Testing the sorting ability of an electromagnetic dry powder magnetic
separator is a key step in ensuring its normal operation and meeting production
requirements. The following are commonly used methods for testing sorting
ability:
1、 Sample preparation
Firstly, prepare the material samples to be processed. The sample should
represent the materials processed in actual production, and it is necessary to
understand the physical properties of the materials (such as particle size,
magnetism, humidity, etc.), which helps to ensure the accuracy of the test
results.
2、 Determine test parameters
According to the model and design requirements of the electromagnetic dry
powder magnetic separator, set appropriate working parameters such as
electromagnetic field strength, vibration frequency, material passing speed,
etc. These parameters will directly affect the sorting effect, so they should be
set according to the equipment manual or actual requirements before testing.
3、 Perform preliminary sorting
Start the equipment and perform preliminary material handling. Evenly feed
the material into the feed inlet of the magnetic separator to ensure stable
material flow and prevent blockage or overload. Record various operational data
during the sorting process, such as feed quantity, processing speed, etc.
4、 Collect sorting results
During the sorting process, the magnetic and non-magnetic materials from the
magnetic separator are separated and discharged, and their quality and quantity
are compared and analyzed. These data can be used to calculate recovery rate,
sorting accuracy, and other sorting performance indicators.
5、 Analyze the sorting effect
Evaluate the sorting effect of the magnetic separator by analyzing the
sorting results. The main evaluation indicators include:
-Recovery rate: refers to the ratio of effectively recovered magnetic
materials to the total magnetic materials.
-Removal rate: refers to the proportion of magnetic impurities separated from
non-magnetic materials.
-Sorting accuracy: Evaluate the discrimination between magnetic and
non-magnetic materials during the sorting process to determine if there has been
a misclassification.
6、 Experimental adjustment
According to the preliminary test results, the working parameters of the
electromagnetic dry powder magnetic separator can be adjusted, such as changing
the current intensity, magnetic field gradient, etc., to further optimize the
sorting effect. Through multiple experimental adjustments, the optimal operating
conditions were found to ensure the best performance of the equipment in actual
production.
7、 Data recording and reporting
After completing the test, detailed test data should be recorded and a report
should be generated. The report should include the working parameters of the
equipment, test results, sorting capability analysis, and possible optimization
suggestions. Based on these data, decide whether adjustments or maintenance are
needed for the equipment.
Through the above testing steps, the sorting ability of the electromagnetic
dry powder magnetic separator can be effectively evaluated, ensuring that it
achieves the expected results in actual production and providing a basis for
further equipment optimization and improvement.
