Separation MagnetsProduct Literature

Walker engineers and manufactures magnetic pulleys, drums, suspended magnetic separators, and eddy-current separators designed for beneficiation, tramp iron removal, non-ferrous metal recovery and various other separation processing applications. Walker offers permanent and electromagnetic designs with the option of self-cleaning or manual-cleaning features. Complete systems can be designed into new separation facilities or incorporated into existing installations.

Magnetic Pulleys

Electromagnetic Pulley

While we have highly effective permanent magnetic industrial separator magnets, some slag processing, iron ore cobbing and other separator magnet operations may require an electromagnetic separator magnet. For these situations, we offer a range of electromagnetic pulleys in the same range of diameters and belt widths as our permanent magnetic pulleys.

Used for applications such as iron ore cobbing, slag processing, mineral beneficiation, auto shredding, blue box recycling, aggregate processing, food processing, etc.

Permanent Magnetic Pulley

If you are in search of a powerful permanent separator magnet for functions like metal processing and recycling, our DynaForce™ separator magnets are a powerful choice. These magnets focus the flux of oriented Ceramax magnets on the pully’s peripheral surface to provide maximum holding force.

Used for applications such as iron ore cobbing, slag processing, mineral beneficiation, auto shredding, blue box recycling, aggregate processing, food processing, etc.

Self-Cleaning Suspended Magnetic Separator

Our innovative, deep-penetrating and self-cleaning suspended magnetic separators are made to easily and efficiently remove tramp metal from conveyors continually as those conveyors move quickly through the processing cycle. They feature a precision-wound coil assembly with rapid heat dissipation, a high-strength design, and Class R insulation. They are oil-cooled and self-cleaning and are available as electromagnetic separators, permanent magnetic separators or R-Series with rare-earth permanent magnets.

Electromagnetic Suspended Separator

Self-cleaning and designed to remove large and small tramp metal from conveyors.

Permanent Magnetic Suspended Separator

Self-cleaning and designed to remove large and small tramp metal from conveyors.

R-Series Suspended Separator

Self-cleaning and designed and for use in mobile crushing plants.

Manual-Cleaning Suspended Magnetic Separators

We can provide a manual cleaning separator magnet in both electromagnetic and permanent magnet forms. These magnetic separators can do all the things that our self-cleaning magnetic separators can do, but are manually cleaned and discharged electrically.

Electromagnetic Suspended Separator

Manual cleaning and designed to remove large and small tramp metal from conveyors.

Permanent Magnetic Suspended Separator

Manual cleaning and designed to remove large and small tramp metal from conveyors.

Magnetic Drum Separators

Electromagnetic Drum Separator

Our electromagnets are wound with Class R insulated wire and constructed for the dissipation of concentrated heat without external cooling.

The electromagnetic design used in auto shredding, blue box recycling, municipal solid waste, mining and more. Available with either axial or radial pole constructions.

Permanent Magnetic Drum Separator

These magnet assemblies use strontium ferrite magnets which have tremendous temperature resistance and can accommodate feed widths up to 96”.

The permanent magnetic design used in auto shredding, blue box recycling, municipal solid waste, mining and more. Available with either axial or radial pole constructions.

Eddy Current Separation Systems

Eddy-Current Separator

Designed to separate aluminum & other non-ferrous metals from your process stream, municipal recycling facility (MRF), municipal solid waste facility (MSW), scrap residue and other recyclables.
