A Hammermill Feeder with Magnetic Separation is a system designed to feed raw materials into a hammermill while removing ferrous metal contaminants using magnets. This setup helps protect the hammermill from damage caused by metal debris and ensures a cleaner final product.
Key Components:
1. Feeder System
– Ensures controlled and consistent material flow into the hammermill.
– Types include vibratory, screw, or belt feeders.
2. Magnetic Separator
– Removes ferrous metals (iron, steel) before material enters the hammermill.
– Common types:
– Suspended Plate Magnet – Installed above the conveyor belt.
– Magnetic Drum Separator – Rotating drum that attracts and removes metals.
– In-Line Magnetic Separator – Placed in the feed chute.
3. Hammermill Grinder
– Pulverizes material using rotating hammers.
– Metal-free feedstock reduces wear on hammers and screens.
Benefits:
– Prevents costly damage to hammers, screens, and bearings.
– Improves product purity bemoving metal contaminants.
– Extends equipment lifespan and reduces maintenance downtime.
Applications:
– Grain processing (corn, wheat, soybeans)
– Biomass & wood grinding
– Recycling (e.g., paper, plastics)
– Feed & food production
Considerations When Choosing:
– Material flow rate
– Size of ferrous contaminants
– Installation space (overhead vs. in-line magnets)
