The drum magnet, also called separation drum, contains two sectors: a magnetic and a non-magnetic sector. Around this system a drum rotates onto which the materials are dropped, passed on or picked up from waste lines. For effective removal, this drum is provided with idlers. The waste is fed onto the magnetic sector of the drum. The magnetic field forces the iron particles to remain longer on the drum. As they leave the drum further down, they can be collected separately.

The drum is made of stainless steel or manganese steel and has both a rotating and a stationary axle.The rotating axle is driven. The magnet field is positioned in conjunction with the stationary axle.The magnetic field here is 180 degrees. Bearing blocks are supplied.

Drum magnets are provided with either a permanent ceramic magnet, neodymium or high density system. Models with a 215 and 315mm drum bore can be supplied with a very powerful neodymium magnet system (add "/01" to the article no.). All models are almost maintenance free.

DRUM MAGNETS IN HOUSING

This magnet system, comprising a drum magnet in a solid housing can be incorporated easily into (existing) installations. The parts, which are exposed to the flow of materials, are made of extremely wear-resistant materials. This makes the system very suitable to de-iron extremely abrasive materials. A slip-on gear motor drives the separation drum. Next to the standard model, which is provided withh a ceramic magnet system, these models can be supplied with a very powerful neodymium magnet system (add "/01" to the article No.).
