Latest project

This is the latest project here at the factory in Cartagena, a vibrating table with water that seperates plastic from metal . We are using it to seperate ground up connectors from circuit boards to make it easier to reclaim the precious metals. The plastic falls down the front and the metal and a small amount of the larger pieces of plastic come out on the right.  Posted by Picasa
