Supported by expert engineering, fabrication, installation, and technical services, our solutions help mining operations reduce downtime, protect valuable equipment, improve safety, and maximise productivity.

Why Magnetic Separation Matters in Mining

Mining and mineral processing operations continuously encounter tramp metal contamination from drilling, blasting, excavation, crushing, and material handling activities.

Protect Critical Equipment

Protect crushers, mills, screens, and conveyors from damaging tramp metal contamination.

Reduce Damage and Downtime

Reduce costly equipment damage and unplanned operational downtime.

Improve Plant Reliability

Improve plant reliability and operational efficiency across demanding mining environments.

Recover Ferrous Materials

Recover valuable ferrous materials from mining and mineral processing streams.

Improve Beneficiation Quality

Improve beneficiation performance, mineral recovery, and product quality.

Reduce Maintenance Costs

Reduce maintenance costs by preventing metal contamination from damaging downstream equipment.

Extend Equipment Lifespan

Extend equipment lifespan through effective magnetic protection.

Improve Workplace Safety

Improve workplace safety by removing dangerous tramp metal from process and material handling systems.

Common Mining Contaminants

Mining operations frequently encounter tramp metal and ferrous contamination. Removing these contaminants before they reach critical equipment can prevent costly failures and unplanned shutdowns.

Broken Drill Bits

Broken drill bits can enter material streams during drilling and blasting operations.

Roof Bolts

Roof bolts and support hardware can contaminate mined material and damage processing equipment.

Excavator Teeth

Excavator teeth and bucket components can break loose during loading and excavation.

Loader Bucket Fragments

Loader bucket fragments can enter conveyor and crushing systems during material handling.

Crusher Wear Parts

Crusher wear parts can break away and cause further downstream equipment damage.

Steel Reinforcement Bars

Steel reinforcement bars and heavy tramp iron can damage crushers, mills, screens, and conveyors.

Wire Rope Fragments

Wire rope fragments can enter the process from lifting, hauling, and site operations.

Steel Tools and Hardware

Steel tools, fasteners, bolts, and general hardware can contaminate mining material streams.

Fine Ferrous Wear Particles

Fine ferrous wear particles are generated through continuous equipment wear in demanding mining environments.

Core Applications

Crusher Protection

Overband magnets and suspended magnetic separators remove damaging tramp iron before it enters primary and secondary crushers.

Conveyor Protection

Pulley magnets and suspended separators continuously remove ferrous contaminants from conveyed material streams.

Mineral Beneficiation

Drum separators recover valuable magnetic minerals and improve overall beneficiation efficiency.

Screening and Processing Plants

Magnetic separation systems protect screens, mills, pumps, and processing equipment from metal contamination.

Scrap Recovery

Mining operations can recover and remove unwanted ferrous materials from waste streams and process materials.
