Magnetic rollers are used to separate metallic components and particles from bulk mixtures (wood, aggregates, coal, nonferrous metals, waste mixtures). Self-cleaning magnetic roller is incorporated as a return roll of a belt conveyor on which material is transported for separation. Metallic particles are trapped with the magnetic roller and taken away as far as behind the roller axis where their separation takes place and metals fall off spontaneously - please see the animation.

Use of the magnetic roller will improve quality of processed material considerably. It is also suitable to utilize it wherever it is necessary to protect downstream equipment against damage caused by metallic particles. In case of a thicker layer of transported material, we recommend its using also in a combination with a magnet above the conveyor that will allow separating metals from the top layer of separated material effectively.
