Applications

The Lenoir-Mec high-intensity magnetic separator (SLT) is designed to extract weakly magnetic particles from ores, ceramics, powders and other industrial materials.

High-intensity magnetic separator (SLT): its powerful, adjustable magnetic field ensures precise and efficient separation of metal contaminants, optimising the purity of finished products.

The SLT high-intensity magnetic separator is used in several sectors:

  • Chemical and pharmaceutical industry
  • Mining and extraction industry
  • Cement plants and foundries

Operating principles

Operating principle of our SLT high-intensity magnetic separators :

  • The product is fed onto the rotating shell by a vibratory feeder.
  • Magnetic elements are attracted by the magnetic field of the upper drum (option).
  • The high-intensity drum retains the ferromagnetic particles.
  • Metal impurities are discharged separately for optimal purification.

Operating tips

Advice from our Lenoir-Mec experts:

  • Adjust the drum height for optimal magnetic separation.
  • Check the lining regularly to limit wear.
  • Adjust the vibratory feeder speed to the material flow.
  • Combine the SLT with other separators to improve efficiency.

Frequently asked questions

What is the SLT high-intensity magnetic separator used for?

It is designed to extract weakly magnetic particles from ores, ceramics, powders and other industrial materials. It is used in the chemical, pharmaceutical and mining industries, as well as in cement plants and foundries.

How does the SLT work?

The product is fed onto the rotating shell by a vibratory feeder, and the high-intensity drum retains the ferromagnetic particles. Metal impurities are discharged separately; an upper drum is available as an option.

What is the performance of the SLT?

Throughput varies by model, up to 6 t/h. The magnetic circuit uses high-intensity neodymium permanent magnets of up to 6,500 Gauss.

What are the mechanical components and settings of the SLT?

It features variable-speed geared motors with belt drive and a collection chute with adjustable flaps. The drum height and the vibratory feeder speed can also be adjusted to the material flow.

What maintenance does the SLT require?

The lining must be checked regularly to limit wear. The lining is an anti-abrasion type, for greater durability.

To size your machine, have ready:

  • The material handled (type, particle size, moisture, temperature)
  • The throughput (t/h or m³/h) and bulk density
  • The conveying: belt width or chute section, speed, burden depth
  • The contaminants to remove (size and shape of ferrous or non-ferrous parts)
  • Site constraints: available space, ATEX zone, hygiene standards
