Housed Drum Magnet
Description:
The Greenwood Housed drum magnet is designed for the
continuous extraction of ferrous metal contamination
from dry bulk material. Material is fed uniformly onto
to the surface of the drum from a conveyor, vibratory
feeder or chute work, ensuring continuous contamination
removal. As the outer shell rotates, clean product is
allowed to free fall through the first chute, while
powerful magnets hold ferrous contamination to the point
where the magnetism ends, discharging the metal through
the second chute, thus ensuring separation.

Ideal for free flowing dry products
such as granules, grains, minerals and powders.
We manufacture the drum in a:
Standard Ferrite Version – for
general tramp iron contamination such as nuts and bolts
High Intensity Version – for
fine paramagnetic materials where a greater level of
protection is required.

Above: High intensity (3500 gauss)
Rare Earth Housed Magnetic Drum
300 dia x 600 long for metal contamination removal in
a mineral
plant in a high temperature environment. The motor was
IP 65
rated, tropicalised with anti condensation heaters,
and fitted
with motion sensors.
We can also supply the drum without
housing where dust is not a problem and connecting chute
work is not required.

Above: The side panel is removed
to show the magnetic drum
which can be supplied without housing. The lever on
the
right allows for ideal positioning of the magnetic semi
-spere.
