Permanent Magnetic Drum Separator
The Permanent Magnetic Drum Separator is a high-performance wet-type magnetic separation system designed for the efficient extraction of magnetic minerals from slurry or ore feed. With a wide magnetic arc, wear-resistant components, and improved ore grade output, this unit is engineered to optimize mineral recovery while minimizing tailing losses.
Ideal for ferrous and weakly magnetic materials, this machine brings enhanced performance to mineral processing, tailings treatment, and concentrate purification in a range of industrial sectors.
How It Works
Material enters through the feed box, which features an internal distribution device to ensure uniform feed along the drum length. As the ore slurry flows into the trough, the permanent magnetic drum attracts magnetic particles, drawing them out of the mix while non-magnetic materials are carried away as tailings.
The liquid level inside the tank is maintained at a consistent height, promoting stable flow and efficient magnetic particle recovery. The captured material is then directed to the concentrate outlet.
Technical Highlights
-
✅ Uniform Ore Distribution: Feed box includes an internal equalizing device for consistent material loading along the full length of the drum.
-
✅ Wear-Resistant Design: Both the tank interior and drum exterior are lined with abrasion-resistant materials to extend service life.
-
✅ Large Particle Capability: Capable of processing ore particles up to 16mm in diameter—ideal for coarse or mid-range sorting tasks.
-
✅ Improved Tailings Quality: Reduces magnetic content in tailings by 1–3% more than standard separators, maximizing mineral yield.
-
✅ Enhanced Magnetic Wrap Angle: Wider arc ensures longer magnetic exposure time, improving concentrate grade by 2–4%.
-
✅ Stable Liquid Level: Tank is designed to maintain a steady slurry depth, improving separation efficiency and particle guidance.
Pretty slick, right? This system combines durability with precision—so you get more out of every ton.
