Abstract: A system for separating non-magnetizable metals from a mixture of solid with a feed device; an endless conveyor belt with belt drums supported on a frame, of which the head drum at the discharge end is provided with a driven, eccentrically mounted and adjustable magnet rotor; and a separation area downstream of the head drum. To improve the degree of separation achieved, the system is provided with a vibrating channel (2) with an additional slope; means for adjusting the speed of the conveyor belt (3); means for generating a variable force of repulsion (Fvar); a controlled rotational speed adjustment unit (nvar) for the magnet rotor (3.4); and adjustable separating elements (4.1, 4.2, 4.3), each of which is located between two adjacent throwing parabolas of the separated fractions.
