High-Purity and Economical Recycling
Sesotec MAG FLAKE is a high-performance sensor-based metal separation system developed for high-sensitivity detection and automatic removal of metallic foreign bodies from flakes and regrind in plastic-recycling processes.
The system provides reliable separation even in material streams with high metal contamination, helping improve recycled-plastic purity while minimising loss of valuable product.
With its high-resolution metal-detection sensor, MAG FLAKE precisely detects very small metal particles in plastic material.
- Detection and separation of small metal contaminants from 1 mm
- Detection of magnetic and non-magnetic metallic foreign bodies
- Suitable for plastic streams containing high levels of metal
- Precise, position-specific metal separation
The special geometry of the metal sensor and material chute works together to detect different types of metal contamination at the correct point and remove them from the product stream with high precision.
The high-resolution sensor bar determines the position of the metal particle, allowing only the reject valve in the relevant zone to be activated. This reduces loss of clean material.
Detected metal contaminants are removed from the product stream by high-speed reject valves. An 8 mm valve pitch enables targeted separation of foreign bodies.

MAG FLAKE is designed to minimise cleaning and maintenance requirements during metal detection and separation. This increases system availability and helps reduce production downtime.
- Reliable separation of small metallic foreign bodies from 1 mm
- Effective operation in material streams with high metal contamination
- Separation of magnetic and non-magnetic metals
- High-resolution metal-sensor technology
- Optimised chute geometry
- Low loss of valuable product
- Production capacity up to 5 t/h
- Low maintenance and cleaning requirements
- Reduced production downtime
- Easy integration into existing plastic-recycling lines
- PET flake recycling
- Plastic-flake separation
- Plastic regrind processing
- PE and PP recycling lines
- Plastic material streams with high metal contamination
- Final quality control of recycled plastics
- Production of high-purity plastic raw material
MAG FLAKE reduces material loss in the recycling process by removing metal contaminants together with as little clean product as possible. Its high separation accuracy, low maintenance requirements and high capacity help improve both product quality and process economics in plastic-recycling plants.
