Magnetic Drums Separator
Product Description
Magnetic Drum Separators are of self-cleaning type and provide continuous removal of ferrous contamination from a wide range of free-flowing bulk and granular materials in high-volume applications.
Drums can be ordered with or without housing.
MPCO Magnetic Drum Separator system is a complete machine with Stainless Steel 304 / 316
Housing & Drive system. Only the drum separator unit can also be supplied.
The Drum Separators are available in two types:
High Intensity – (Ndfeb Magnet – 4500 gauss), for Operating Temperature of 80˚C(Max.)
Low Intensity – (Ferrite Magnet – 1200 gauss), for Operating Temperature of 250˚C(Max.)
Ferrous fine particles, nuts, bolts, pins, nails and other tramp metal from free-flowing granular material can be arrested effectively.
How to use Magnetic Drums?
Drawing of magnetic drum separator Working process drawing of Drum separator
When material flows onto the drum, a stationary magnetic assembly inside the unit’s shell captures tramp metal and holds it securely to the drum’s stainless steel surface. With contaminants removed, the good product falls freely to a discharge point. As the drum rotates, cleats sweep the ferrous debris through and out of the magnetic field. The tramp metal is discharged separately, creating continuous self-cleaning separation.

Magnetic Drums Separator
