STEINERT WDB-D

Magnetic dewatering drums

Transforming traditional wet ferromagnetic recovery circuits

Custom designed and built, these unique magnetic drum solutions are ideal for Magnetite dewatering plants. They can also be utilised in parallel with existing dewatering equipment.

Traditionally, the concentrate is pumped from the finisher magnetic separator to the thickener. The underflow from the thickener would then be pumped to the filters, and the conveyor would transport the concentrated to the stockpile. The STEINERT WDB-D magnetic dewatering drum solution removes the need to have these concentrate thickening tanks, hence saving space on a mine site or port facility.

These drums consist of powerful rare earth magnets with widths up to 2m - and are available with either our high strength rare earth magnetic element (MIMS) or the low intensity magnetic element (LIMS), with a nominal throughput of up to 70m3/h/m.

Your benefits:

  • Low capital outlay
  • Small and flexible footprint
  • Compact support structure
  • Operating cost comparable with conventional magnetic separation technologies
  • Simple commissioning
  • Reliable and robust mechanical design
  • Significant redundancy capability plant keeps operating
