Wet High Intensity Magnetic Separator
High Intensity Magnetic Separation at UK Mining Conference
High intensity magnetic separation and enhanced tramp metal magnetic separation is the focus for Bunting at the UK Mining Conference in Cornwall, UK (12-13 June 2024). High-profile delegates including investors, brokers, operators, and the mining supply chain attend the two-day conference, held at the historic Princess Pavilion in Falmouth in Cornwall. The recent rise in…
Read MoreUniversity of Birmingham Students Visit Bunting-Redditch
Second year Chemical Engineering students from the University of Birmingham visited Bunting’s Redditch manufacturing facility to gain a better understanding of the UK’s strong engineering and manufacturing sector. The BEng Chemical Engineering course at the University of Birmingham aims to develop the theoretical knowledge and practical skills needed for a successful career in chemical engineering. …
Read MoreLaboratory WHIMS for Wardell Armstrong
Wardell Armstrong, a leading global consultancy for mining and mineral processing, has acquired a laboratory-scale Wet High Intensity Magnetic Separator (WHIMS) from Bunting. The laboratory WHIMS is for the consultancy’s material test facility located in Cornwall, United Kingdom. The laboratory-scale WHIMS is part of Bunting’s range of small-scale high-intensity magnetic separators. Wardell Armstrong is a…
Read MoreTraining Future Metal Recyclers from EMR
Students, on a year’s work placement with European Metal Recycling (EMR), attended a training day at Bunting’s Redditch plant assessing the latest magnetic, eddy current and electrostatic separators. The training illustrated the importance of optimising material separation in the drive towards increasing secondary material recycling rates. EMR is a global leader in sustainable materials, investing…
Read MoreMagnetic Properties of Ceramic Minerals
Magnetic minerals and fine iron have plagued ceramic producers since the first glazed pot was produced many thousands of years ago. Early ceramicists adopted elaborate and colourful patterns to cover any imperfections caused by such contamination. Over time, the demand for white or single coloured ceramic products increased, making disguising any imperfection increasingly difficult. Ceramic…
Read MoreWet High Intensity Magnetic Separation Testing
The electromagnetic laboratory-scale Wet High Intensity Magnetic Separator (WHIMS) removes fine magnetics and para-magnetics from mineral slurries. Handling minerals in a slurry or suspension is preferable for many processors, especially when beneficiation involves wet processing. Additionally, a wet process often produces a better separation for very fine materials. In this educational video, Professor Neil Rowson…
Read MoreMineral Processing Lab High Intensity Electromagnetic Filter
A high intensity Electromagnetic Filter has expanded the mineral testing capabilities in the Bunting-Redditch mineral processing laboratory. The Electromagnetic Filter is designed to remove fine iron and weakly magnetic materials from mineral slurries and ceramics slips and glazes. The new equipment expands the extensive range of high intensity magnetic separators already used in the test…
