Abstract
Devices, method, and systems are described for separating metallic objects, such as bullets, from non-metallic objects, such as rubber pieces. In one embodiment, a separator includes a first conveyor, a blower, and a collector. A mixture of metallic and rubber objects are loaded onto the first conveyor and dropped in front of the blower. The blower directs forced air at the rubber and metal mixture, wherein due to the differing physical properties of the two materials, the rubber objects may be laterally displaced, while the metal objects drop into the collector. Metal objects collected in the collector can be transported to a container via a second conveyor.
