Electromagnetic Separation

Electromagnetic Separation

Starting with a mixture of any of the above minerals it may be determined whether or not they can be separated by high tension, magnetic, or gravity methods and whether any one, or a combination of “Electromagnetic Separation” methods is required. If the minerals appear in different columns they may be separated by high tension and/or … Read more

Laboratory Magnetic Separator & Test Procedure

Laboratory High Intensity

This Laboratory Magnetic Separator is a high intensity dry device which uses a rotating iron disc to concentrate the magnetic field and remove the magnetic particles from the non-magnetic.  It essentially consists of an electromagnet (the applied current is controlled by a rheostat) which produces a magnetic field across the air gap and a belt which … Read more

Magnetic Separation Method

Magnetic Minerals

Magnetic separation is a process used to separate materials from those that are less or non­magnetic. All materials have a response when placed in a magnetic field, although with most, the effect is too slight to be detected. The few materials that are strongly affected (magnetised) by magnetic fields are known as “Ferromagnetics”, those lesser … Read more
