According to the manufacturer, the patented separator uses needles which drill the cardboard but not the paper. With the help of the eccentric effect of the separator drum, the cardboard is directed to a conveyor belt and released on to it.
Material destined for the separation process must be dry and dense in order to obtain best results, according to the manufacturer. Smaller-size material can be sorted by altering the number of sorting needles.
