Solution

Ferrous Metal Recovery

Recover ferrous material from recycling, processing and bulk handling streams.

Application problem

Recover ferrous material from recycling, processing and bulk handling streams.

Potential equipment damage

Uncontrolled ferrous material may damage crushers, belts, screens and downstream equipment.

Recommended magnetic solution

Permanent and electromagnetic options should be compared according to burden depth, suspension height and operating duty.

Permanent versus electromagnetic options

Permanent magnets are simple and do not require magnet power. Electromagnetic separators may be selected for adjustable magnetic force, larger gaps or demanding duty after electrical conditions are confirmed.

Installation position

Cross-belt and inline positions depend on conveyor layout, transfer points, discharge path, maintenance access and structural support.

Selection parameters

  • Material type and particle size
  • Conveyor width, speed and layer thickness
  • Cross-belt or inline position
  • Dust, heat, humidity and voltage conditions

Optional configurations

Outdoor protection, dust protection, corrosion-resistant options, control cabinet options and self-cleaning discharge can be reviewed after site data is confirmed.

Maintenance considerations

Maintenance access, belt clearance, cleaning mechanism inspection and spare parts planning should be considered before final selection.
