Rare Earth Roll or Induced Magnetic Roll

Induced roll

Comparing Two High Intensity Magnetic Separators High intensity magnetic separators remove ferro and para magnetic particles from dry non-metallic minerals.  However, the design of the separation system dictates the final product purity and product losses.  The two most common designs of dry high intensity magnetic separator are the Induced Roll (IMR) and the Rare Earth…

Magnetic Separators For Mineral Processing

Aggregate Quarrying

Magnetic separators can be found in most mineral processing operations, especially those processing non-metallic minerals and magnetic ores.  This article investigates the use of high intensity magnetic separators and magnetic separation equipment in the minerals sector with a focus on processing dry materials (in the -15mm, +45 micron size range). Principles of Magnetic Separators There…

Video Explanation of the Induced Magnetic Roll Separator IMR

magnetic separation

The Induced Magnetic Roll Separator (IMR) has been used in the non-metallic mineral industry for decades.  However, the popularity of this high intensity magnetic separator dwindled after the development of the Rare Earth (RE) Roll Magnetic Separator in the late 70s early 80s.  Whereas the magnetic forces in an IMR were electromagnetically generated, high intensity…

5 High Intensity Magnetic Separators for SODEX Mines

Magnetic separators manufacturer

Bunting manufactured five (5) high intensity Magnetic Separators for SODEX Mines in Nigeria.  The mineral processing company specialises in the production of Columbite concentrates that are used in the manufacture of superconductive alloys. Prior to contacting Bunting, SODEX Mines were using old and outdated magnetic separators.  Subsequently, they were experiencing difficulties in upgrading their final…
