Magnetic Separation

Magnetic separation – permanent or electric

Permanent and electromagnetic magnetic separators from Eriez are available in a variety of designs. Whether your product is gravity fed through pipes and chutes, loosely transported on conveyors, and/or pumped through pipelines, Eriez has the magnetic separation solution.

Permanent Magnetic Separators: require no electric power. With proper care, they can last a lifetime with very little loss of field strength. Eriez manufactures permanent magnetic separators using ceramic or rare earth material for increased strength and extended magnet life. Common types of permanent magnets include: tube magnets, plate magnets, grate magnets, trap magnets, magnetic humps, and magnetic pulleys.

Electric or Electro Magnets: provide tramp metal collection from conveyed materials. The suspended electromagnet is a widely used magnetic separator. The electromagnet is typically mounted or suspended over a conveyor belt to remove large pieces of tramp metal that represent a hazard to downstream crushers, mills, pulverizers, and grinders. For larger industrial separation jobs, count on Eriez electromagnetic separators. These units use wire coils and direct currents to provide a magnetic field that separates ferrous material from nonferrous product. The powerful and reliable separators are mainly used in coal, limestone, sand, and other aggregates applications.
