Magnetic Separation Equipment

Dry Drum Magnetic Separator

The Dry Drum Magnetic Separator is used in a dry material flow where magnetic response is used to split a feed into defined fractions or remove ferromagnetic contamination. Its outcome depends on the material trajectory over the drum, feed consistency, particle size, moisture and the process target rather than on a catalogue claim alone.

  • Process position before model
  • Feed condition controls the design
  • Target stream is defined
  • Testing may be required
Process role
Pre-concentration, recovery or magnetic impurity removal
Feed state
Dry bulk or slurry, depending on the equipment
Separation basis
Magnetic response and process flow
Selection starts with
Mineral, particle size, feed condition and target

Overview and how it fits the process

The Dry Drum Magnetic Separator is used in a dry material flow where magnetic response is used to split a feed into defined fractions or remove ferromagnetic contamination. Its outcome depends on the material trajectory over the drum, feed consistency, particle size, moisture and the process target rather than on a catalogue claim alone.

It may be reviewed for mineral pre-concentration, dry bulk purification or a prepared recycling stream. The project should identify the feed preparation, the intended magnetic and non-magnetic outlets, the required capacity and how the equipment integrates with the upstream conveyor or feeder.
