Pulley magnet separators consist in a ferrous drum on which are mounted permanent magnet blocks to create alternate polarities (in either axial or radial configuration) on the all circumference of the pulley. Pulley magnet separators are typically used as head pulley of a conveyor belt taking advantage of the belt to discharge the ferrous from the magnetic attraction of the pulley.
Pulley magnets are used for either the recovery or elimination of ferrous metals in many different industrial applications like:
Coal
Auto Shredder Residue (ASR)
Municipal solid waste incinerator ash (IBA)
Municipal solid waste (MSW)
Glass scrap
Electronic scrap (WEEE)
Wood waste
Upgrade of Aluminium Scrap
