<span class=\"text-brand1\">Highlights<\/span><\/h2>\n<p data-start=\"104\" data-end=\"462\">Automated conveyor separators provide a simple and effective way to separate moulded components from sprues, runners and waste material immediately after the injection moulding process. By eliminating manual sorting, they help improve production efficiency, reduce labour requirements and ensure consistent part handling throughout the manufacturing process.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"464\" data-end=\"972\">Available in a range of configurations including paddle, drum, spiral and roller separators, each system can be matched to the size, shape and characteristics of your moulded parts. Whether handling large components, small technical mouldings or multi-component applications, MB Conveyor Separators deliver accurate, reliable separation while supporting higher levels of automation. Parts trials are available to identify the most suitable solution for your application.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li data-section-id=\"1pwyk31\" data-start=\"992\" data-end=\"1055\">Automatically separates moulded

involving large moulded components and relatively small sprues or runners. As material travels along the conveyor, adjustable paddles gently guide the moulded parts in one direction while allowing sprues and waste material to fall separately. This simple yet effective design provides reliable separation without damaging delicate parts, making it particularly suitable for automotive, technical moulding and larger packaging applications.<\/p>\n                                                            <\/div>\n                                                                                                            \n                                                                                                    <\/div>\n                                            <\/div>\n                                                                                    <div class=\"accordion-item bg-[#F7F7F7] rounded-[8px] overflow-hidden\">\n                                                <button class=\"accordion-btn w-full text-left uppercase px-6 py-3 transition-all duration-300 hover:bg-brand1\/50 hover:text-white flex justify-between items-center \"\n                                                    data-tab-index=\"1\"\n                                                    type=\"button\"\n                                                    aria-expanded=\"false\">\n                                                    <span>Drum Separator<\/span>\n                                                    <i class=\"fa-kit fa-summit-faq-toggle !text-sm transition-transform duration-300 \"><\/i>\n                                                <\/button>\n                                                <div class=\"tab-pane accordion-content border-t border-gray-200 p-6 hidden\"\n                                                    data-tab-index=\"1\"\n                                                    role=\"region\">\n                                                                                                            <!-- Single content layout -->\n                                                                                                                    <div class=\"content-area text-primary [&#038;_h4]:text-brand1\">\n                                                                <p>Drum separators are designed for the efficient separation of small moulded parts from sprues and runners.
