Magnetic separation

During sorting, a solid compound is separated according to its material characteristics.

• drum-type magnetic separator for separation of magnetisable components from a solid compound
• separation by a fixed permanent magnet in an area of a rotating, non-magnetic drum
• feed hopper with vibrating trough for feed of solid compound to drum
• dosage of feed material by way of distance of hopper outlet from vibrating trough, throw and frequency of vibrating trough
• drum rotation speed adjustable by electric motor with potentiometer
• 2 steel tanks for separated fractions and 1 tank for solid compound
• feed material: sand and hexagon nuts
