Material is fed from the hopper at a controlled rate onto the rotating drum shell (The feed may be presented to the top of the drum or as a ‘falling curtain’ adjacent to the drum periphery).
Magnetic particles are then deflected and held against the drum shell surface; the non-magnetic particles follow their normal trajectory.
Splitters divert the particles into the outlets and chosen chute arrangement.
The MAGQUIP Axial Pole Drum separator will achieve the following:
- Extraction & Recovery of ferrous metals, tramp metal fed via hopper chute or vibrating feeder
- Separate or concentrate ferromagnetic minerals
The advantages of the MAGQUIP Axial Pole Drum Separator includes:
- MAGQUIP axial alternating pole (APD) transverse element with ferrite magnets
- Accurately manufactured thin wall drum shell with minimal drum magnet gap, precision manufactured to close tolerance on diameter
- Option of high-strength fibre reinforced composite plastic; coated with two layers abrasion resistant ‘Epoxy Gelcoat’, Two colours used for wear induction
- Sophisticated control panel enclosure featuring PLC features for advanced component control and feedback with HMI
- Direct drive to drum by shaft mount type geared motor. Reduced motor power with non-metallic shell option means ‘eddy current drag’ effect.
