Product catalog summary
Overview: The document describes the Permanent Rare Earth Extreme Drum Magnet, designed for automatic separation of heavy ferrous materials during scrap metal processing, such as meatballs or armature assemblies.
Benefits:
  • 40% stronger magnetic field compared to an Electro Magnet.
  • Wide pick-up zone for efficient separation.
  • Constructed with solid magnetic material across the entire width for consistent performance.
  • No heat-induced strength loss, ensuring durability.
  • Agitates and flips materials to release trapped debris.
  • Operates without power due to the use of permanent magnets.
  • Optional retractable jaw available for enhanced functionality.
Principle of Operation: As materials reach the drum, the magnetic field attracts ferrous scrap to the drum shell. The drum's rotation carries materials through the stationary magnetic field, allowing non-magnetic materials to fall away while ferrous materials are held until they exit the magnetic field and are deposited over the separator.
Comparison with Electro-Magnetic Systems: The P-Rex permanent magnet offers a 40% stronger magnetic field with twice the reach, enabling superior ferrous separation. It is particularly effective in capturing challenging spherical objects and mixed materials containing nonferrous metals and wires.

Permanent Scrap Drum Separator, P-Rex-1

SB342UK Permanent Magnetic Scrap Drum Separator Model: Permanent Rare Earth Extrme Drum Magnet for automatic separation of heavy ferrous during scrap metal processing such as meatballs or armature assemblies Principle of operation As material reaches the Drum, the magnetic field attracts and pulls scrap ferrous up to the Drum shell. As the Drum revolves, it carries the material through the stationary magnetic field. The non magnetic material falls freely from the shell, while ferrous materials are held firmly until they are carried out of the magnetic field and deposited over the top of the separator. Benefits 40% Stronger magnetic field compared to an Electro Magnet ꕕ Wide pick-up zone Constructed of solid magnetic material over the complete width for edge-to-edge performance Օ No heat induced strength loss Agitates and flips to shake free any trapped debris Օ Permanent magnets are used to produce the magnetic field and thus no power is required Optional retractable jaw available to pull the magnets away from the Drum shell

Permanent Scrap Drum Separator, P-Rex-2

P-Rex Permanent vs Electro-Magnetic comparison The permanent magnet in the P-Rex has a 40% stronger magnetic field during operation with twice the reach resulting in superior ferrous separation. P-Rex's deep reach and exceptionally large pick up zone enable it to capture heavy ferrous metals at a greater distance. A magnet's toughest challenge Spheres are the most difficult objects to capture magnetically. Add to that in scrap processing many of these objects contain nonferrous metals and wire making magnetic attraction even more difficult. P-Rex is up to the challenge... able to reach into the...
