MAGNETIC BARRAGE AND SEPARATION

Ferromagnetic impurities in loose materials and liquids are a serious problem in many branches of industry. Magnetic impurities (both dispersed and magnetic objects of considerable size) can reduce the quality of the final products or even damage valuable equipment.
In particular, the following materials should be free from such impurities:

  • food substances: flour, sugar, coffee, tea, etc.;
  • fodder and provender, haylage, chopped grass, granules;
  • industrial and construction materials: ceramic powders, alumina, sands;
  • chemical materials: granular polyethylene, polypropylene, PVC, etc.;
  • any other loose materials that should be free from ferromagnetic impurities (e.g., wood chips for production of resin-bonded chipboards).
  • liquid solutions used in ceramics and chemical production, emulsions, slurry, dross, and also drill liquids used in oil industry.
Magnetic separators are commonly used to remove the magnetic impurities from a flow of loose materials and liquids. We hope that a wide range of magnetic separators produced by the MMT Company can help you to solve the problem.
Research and production Company MMT Ltd. produces permanent magnets and magnetic systems for various applications, including magnetic separators for extraction of ferromagnetic impurities from loose materials and liquids. The degree of the product purification depends on many factors even for a given setup of the magnetic separator. Physical and geometrical properties of the objects to be removed from the flow, as well as mechanical properties of the product and flow geometry inside the separator influence the ability of the magnets to catch the magnetic objects.
Magnetic field in the MMT magnetic separators is produced by modern high-energy permanent magnets based on Nd-Fe-B sintered compounds. Relatively small size and high temporal stability of the magnetic characteristics are among the main features of such magnets. Service term of such magnets exceeds 10 years, so almost no periodical control of the magnetic properties is necessary.
We hope that the typical designs of the magnetic separators and their magnetic systems presented below shall help you to make your choice or to formulate more detailed specifications. Research and production Company MMT Ltd. is always ready to adapt the design of our products for your applications.

Here are several typical designs of magnetic separators developed and produced by MMT R&P Company.

1. Slotted separators with flat and tube-like elements of the magnetic grid

2. Flat magnetic screens

3. Separators with free passage section for inclined product pipelines

All the magnetic separators produced by the MMT Company are made of materials that do not pollute the separated products. Optimised magnetic systems of the MMT magnetic separators made of modern sintered rare-earth permanent magnets with energy up to 4.5*106 Gs*Oersted ensure unrivalled separation efficiency.
Construction material used in MMT separators, polished stainless steel of the standard 12Õ18Í10Ò, prevents spark formation even when large metallic objects hit the separator wall.
Design of the MMT separators allows to mount them into any hermetic or open channels with different configuration and sizes in existing and new developed equipment, and also to use it separately (e.g., in any convenient place along the conveyor belt line).

Typical sizes and characteristics of the MMT magnetic separators are shown in Technical specifications ÒÓ 6391-001-18785310-00 «Magnetic separators for removal of ferromagnetic impurities». These products comply with the State sanitary and epidemiological regulations. (See the Sanitary certificate ¹ 77.01.04.639.Ò.12761.05.2 issued on 06.05.02).

MMT Company also offer a novel Drill liquid magnetic separator developed and produced on request of and in cooperation with the oil-producing Stock Company "Surgutneftegaz".

A more detailed information on the magnetic separators produced by MMT Company can be found in the following papers: Ravdin A., Dormidontov A.G., Mukho S.B., and Sergeyev S.V. «New trends in separation of grain and grain products» // «Khleboprodukty» ¹ 5, 2001., pp.18-20 and Ravdin A., Temirov M., Dormidontov A.G.. «Magnetic separators for safety control» // «Khleborpodukty» ¹ 9, 2002, pp.26-27.
