Technical Specifications
The SGM Mega Drum Magnet (MDM) is a special version of the SGM electro-drum magnet (TMR) designed with a larger ferrous core section and lower current density to further optimize ferrous attraction and meet the most demanding car shredder application situations in terms of tons of scrap to process per hour and requirement for a continuous use. The MDM are typically positioned above the feeder (either belt or shaker pan) attracting ferrous material from a distance. The exceptional attraction performance of the MDM allows it to optimize the distance from feeder to drum shell. Which offers opportunity for the non-ferrous material (shredder residue) to drop, considering that the largest pieces of ferrous start taking-off towards the drum magnet from over 1,270 mm distance. As a standard, the MDM is provided with a double manganese steel shell (10 mm for inner shell + 8 mm for outer shell) for easy replacement of outer shell in case of wear and an inside counter weight to facilitate the positioning process of magnet polarities.
MDM Models
SGM Magnetics produces 9 MDM models of electromagnetic drum separators, each of which has specific:
- Lengths
- Diameter of magnets and side flanges
- Weight and power of magnets
- Speed of rotation of the drum
- Maximum working distance between drum and shredded car residues
- Number of slats on the outermost casing
- Engine force required
