JinXin Iron Separator Export to Africa

An overbelt magnet, also known as a belt conveyor magnet, is a type of magnetic separator widely used in industrial settings to remove ferrous (iron-containing) contaminants from bulk materials transported by belt conveyors.

 
Key Features and Functionality:
 
Design: Typically consists of a powerful permanent magnet or electromagnet mounted above or below a conveyor belt. The magnet is positioned to create a strong magnetic field across the belt's width.
Working Principle: As materials (such as coal, ore, grains, or recycling) move along the conveyor, ferrous particles (e.g., nails, bolts, scrap metal) are attracted to the magnet, separating them from the non-magnetic bulk material.
Applications: Commonly used in mining, recycling, agriculture, and manufacturing to protect equipment (like crushers or grinders) from damage, ensure product purity, and enhance safety.
 
Variations include suspended overbelt magnets (mounted above the belt) and self-cleaning models, which automatically remove collected ferrous materials for continuous operation.
