Introduction to Different Properties of Magnetic Separator

China is the first country in the world to discover the magnet and also among the first groups to apply the magnetism. Early in the year of 300 B.C., people discovered that the magnet can attract the scrap iron. The modern magnetic separation is divided according to the magnetism of the mineral particles.

When the mineral particles and the gangue particles go through the magnetic field, they move in different tracks in the action of the magnetic field because of their different particle magnetism. Attracted by the particle magnetic power, these minerals attach to the cylinder of the magnetic separator and then will be raised to certain height. Finally, they are crashed away from the magnetic field under high pressure from the cylinder. Sometimes, the non-magnetic materials are not attracted in the magnetic field, so they can’t attach to the cylinder of the separator. In this case, in the end we will get two kinds of products: the magnetic products in the concentrate box and the non-magnetic products in the tailings box.

We all know that the magnet can be divided to the natural one and the artificial one. The former also includes two types: the permanent magnet and the electromagnet. The difference lies in the composition. The permanent magnet is made of magnetic materials like magnetic alloy and ceramics magnet while the electromagnet is formed by rolling wires around the iron core to produce magnetism with the input of the direct current. However, the permanent magnet is the most popular one and we use it to make the permanent magnetic separator which is widely applied in the ore beneficiation plant.

With the wide range of applications in many industries, the magnetic separator is used to realize the resource recycling of many industrial materials. Knowing more about the machine will help users make full use.
