Overview - Magnetic Overband Separator

Heavy duty separator for recycling, quarrying and heavy industries

Permanent overband magnets can be placed above flat or trough type conveyors. Large permanent magnetic packs generate deep penetrating magnetic flux fields that attract and remove ‘tramp’ type steel items.

This unit is considerably cheaper to purchase and run than electromagnetic units, and the only power consumption is for the geared drive. When considering installation points it should be noted that steel belt support rollers will need to be changed to non-magnetic ones due to possible flux field absorption.

Applications
Suitable for all conveyable products; wood chip, biomass, recyclables, aggregates, coal etc.
Can be installed above transfer conveyors, vibratory feeder outlets etc

Benefits
Continuous self-cleaning
Designed for 24/7 operation
Allows difficult products to be screened
Removes large to medium-sized contamination
