Abstract
A ferrous metal object separator is removably attachable to a conveyor which transports a moving stream of non-ferrous material (e.g. wood chips) in which some ferrous metal objects (e.g. screws, nuts, broken machinery parts, spikes, nails, steel filings, steel chips, etc.) may be commingled. The separator, which has a non-ferrous body, has an inclined surface extending upwardly from a leading edge to an abrupt trailing edge. A separating magnet embedded adjacent the separator's trailing edge magnetically retains the ferrous metal objects without substantially impeding transport of the non-ferrous material along the conveyor. A fastening magnet embedded in the separator removably magnetically fastens the separator on the conveyor.
