Magnetic Drum Separators

Magnetic Drum separators utilize a stationary magnetic core within a rotating outer shell.

Magnetic Drum Separator Applications

Magnetic Drum Separators are used to separate metal particles from slurries, granules or powders. These industrial magnets work on a high-volume basis for applications where there is a great deal of continuous turnover of product. These continuous self-cleaning drum magnets are ideal for applications where there is a high level of ferrous and para-magnetic contamination.

As material is introduced to the drum surface, a 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.

Common uses for magnetic drum separators include magnetite recovery in heavy media mining circuits, tramp metal extraction, and product purification.

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.

Quality at the Core

Quality control plays a critical role in all aspects and is a system set in place to help maintain standards in IMT’s manufacturing process.

Custom design, fabrication and assembly involves multiple processes; it is critical to have well-documented quality control procedures. IMT operates an in-house quality assurance program following materials and components from receipt of delivery through fabrication to final product ensuring the highest quality standards are met.
