Magnetic Head Pulleys

Slag, minerals, wood chips, glass, Sand, WEEE, Shredder Residues, Municipal Waste

STEINERT Magnetic Head Pulleys attract tramp iron from these bulk materials in the same space as the normal conveyor belt head pulley. This avoids extensive reconstruction of your plant. Magnetic Head Pulleys protect your valuable processing equipment from damage by tramp iron that drum or suspension magnets miss buried in the burden.

STEINERT Magnetic pulleys are usually operated after the extraction of larger iron parts by other magnetic separators. Magnetic pulleys with strong neodymium type magnets can reclaim small, low magnetic particles - partially stainless - from the bulk materials.

BRP Technology

The strong magnetic field attracts the ferrous elements contained in the material stream and holds them to the conveyor belt while the non-ferrous bulk falls off. When the belt separates from the pulley on the return, the ferrous is pulled from the field into a separate pile. Higher belt speed levels improve the separation. Model BRP Q Axial Pole Systems allow excellent post-cleaning of the ferrous and a constant field over the entire width. Improved performance and efficiency at the pulley results in low tramp iron in your materials.

For special applications, extremely strong neodymium bore iron may be used to capture mildly magnetic stainless steel or minerals. Working widths from 300 mm to 2000 mm (12”–79”) and diameters from 240 mm to 640 mm (9-1/2”–25”) are available. Shaft and bearing specifications as per your requirements.

Our R&D department is glad to conduct tests with your material.
