1. An amplified ballistic separator for separating material, the separator comprising:
- a separator bed adapted to contact the material, the bed comprising;
an agitator;
an amplified agitator having an amplified agitator total lateral displacement;
a crankshaft having a crankshaft total lateral displacement, the crankshaft kinematically linked to the agitator and the amplified agitator, wherein the amplified agitator is linked to the crankshaft by a cam follower;
wherein the amplified agitator total lateral displacement is larger than the crankshaft total lateral displacement.

Abstract
A novel ballistic separator for separating material is disclosed. The separator includes a separator bed adapted to contact the material, with the bed further comprising an agitator and an amplified agitator. The amplified agitator has a total lateral displacement. The separator also includes a crankshaft kinematically linked to the agitator and the amplified agitator. The crankshaft has a total lateral displacement. The amplified agitator total lateral displacement is larger than the crankshaft total lateral displacement.
