The investment at Eriez-Europe will include a high-speed balancing machine and a filament winding machine to facilitate the manufacturing of Eriez’s range of Eddy Current Separators, designed to recover nonferrous metals from a wide variety of waste streams.
The expansion of the UK facility adds a third rotor manufacturing site to Eriez’s global network, complementing manufacturing sites in North America and Asia.
The new facility will increase annual production capacity of Eddy Current Separator rotors by a third.
“Following continued success of supplying the Eriez Eddy Current Separators into a diverse range of industries, we are excited to be able to significantly expand our capabilities at Eriez-Europe and to facilitate further growth, strengthening our market position both locally in the UK and worldwide,” said John Curwen, managing director at Eriez-Europe.
