Magnetic Separation Is A Process in Which Magnetically Susceptible Material Is Extracted From A Mixture Using A Magnetic Force

Magnetic Metal separator is the device used to separate ferrite and magnetic particles from
a combination of metals and plastics and non-metallic objects. In our project we have done
a mini magnetic metal separator with the help of small permanent play magnets for the
separation ferrite objects moving in the conveyor belt. Its separates ferrite objects of 50gms
to 150gms.
Magnetic separation is a process in which magnetically susceptible material is extracted from a
mixture using a magnetic force. This separation technique can be useful in mining iron as it is
attracted to a magnet. In mines where wolframite was mixed with cassiterite, such as South
Crofty and East Pool mine in Cornwall or with bismuth such as at the Shepherd and Murphy
mine in Moina, Tasmania, magnetic separation was used to separate the ores. At these mines a
device called a Wetherill's Magnetic Separator (invented by John Price Wetherill, 18441906)[1]
was used. In this machine the raw ore, after calcination was fed onto a moving belt which passed
underneath two pairs of electromagnets under which further belts ran at right angles to the feed
belt. The first pair of electromagnets was weakly magnetised and served to draw off any iron ore
present. The second pair were strongly magnetised and attracted the wolframite, which is weakly
magnetic. These machines were capable of treating 10 tons of ore a day.
It is also used in electromagnetic cranes that separate magnetic material from scraps. [2]

Working Principal & Magnetic System :
The permanent Magnetic Drum consists of stationery permanent Magnetic assembly

having uniform and everlasting Magnetic field across the entire width of the drum, which
is effective over approximately half the drum circumferences as shown in fig.
Drum shell made of non magnetic stainless steel revolves around the magnetic filed. As the
material fed evenly from the chute falls over the drum ,powerful magnetic, field attract &
holds ferrous particles to the revolving shell. As the revolving shell carries the iron
particles through the stationery magnetic field, the non magnetic material falls freely from
the shell while ferrous particles are firmly held until carried beyond divider and out of
magnetic field.
The strength of the permanent magnetic drum is guaranteed to be greater than
corresponding electromagnetic Drum . The permanent magnets used are everlasting
magnets and its strength does not diminish during normal use and can be used through out
the life of the installation.
Size Range :
The Permanent Drum Separators are available in standard drum diameters of 300 mm. 400
mm, 450 mm, 500 mm, 600 mm, 800 mm Drum width range from 300 mm to 1500 mm.
Other sizes can be made as special to your requirement. the larger the diameter and width
of the drum the greater is the volume of material which can be handled.
Magnetic Materials :
Magnetic separators are offered with two different type of magnets.
Ferrite Magnet :
The magnetic separator with ceramic magnet are useful for the application where free and larger
iron particles are to be separated. The average magnetic intensity on the magnetic drum surface
will be 1500-2000 Gauss.
Rare Earth Magnet :
The magnetic separator with high intensity Rare Earth Nd-Fe-B (Neodymium- Iron- Boron)
magnets are useful for removing magnetic contamination with low magnetic properties and fine
iron particles are to be separated. The average magnetic intensity on the drum surface will be
3500 - 5500 Gauss.
MAGNETIC SEPARATOR - PURPOSE
Overbelt or Overband magnetic separator deliver precise and efficient sorting

of ferrous metals from inert materials (glass, coal, plastic, paper, wood, garbage, fertilizers,
etc.) and non-ferrous metals (aluminium, stainless steel, copper, brass).
The Overbelt magnetic separator is widely used by various waste recyclers for valuable
material extraction and in such industries as plastics, glass, wood, paper, food, foundry, etc. to
improve product purity and protect processing equipment from damage.
Due to our extensive experience we will determine with you an optimal solution to your
specific need. We realize that we all win when we work together.

HOW THE MAGNETIC SEPARATOR WORKS
Overbelt magnetic separator is placed crosswise or lengthwise above the conveyor tape at a
fixed working distance. From flowing material iron objects are captured by the magnetic
power and with the overbelt magnets carried away. When the iron objects leave the area of the
magnetic field they automatically drop into appropriate canals or containers.
Our engineering solutions offer you remarkable efficiency in iron extraction. This
unprecedented level of sorting purity and efficiency is made possible thanks to high powerful,
far-reaching magnetic fields and machines development for your specific needs.
Cogelme produces different permanent magnetic separator and electro magnetic
separator types. The most suitable type to your situation depends on installation height, your
material dimensions and the materials layer thickness.

OVERBELT MAGNETIC SEPARATOR MODELS
Magnetic Separator with Permanent Magnets:
with Ferrite magnets - mod. SMF - are the most used for optimal extraction of middle
size ferrous metals;
with Neodymium magnets - mod. SMN - for optimal extraction of little ferrous metals
parts: iron dusts, little pieces of wired glass, iron powder and etc.
An advantage of a permanent overbelt magnetic separator is free magnet maintenance and no
need of electrical current for generation of the magnetic field.

In the recent past the problem of removing the deleterious iron particles from a process stream
had a few alternatives. Magnetic separation was typically limited and moderately effective.
Magnetic separators that used permanent magnets could generate fields of low intensity only.
These worked well in removing ferrous tramp but not fine paramagnetic particles. Thus high
intensity magnetic separators that were effective in collecting paramagnetic particles came into
existence. These focus on the separation of very fine particles that are paramagnetic.
The current is passed through the coil, which creates a magnetic field, which magnetizes the
expanded steel matrix ring. The matrix material being paramagnetic behaves like a magnet in the
magnetic field and thereby attracts the fines. The ring is rinsed when it is in the magnetic field
and all the non-magnetic particles are carried with the rinse water. Next as the ring leaves the
magnetic zone the ring is flushed and a vacuum of about 0.3 bars is applied to remove the
magnetic particles attached to the matrix ring.
Standard operating procedure[edit]

High Gradient Magnetic Separator is to separate magnetic & non-magnetic particles (concentrate
& tails) from the feed slurry. This feed comes from intermediate thickener underflow pump
through Linear Screen & Passive Matrix. Tailings go to tailing thickener & product goes to throw
launder through vacuum tanks
As we seen the various magnetic metal separation process and equipments which are more
complex and high power consuming. The above process are not suitable for small scale
industries. By using our mini magnetic metal separator we can use it more efficiently and
less power consuming and easy process for the small scale industries. This is the most
efficient and easiest way of metal separator comparing to all above methods for small scale
industries.
