Ferrous Metal Separators
Overband Magnets
Continuous ferrous metal removal from conveyors handling waste, aggregates, timber, glass, and scrap.
Protect crushers, shredders, screens, and sorters
Reduce ferrous contamination in saleable product
Limit manual picking requirements
Overband magnets are suspended over the conveyor to lift and discharge iron and steel from a moving stream before it damages plant or contaminates downstream material.
MSE specifies permanent and electro-magnetic duties around burden depth, conveyor speed, installation height, tramp metal size, and maintenance access.
Typical applications
- Construction and demolition waste
- Aggregates and quarrying
- Scrap yards
- Wood and biomass processing
Specification notes
- Install position
- Inline or crossbelt over conveyor
- Material handled
- Mixed waste, aggregates, scrap, timber, glass
- Selection factors
- Burden depth, belt speed, suspension height, metal size
- Support
- Site survey, sizing, installation planning, and service
