Our Products : Magnets & Separators : Pulley Magnets


Product Description

The Master Magnets pulley separators are an easy, reliable solution for the continuous extraction of ferrous metals from a product stream. Magnetic pulley separators are installed as a replacement head pulley at the discharge end of a conveyor. A non magnetic adjustable diverter plate is installed beneath the pulley to split the ferrous material away from the non-ferrous materials in the product stream. As non-metallic materials free-fall at their normal trajectory, the 360 degree magnet system ensures that the ferrous materials are discharged behind the centre line of the pulley (see below).

The Master Magnets magnetic head pulleys are custom built and are available in a wide range of diameters and face widths. The pulley sizes will be recommended based on customer's installation or application. The Mastermag range of permanent pulley magnets are manufactured using ferrite materials. Rare earth materials can be used when particular applications require removal of finer iron particles. The pulley magnet can also be supplied as an electro magnetic unit for an even better level of extraction. Master Magnets advise each and every customer on the most cost-effective type of unit to suit their particular application. In addition to supplying pulleys, Master Magnets can also supply a complete separator system with conveyors for clients that do not already have a conveyor system on their site.

Models

Pulley Magnets

The Master Magnets range of magnetic pulleys are the most cost-effective solutions for removing ferrous metals from shallow product streams. Master Magnets can manufacture a wide range of permanent and electro magnetic pulleys, depending on the strength required to ensure a high quality separation.

Permanent Magnetic Pulleys

For applications that require the separation of nails, screws and bolt-sized tramp ferrous, permanent pulley magnets are a simple and effective solution for providing a continuous extraction. They are also commonly used as a secondary magnetic solution, to ensure maximum levels of ferrous recovery. The permanent range of conveyor head pulleys are available with either a Ferrite or Rare Earth magnet system. Each of the permanent magnetic blocks are individually mounted onto a high permeability steel back bar and fitted with a heavy-duty stainless-steel crowned face cover.
Electro Magnetic Pulleys
For more demanding applications that may require the separation of larger or heavier ferrous metals, electromagnetic pulleys can be supplied. The electro range of pulley magnets are of extremely heavy-duty design. The internal electromagnetic systems are shaft mounted and revolve with the pulley to ensure the entire surface is magnetised whenever the pulley is energised.

Applications

Typical applications for the Mastermag range of magnetic pulleys are;

Installation on Mobile Crushers, Screens and Shredders
Installation within a MRF (Material Recovery Facility) plant
Separation of ferrous contamination in quarries
Removal of ferrous materials in mining operations
Used in wood waste processing applications
Separation of ferrous in municipal solid waste recovery
Removal of ferrous contamination in glass recycling
Separation of ferrous metals in kerbside collection recycling
Separation of ferrous metals in skip waste recycling
Removal of ferrous from foundry applications
