. Automatic blockage release means are provided to terminate jam-ups in the event that a blockage should occur in the delivery of feedstock to the region of influence of the magnetic field of the magnet.
