High-performance NdFeB and ferrite magnetic systems for reliable metal recovery, material purification and equipment protection.
Engineering
Permanent magnets at the core of modern sorting processes
In recycling and processing plants, field strength, reach and magnetic geometry determine how reliably ferrous valuables and contaminants are removed from continuous material streams.
Spacemagnets Europe develops and supplies NdFeB and ferrite magnets as well as ready-to-install magnetic assemblies for overband separators, magnetic drums, head pulleys and customer-specific separation systems.
High recovery
Purpose-engineered magnetic fields capture ferrous parts reliably, even at high throughput.
Clean material streams
Reliable separation improves product purity and protects downstream processes.
Energy efficient
Permanent-magnet systems generate the working field without continuous electrical excitation.
Robust design
Material, coating and assembly are matched to dust, moisture, impact and continuous operation.
What matters in magnets for separation technology
Material & particle size
Particle size, bulk density and material distribution influence the required penetration depth.
Temperature stability
The magnet grade is selected to suit ambient and process temperatures.
Mechanical security
Encapsulation, retention and joining technology secure the magnets against vibration and impact.
Corrosion protection
Suitable coatings and stainless-steel housings protect against moisture and aggressive media.
Series consistency
Documented magnetic and dimensional testing ensures repeatable separation performance.
Magnetic solutions for different separation duties
Permanent overband magnets
Extended magnetic reach for continuous removal of ferrous parts above conveyors, chutes and material transfer points.
Magnetic drums & head pulleys
Compact integration into continuous conveying processes for cleaning and recovering ferromagnetic constituents.
High-intensity NdFeB systems
High flux density for small, weakly magnetic or difficult-to-reach metal particles where space is limited.
Custom magnetic assemblies
Mechanically secured magnetic modules, pole systems and housings matched to the machine, material stream and maintenance concept.
Key design parameters
Reliable system design starts with the actual material stream and the required separation result.
| Parameter | Impact on design |
|---|---|
| Material type and bulk density | Determine the required field strength and magnetic penetration depth. |
| Particle size and burden depth | Influence working distance, pole pitch and achievable separation efficiency. |
| Throughput and belt width | Define the active magnetic area, assembly size and mechanical integration. |
| Contaminant size and target purity | Determine magnet grade, geometry and the required design margin. |
