Disc Separators  Print |  E-mail

The disc type separator is one of the most widely used magnetic separators in the world and has a lengthy history. Feed material is discharged from a hopper to a vibratory feeder tray.

A thin layer of material is continuously transported beneath the rotating discs where magnetic particles are attracted to the high gradient magnetic zones on the discs. The rotating discs then carry these captured particles to the discharge chutes where they are released. Scrapers mounted on chutes ensure the total discharge of magnetic particles.

Non-magnetic material is then transported through a second magnetic separation zone where secondary separation occurs, and is finally discharged at the end of the machine as a clean non-magnetic product.

Applications

Typical examples of applications are;

  • Concentration of dry, granular minerals such as ilmenite, garnet, monazite, wolframite, columbite, tantalite and etc.
  • Removal of minerals of low susceptibility from cassiterite, zircon, scheelite, rutile and etc.
  • Purification of quartz for the glass production industry.
  • Laboratories
  • Sample testing

Models

One, two or three disc's are available. The belt widths can also vary depending on the throughput required.
