Engineers often call this the magnetic working zone. Material moves toward the drum. Non-magnetic material follows its normal path. Magnetic material sticks to the drum shell and travels farther around the drum. It drops after it leaves the magnetic working zone. A splitter keeps the two discharge streams apart.<\/p>\r\n<p>Because the magnetic material leaves at a different point, the drum can separate it continuously. Corvelan sets the magnetic working zone, drum speed and splitter position around the real material path and separation target.<\/p>\r\n<\/div><\/section>\r\n<section class=\"cl-section cl-soft\" id=\"selection-factors\"><div class=\"cl-inner\">\r\n<div class=\"cl-kicker\">Performance Factors<\/div><h2>What Controls Magnetic Drum Separation Performance?<\/h2>\r\n<p>Magnetic drum separation depends on the material, the feed and the machine setup. Corvelan checks these factors together because one surface gauss reading cannot predict the full separation result.<\/p>\r\n<div class=\"cl-factor-list\">\r\n<div><strong>Material and target metal<\/strong><p>The type, size, shape and amount of metal affect how easily the drum can capture it.<\/p><\/div>\r\n<div><strong>Feed rate and distribution<\/strong><p>If too much material reaches the drum at once, the iron can be buried and become harder to capture.<\/p><\/div>\r\n<div><strong>Particle size and material depth<\/strong><p>A deeper material layer keeps some metal farther from the drum, which can make capture harder.<\/p><\/div>\r\n<div><strong>Working distance and field gradient<\/strong><p>The magnetic field must still be useful where the target metal actually passes the drum.<\/p><\/div>\r\n<div><strong>Velocity and contact opportunity<\/strong><p>The metal needs enough time near the drum to be attracted and carried to the magnetic discharge.<\/p><\/div>\r\n<div><strong>Drum geometry and magnetic area<\/strong><p>Drum diameter, face width, magnetic arc and magnetic circuit design shape the working area.<\/p><\/div>\r\n<div><strong>Speed and trajectory<\/strong><p>Drum speed changes how material approaches the drum and where each stream leaves it.<\/p><\/div>\r\n<div><strong>Splitter and discharge position<\/strong><p>The splitter must sit where the magnetic and non-magnetic streams naturally separate.<\/p><\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<div class=\"cl-definition-grid\">\r\n<div class=\"cl-definition\"><strong>Working distance<\/strong>The real gap between the target metal and the active magnetic area.

It is not a direct measurement of iron removal, magnetic recovery or product purity.<\/p><\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/div><\/section><section class=\"cl-section\" id=\"poor-separation\"><div class=\"cl-inner\">\r\n<div class=\"cl-kicker\">Troubleshooting<\/div>\r\n<h2>What Usually Causes Poor Magnetic Drum Separation?<\/h2>\r\n<p>A magnetic drum can only separate what it can reach, hold and discharge correctly. When results are weak or unstable, Corvelan checks the feed, working distance, material path and discharge before changing the magnetic system.<\/p>\r\n<div class=\"cl-grid-3\">\r\n<div class=\"cl-card\"><h3>Material Layer Is Too Deep<\/h3><p>Iron buried under too much material stays farther from the drum. This can make capture harder, especially for smaller pieces.<\/p><\/div>\r\n<div class=\"cl-card\"><h3>Feed Is Uneven<\/h3><p>Surges and poor feed distribution change the material path. They can also bury the target and make separation less consistent.<\/p><\/div>\r\n<div class=\"cl-card\"><h3>Working Distance Is Too Large<\/h3><p>Magnetic attraction becomes less useful as the target moves farther from the active magnetic area. The real working gap matters more than a surface reading alone.<\/p><\/div>\r\n<div class=\"cl-card\"><h3>Splitter Position Is Wrong<\/h3><p>The splitter must match the real discharge trajectory. A strong magnetic field cannot correct a splitter that sends captured material back into the wrong stream.<\/p><\/div>\r\n<div class=\"cl-card\"><h3>Target Is Weakly Magnetic<\/h3><p>Very fine or weakly magnetic particles may need a different separator type, a different magnetic design or a material test before final selection.<\/p><\/div>\r\n<div class=\"cl-card\"><h3>There Is Not Enough Discharge Space<\/h3><p>The magnetic and non-magnetic streams need clear paths after separation. Crowded chutes can cause remixing even when the drum captures the target correctly.<\/p><\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<div class=\"cl-note\"><strong>Corvelan checks the whole path:<\/strong> feed \u2192 working distance \u2192 drum \u2192 splitter \u2192 discharge. This is why we do not use one gauss number as a stand-alone performance promise.<\/div>\r\n<\/div><\/section>\r\n<section class=\"cl-section\"><div class=\"cl-inner\">\r\n<div class=\"cl-kicker\">Select<\/div><h2>What Can Be Configured on a Magnetic Drum Separator?<\/h2>\r\n<p>Corvelan configures the drum around the process instead of forcing the project into a catalogue number. We work through the feed, drum, magnetic area, speed, splitter and installation as one system.<\/p>\r\n<div class=\"cl-grid-3\">\r\n<div class=\"cl-card\"><h3>Feed Arrangement<\/h3><p>We check whether the material reaches the drum from a conveyor discharge, transfer point or gravity-fed chute. The goal is a steady, even feed.<\/p><\/div>\r\n<div class=\"cl-card\"><h3>Drum Diameter<\/h3><p>Reference SXGT diameters include \u03a6800, \u03a61000, \u03a61200 and \u03a61600 mm. We select the final diameter around the material path, feed width, available space and separation duty.<\/p><\/div>\r\n<div class=\"cl-card\"><h3>Face Width<\/h3><p>Reference SXGT drum lengths range from 1000 to 1600 mm. The effective width must cover the feed so material does not bypass the useful working area.<\/p><\/div>\r\n<div class=\"cl-card\"><h3>Magnetic Working Area<\/h3><p>We set the active magnetic area around the target metal, real working distance and material path. This controls where the target is attracted, carried and released.<\/p><\/div>\r\n<div class=\"cl-card\"><h3>Drum Speed and Drive<\/h3><p>Reference SXGT drive power ranges from 3.0 to 7.5 kW. Final drive selection also depends on drum size, duty, feed condition and the required control arrangement.<\/p><\/div>\r\n<div class=\"cl-card\"><h3>Splitter and Discharge<\/h3><p>The splitter separates the magnetic and non-magnetic discharge paths. Its position must match the real trajectory so the two streams do not remix.<\/p><\/div>\r\n<div class=\"cl-card\"><h3>Support and Guarding<\/h3><p>We check supports, rotating-part guarding and maintenance access around the drum and drive.<\/p><\/div>\r\n<div class=\"cl-card\"><h3>Chute and Housing Interface<\/h3><p>Feed chutes, discharge chutes and surrounding housing are checked against the material path and the space available on your line.<\/p><\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<div class=\"cl-note\">We select the drum size, magnetic system, speed and splitter position around your feed and required discharge arrangement.

We also check chute angles, discharge clearance and maintenance space.<\/p>\r\n<p>For the documented SXGT family, the technical sheet lists local manual control and centralized control. It also allows the separator to be interlocked with the belt conveyor. The final control scope, voltage and interlock logic are confirmed in the project documents.<\/p>\r\n<p>Avoid sudden feed surges where possible.

If your material is a wet slurry, we will check a wet drum separator instead.<\/p><\/details>\r\n<details><summary>Is higher gauss always better for a magnetic drum separator?<\/summary><p>No. A gauss reading shows the magnetic field at one measurement point. Separation also depends on working distance, target magnetic response, feed rate, material depth, particle size and speed. Drum geometry and discharge conditions also matter.<\/p><\/details>\r\n<details><summary>What are working distance and burden depth?<\/summary><p>Working distance is the real gap between the target metal and the active magnetic area. Burden depth is the thickness of material passing the separator. Both affect how close the target gets to the useful magnetic field.<\/p><\/details>\r\n<details><summary>What is the difference between a magnetic drum and a magnetic head pulley?<\/summary><p>A magnetic drum is a separate rotating separator placed at a feed or transfer point. A magnetic head pulley works as the conveyor head pulley. The right option depends on the conveyor layout, material depth, material path, available space and required discharge paths.<\/p><\/details>\r\n<details><summary>Can a magnetic drum handle high contaminant loading?<\/summary><p>A drum can discharge captured magnetic material continuously, which can suit processes with ongoing magnetic loading. The workable loading still depends on target size, feed condition, drum setup and discharge capacity. Send the expected metal type, size and loading so we can check the route.<\/p><\/details>\r\n<details><summary>How is magnetic drum separator performance checked?<\/summary><p>When performance is critical, use material and feed conditions that represent the real process. Record the relevant machine settings and agree on the result that will count as success. This is more useful than treating one surface field value or machine size as a separation guarantee.<\/p><\/details>\r\n<details><summary>What affects the capacity of a magnetic drum separator?<\/summary><p>Capacity is not set by drum size alone. It also depends on material bulk density, particle size, feed width, material depth, feed speed, magnetic loading and the separation result you need. Corvelan uses normal and peak throughput together with these conditions when planning the drum.<\/p><\/details>\r\n<details><summary>What information do you need to select a drum separator?<\/summary><p>Start with the material, its physical form, the metal or magnetic fraction you need to remove, and normal and peak throughput. Also send the installation condition or a line drawing. If available, add particle size, moisture, bulk density, material depth, temperature, magnetic loading, available space and the result you need to achieve.<\/p><\/details>\r\n<details><summary>What SXGT magnetic drum sizes are listed in the reference data?<\/summary><p>The supplied SXGT family data lists drum diameters of \u03a6800, \u03a61000, \u03a61200 and \u03a61600 mm, with reference drum lengths from 1000 to 1600 mm.

The right option depends on the conveyor layout, material depth, material path, available space and required discharge paths.\"}},{\"@type\":\"Question\",\"name\":\"Can a magnetic drum handle high contaminant loading?\",\"acceptedAnswer\":{\"@type\":\"Answer\",\"text\":\"A drum can discharge captured magnetic material continuously, which can suit processes with ongoing magnetic loading. The workable loading still depends on target size, feed condition, drum setup and discharge capacity. Send the expected metal type, size and loading so we can check the route.\"}},{\"@type\":\"Question\",\"name\":\"How is magnetic drum separator performance checked?\",\"acceptedAnswer\":{\"@type\":\"Answer\",\"text\":\"When performance is critical, use material and feed conditions that represent the real process. Record the relevant machine settings and agree on the result that will count as success. This is more useful than treating one surface field value or machine size as a separation guarantee.\"}},{\"@type\":\"Question\",\"name\":\"What affects the capacity of a magnetic drum separator?\",\"acceptedAnswer\":{\"@type\":\"Answer\",\"text\":\"Capacity is not set by drum size alone. It also depends on material bulk density, particle size, feed width, material depth, feed speed, magnetic loading and the separation result you need. Coverlan uses normal and peak throughput together with these conditions when planning the drum.\"}},{\"@type\":\"Question\",\"name\":\"What information do you need to select a drum separator?\",\"acceptedAnswer\":{\"@type\":\"Answer\",\"text\":\"Start with the material, its physical form, the metal or magnetic fraction you need to remove, and normal and peak throughput. Also send the installation condition or a line drawing. If available, add particle size, moisture, bulk density, material depth, temperature, magnetic loading, available space and the result you need to achieve.\"}},{\"@type\":\"Question\",\"name\":\"What SXGT magnetic drum sizes are listed in the reference data?\",\"acceptedAnswer\":{\"@type\":\"Answer\",\"text\":\"The supplied SXGT family data lists drum diameters of \u03a6800, \u03a61000, \u03a61200 and \u03a61600 mm, with reference drum lengths from 1000 to 1600 mm. Final size still depends on feed width, duty and installation space.\"}},{\"@type\":\"Question\",\"name\":\"What motor power is shown for the SXGT reference models?\",\"acceptedAnswer\":{\"@type\":\"Answer\",\"text\":\"The supplied SXGT family table lists 3.0, 4.0, 5.5 and 7.5 kW drives across the reference models. Final drive selection is confirmed against the selected drum size, duty and control requirements.\"}},{\"@type\":\"Question\",\"name\":\"Can the SXGT magnetic drum be interlocked with a conveyor?\",\"acceptedAnswer\":{\"@type\":\"Answer\",\"text\":\"Yes. The supplied SXGT family technical sheet lists local manual control and centralized control, and states that the separator can be interlocked with the belt conveyor. Final control logic is confirmed for the project.\"}}]}<\/script>\r\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\">{\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\"@type\":\"BreadcrumbList\",\"itemListElement\":[{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":1,\"name\":\"Home\",\"item\":\"https:\/\/www.corvelanmag.com\/\"},{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":2,\"name\":\"Magnetic Drum Separator\",\"item\":\"https:\/\/www.corvelanmag.com\/magnetic-drum-separator\/\"}]}<\/script>\r\n<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\n<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Continuous Dry Ferrous Removal Magnetic Drum Separator for Continuous Ferrous Removal Corvelan magnetic drum separators continuously remove ferrous metal from dry bulk material.
