Read MoreTramp Metal Removed from Reclaimed Kaolin
A major UK mineral processing company has installed two large Bullet Magnets to remove tramp ferrous metal from dry reclaimed kaolin. After initial discussions, Bunting conducted controlled tests in the Redditch Centre-of-Excellence. The reclaimed kaolin had a broad particle size range, with 95% below 250 microns. Iron contamination was approximately 1000ppm (although it could peak…
Read More3 Overband Magnet Installation Problems
The Permanent Overband Magnet is one of the most commonly used magnetic separators. Overband Magnets are found in most recycling plants recovering steel cans and other ferrous metals from a wide range of waste materials as well as in quarries (protecting crushers & screens) and on mobile plant (screens and crushers). However, incorrect installation leads…

One of the largest quarries in the US state of Georgia is protecting their processing plant against damage from tramp ferrous metal by installing a Bunting PCB1206-EL Permanent Crossbelt Separator. Junction City Mining helps build bridges in the US southeast by supplying high-quality aggregate materials for construction. The company required a massive structure to handle the…
Read MoreAmerican Quarries Install TN77 Metal Detectors
TN77 Metal Detectors are proving popular with quarry operators in the USA. The industrial Metal Detectors identify tramp metal in conveyed aggregate and prevent damage to screens and crushers. The TN77 metal detector is a tunnel-type Metal Detector used widely in the quarrying, mining and recycling industries where the conveyed material is non-metallic or non-conductive. …
Read MoreDetecting and Removing Tramp Metal from Conveyors
The process of quarrying aggregate and mining ore often results in the introduction of tramp metal. The effective detection and removal of this tramp metal is critical to prevent damage to crushers, screens and conveyors, and is achieved using metal detectors and magnetic separators. The design of metal detector or magnetic separator is dependent upon…
