How does a drum separator work?
Table of Contents
How Drum Separators Work. As the material is introduced to the drum surface, the magnetic field attracts ferrous material to the rotating outer drum. This action continually conveys the captured ferrous material out of the product flow to the ferrous discharge area creating a self-cleaning action.
What is wet drum separator?
for reclaiming magnetic particles IFE wet drum separators are used to regenerate magnetizable media, to extract particles out of suspensions and to concentrate iron ore. The drum separator maximizes the gain on magnetic media or highest separation of magnetizable particles as a concentrate respectively.
What are magnetic separators used for?
A magnetic separator is a device that uses a magnet to remove impurities and other magnetic materials from metal. Magnetic separators can be used before, during and after the production of a material and can be adjusted to attract different types of magnetic materials at different intensity levels.
What is magnetic drum 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.
What is dry magnetic separator?
Dry Drum Magnetic Separators from Multotec are used in the dry separation of ferromagnetic ores. These separators facilitate a more efficient milling and processing operation through an initial upgrade of the desired feed material, delivering a more productive plant for a lower cost per processed ton.
What is wet drum?
Wet Drum Magnetic Separator Components. The wet drum magnetic separator consists of a rotating magnetic drum situated in a tank that receives the feed slurry. The magnetic drum has a stationary, shaft mounted permanent magnetic circuit completely enclosed by a rotating drum. The magnetic drum is mounted in a tank.
What are the advantages of magnetic separator?
Separating magnetizable particles. A significant advantage of magnetic separation is that no filter cloth or other consumables are necessary, and if the particles are separated with minimal amounts of fluid, the waste that needs to be disposed of is practically limited to the pollution only.
Why would you want to separate mixtures?
We need to separate different components of a mixture to separate the useful components from the non-useful or some harmful components.
