Applications & Industries

Magnetic Separation Applications by Industry and Material

The same separator family can serve different industries for contamination removal, equipment protection or magnetic recovery. Equipment selection still depends on the actual material and feed conditions.

Why Choose Corvelan

Choose a Magnetic Separator That Fits Your Material and Conveyor

Magnetic separator performance depends on more than magnet strength. Magnetic, mechanical and process conditions need to be reviewed together before the equipment configuration is finalized.

01 / APPLICATION

Application-Based Selection

Start with material flow, separation goal and discharge requirement before choosing a model.

02 / MAGNETICS

Magnetic Circuit Engineering

Review magnet material, pole geometry, working distance and the field required at the actual separation point.

03 / MECHANICAL

Custom Mechanical Integration

Confirm inlet, outlet, mounting, maintenance clearance and access against the line layout.

04 / ACCEPTANCE

Defined Inspection

Agree critical dimensions, magnetic test positions and functional checks before manufacturing.

Reduce Procurement Risk Before Production

Define the Conditions That Usually Cause Expensive Rework

SelectionWrong Separator Type

First, tell us how the material moves and what you need to remove or recover.

MagneticsWorking Distance Too Large

Control: define burden depth or process gap instead of relying on surface Gauss.

MechanicalInstallation Mismatch

We check the installation dimensions, connections and service space on the project drawing.

AcceptanceUnclear Inspection Criteria

Control: agree inspection points before manufacturing begins.

Manufacturing & Inspection

Quality Checks Before Shipment

Inspection points are defined against the approved drawing and project specification. Depending on equipment scope, checks can include dimensions, mechanical function, magnetic measurement points and agreed pre-shipment items.

FAQ

Magnetic Separator Manufacturer FAQ

What types of magnetic separators does Corvelan work with?

Corvelan works with magnetic drum separators, plate magnets, suspended-magnet, magnetic pulley, grate, tube and drawer configurations for different installation locations. The final equipment scope is confirmed from the application, quotation and project drawing.

How do I choose the right magnetic separator?

Start with the material, target contaminant or magnetic fraction, particle size, throughput, feed method, burden depth or working distance, installation space and cleaning or discharge requirement. Those conditions narrow the separator selection faster than comparing Gauss values alone.

Can Corvelan customize a magnetic separator for an existing line?

Yes. Send the existing chute, conveyor or line layout together with material and contaminant information so the installation position, dimensions, interfaces and maintenance clearance can be reviewed before quotation.

Does higher Gauss mean better magnetic separation?

No. Higher surface Gauss does not automatically mean better separation. Working distance, field gradient, particle response, material depth, feed presentation, exposure and separator geometry also affect the result.

How is magnetic separator throughput determined?

Throughput must be tied to the material and process conditions. Particle size, bulk density, moisture, feed width, burden depth, flow behavior, separator geometry and the separation target all affect practical capacity.

What information should I send for a quotation?

Send the material name, particle-size range, moisture or slurry condition, normal and peak throughput, contaminant or magnetic fraction, feed width, burden depth or working distance, installation photos or drawing, available space, temperature, cleaning or discharge requirement and any defined acceptance test.

How is the equipment inspected before shipment?

Inspection should follow the approved project scope. Depending on the equipment, this can include critical dimensions, mechanical function, defined magnetic measurement points and other agreed pre-shipment checks.
