Overband Magnetic Separator
Automatic Removal of Ferrous Scrap from Conveyor Systems
Designed for continuous separation of tramp metal from conveyor-fed materials in heavy industrial environments.
The Overband Magnetic Separator provides automatic and continuous removal of ferrous contaminants from materials transported on conveyor belts. Installed above the conveyor, the unit generates a strong magnetic field that attracts unwanted steel and iron pieces. A self-cleaning rubber belt system automatically discharges the captured metal, enabling non-stop processing.
Available in both Permanent Magnet and Electromagnetic models, Overband Magnetic Separators are ideal for large-scale industrial applications where heavy, abrasive, or high-volume materials require efficient tramp metal removal.
